Procurement Contract/Change Order

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute Change Order No. 31 and associated disbursements with Big-D Construction in the amount of $2,604,560.                      

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

In June 2018, UTA released a request for procurement (RFP) for the construction of the Depot District Clean Fuels Technology Center. This facility will replace the existing aging and undersized Central bus facility and will house up to 150 alternative and standard fuel buses with the ability to expand to 250 buses in the future.  This contract first came to the board for approval of a change order for phase 2/GMP 1 on June 19, 2019. Rocky Mountain Power requires UTA to install underground conduit and vaults so they can provide wiring and equipment to provide the necessary power for the new facility.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

This change order is to provide underground conduit and vaults from the parking lot out to 200 South and along 200 South to 600 West. Big-D Construction obtained pricing from three separate, qualified subcontractors. They are proposing to use the subcontractor that proposed the lowest cost.

A Direction or Authorization to Proceed (DAP) has been issued in the amount of $199,000 to order the precast concrete vaults and other materials which can take several weeks to deliver to the site. The DAP will also allow them to perform utility test holes to verify the locations of other underground facilities in the area and start obtaining the necessary permits for the work.  This change order also includes a contract time extension from March 10, 2023 to May 12, 2023.
