Change Order: Final Design for Mid-Valley Connector - Change Order #04 (Jacobs Engineering)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute Change Order 4 to the contract and associated disbursements with Jacobs Engineering in the amount of $871,826 for design work on the Mid-Valley Connector project.
BACKGROUND:
On December 15, 2021, the UTA Board approved the award of a sole source contract to Jacobs Engineering to finalize the design and prepare the Mid-Valley Connector Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project for advertisement. Through a Taylorsville City contract, Jacobs had completed the environmental assessment and preliminary design for the project. Since Jacobs was familiar with the project, the stakeholders and UTA felt that they should perform the final design on the project. The UTA Sole Source Committee approved the sole source award to Jacobs on the basis of substantial duplication of costs. The contract time was extended in early 2023 to incorporate anticipated consultant needs during the construction phase of the project.
DISCUSSION:
This change order includes additional scope modifications for future efforts to complete the final plans and specifications, and management support through the contractor bidding process. This change order also includes supplemental scope items that have been requested by stakeholders since the latest design package was released.
