Change Order: Ogden/WSU Bus Rapid Transit Change Order #8 - Bus Chargers (Stacy & Witbeck, Inc.)
end

AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order

RECOMMENDATION:
Approve contract change order and authorize Executive Director to execute a change order and associated disbursements with Stacy & Witbeck Inc. (SWI) in the amount of $1,082,169

BACKGROUND:
In 2019, UTA released a best value procurement for construction of the Ogden/WSU Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project. Bids were received and evaluated, and SWI was awarded the CM/GC contract. An amendment to the contract was awarded March 19, 2021 for the construction of the project.

DISCUSSION:
As part of the Ogden/WSU BRT project, Electric Buses and chargers are being purchased. Chargers include on-route chargers and chargers at the Mt Ogden Business Unit (MOBU). The current SWI contract includes the installation of the on-route chargers, but in order for the buses to be fully functional the MOBU chargers must also be installed. This change order will add the installation of chargers at the MOBU into the scope of the CM/GC contract. UTA has received a grant from Rocky Mountain Power to help with the costs for the chargers and installation. In order to receive this grant, the chargers need to be installed by November 2021. This change order will help us meet that deadline. SWI installed chargers at SL Central and can construct the infrastructure and install the chargers in a timely manner.
