Description
Under the terms of the 5/1/12 (Item #21) Board approved "Agreement between Owner and Construction Manager for Pre-Construction & Bidding Services", the Director of Construction Services and a member of the Professional Services Selection Committee (PSSC) have successfully negotiated a contract with Jon F. Swift, Inc. for Phase 1 of the Booker Middle School - HVAC Renovation project. As indicated, the 5/1/12 agreement included pre-construction and bidding services only. The scope of this contract, Phase 1, will include the replacement of the main HVAC plant. The project in its entirety will consist of four (4) phases in total due to the funding structure. The remaining three (3) phases were bid with Phase 1; therefore, those costs are secured and detailed in the contract as alternate phases. The future alternate phases will be contracted via Change Order based on the funding schedule. This contract was negotiated on May 7, 2012, and this contract amount is $1,372,720.00.

The School Board attorney has approved the use of this GMP proposal acceptance form and contract. Funds for this contract are available in the capital fund.
