BACKGROUND:
The City Council awarded Contract 24-146 to CDM Smith, Inc. on May 7, 2024, with a completion date of December 31, 2025.
The purpose of this contract is to provide construction management services for the Springbrook Water Reclamation Center Influent Pump Station and South Plant Force Main construction contract. The construction contract was awarded to Williams Brothers, Inc. on November 7, 2023 with a final completion date of May 31, 2025.
DISCUSSION:
This Change Order is requested to extend the contract completion date from December 31, 2025 to December 31, 2026.
This is a time extension request due to work and equipment delays. The time extension on the construction contract (File #25-0703) necessitates a time extension request on the construction management contract. A completion date of December 31, 2026 will allow CDM Smith to inspect for punch list items throughout the contractor’s one-year warranty period and submit any deficient items for correction.
CDM Smith has demonstrated a good faith effort to push the contractor to complete the work as efficiently as possible.
Staff recommends extending the completion date from December 31, 2025 to December 31, 2026.
