SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve Construction Documents and Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the Student Nutrition Services Operations Center Build-Out (Phase 2) at Silo Bend
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On November 17, 2015, the Board approved the lease for a Student Nutrition Services (SNS) Operations Center at Silo Bend. Relocation to Silo Bend will enable SNS to consolidate administrative functions, production sites, training services, and equipment storage into one centralized location, and most importantly, will allow SNS to improve the quality of its service to students and staff.

Remodeling of the leased space is required to support SNS requirements. The landlord is accomplishing Phase 1 of the remodeling which supports relocation of the SNS staff to the leased facility. Staff selected Rowe Architects Incorporated and Williams Company Tampa from the approved Continuing Services Consultants list to provide design and construction management services for Phase 2, which provides training facilities, production and demonstration kitchens, a café, and warehouse space. The Board previously approved a contract for the food service equipment for the production and demonstration kitchens.

Approval of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) will establish the cost for the Phase 2 work.

Project completion is scheduled for July 29, 2016.
