SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the Phase Two Referendum (Year One) Project at Durant High School (Operations Division)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On February 5, 2019, District staff selected Ranon & Partners, Inc. and Creative Contractors, Inc. to provide design and construction management services, respectively, through a selection committee.  Award was made based upon the score granted by the selection committee.  Due to the magnitude of the scope of work, this project has been divided into two phases at Folsom Elementary School.

In an effort to improve the heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system as quickly as possible, the project has been divided in two phases.  Phase One consisted of partial HVAC, exit device replacement and exterior painting.  Phase Two of the project includes the replacement of the air handling units, electrical upgrades, door hardware and interior finishes.

Approval of the Phase Two GMP will establish the maximum cost for this phase of the project.

Phase Two project substantial completion is currently scheduled for July 31, 2020.

FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted:  Yes)
The GMP recommended for approval of Phase Two is $4,053,305, which is in the Sales Tax Referendum fund.
