Approve Construction Documents and Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for Transportation Maintenance Facility Upgrades at Two Sites (East Bay, Airport Road)

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

To improve Transportation Department operations and staff working conditions, remodeling and expansion of Transportation maintenance facilities at East Bay and Airport Road in Plant City is required. District staff combined the requirements at the two sites into a single project and appointed Wilder Architecture, Inc. and The A. D. Morgan Corporation from the approved Continuing Services Consultants list to provide design and construction management services. The scope of work provides for additional maintenance bays and parts storage within a new pre-engineered metal building at each site. The scope also includes a covered quick service area at the East Bay site; a new employee break area at the Airport Road site; and paving and drainage improvements at both sites.  Additional detail is provided in an attachment.

Approval of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) will establish the cost for the project.

Project completion is scheduled for August 2015.
