Rationale:

This is to award a general construction contract as referenced above as per the attached emergency declaration issued by the Superintendent on March 6, 2017. Bids are not required under an emergency declaration. However, bids were garnered for “base work” documented and quantified by Traveler’s Insurance. This base work was a starting point dollar-wise for returning all the office framing, sheetrock, flooring, ceilings, electric, etc. to its original construction materials and layout. Bid documents were issued to five known BOE contractors. Bertussi’s was selected by the Facilities Department because of their price and more than satisfactory history with the District. Another bidder came in higher and three contactors declined to participate. On May 26, 2017, Bertussi’s occupied the site and began work on a time and material and negotiated lump sum basis for certain tasks and has been working as needed to allow the school to re-occupy the restored and renovated office space by the end of September. The initial engineer’s estimate for the entire project was $3.5 million. However, the overall project final cost is closer to $3.0 million. This amount, minus insurance payments to date (negotiations continue) of $800,000 yields an SED aidable sum of $2,200,000.00. The current aid ration is roughly 0.70 which yields an approximate local share of $660,000.00. The actual final cost for Bertussi is $2,533,372.93 which is the accepted value of completed work. |
