Background

On October 22, 2002, by Resolution No. 65620, the Board of Supervisors authorized the County Manager's Office to execute an agreement with Turner Construction Company to provide construction management, architectural and engineering services for the San Mateo County Youth Services Center. The Master Plan approved by the Board on December 3, 2002 included the design and construction of all building components.

 

Discussion

The contract with Turner provides for construction management, architectural and engineering services. Under this contract, the County receives and accepts bids for the construction work from trade contractors. Upon determination of the lowest responsive, responsible bidder the County will assign the bids to Turner who will execute a contract with the trade contractors. The assignment is accomplished by execution of an Assignment of Bid form and a revision order to Turner's contract. Bid packages were advertised and bid by the County in full compliance with the Public Contract Code. Bids were received May 14 and 20, 2004 and have been reviewed by the construction manager and the County. The bid results are listed in Exhibit A. The basis of award is the base bid plus unit prices plus all alternates. The award amount is the base bid plus unit prices plus accepted alternates. It is recommended to accept and assign the bids to Turner of Galetti & Sons for Bid Packages 9 and 10, concrete reinforcing; Bratton Masonry for Bid Packages 11 and 12, masonry; Allied Fire Protection for Bid Package 41, fire protection; Cupertino Electric for Bid Page 43, electrical; and Lassco Sound & Systems for Bid Package 45, security electronics.

Equipment purchases were advertised by the County and are being coordinated through Turner Logistics, part of Turner Construction Co. Bids for plumbing fixtures have been received and an award for $462,285 is recommended.

The County's Builders Risk Policy for this project does not include terrorism coverage. Article 10.6 of the agreement with Turner acknowledges that the County is accepting the risk of terrorist related matters. Revision Order 6 amends the agreement with Turner Construction Co. to clarify the responsibility of the construction manager and the County in this matter.

 

Vision Alignment

The construction of the San Mateo County Youth Services Center keeps the commitment of "Ensure basic health and safety for all" and goal number eight: "Help vulnerable people--the aged, disabled, mentally ill, at-risk youth and others--achieve a better quality of life". This project contributes to the commitment and goal by consolidating youth services in one location in a new state-of-the-art facility to benefit youth, families, staff, and community.

 

Fiscal Impact

The project budget is $125 million. This project is funded by the sale of lease revenue bonds.

This revision order will amend the contract as follows:
