Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to Agreements 156010 with DNG Construction, LLC and 156011 with Valley Rain Construction Corporation to provide continued Landscape Construction Job Order Contract Services for capital projects citywide and to authorize execution of Job Order Agreements in an amount not to exceed $4 million each. Further request to authorize execution of amendments to the agreement as necessary within the Council-approved expenditure authority as provided below, and for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item.
Report
Summary
The purpose of this Job Order Contract (JOC) is to provide construction or placement of park structures, restrooms, storage facilities, ramadas, and park furniture; construction of multi-use trails and pedestrian bridges; installation of sports fields to include natural and artificial turf, replacement or new installation of concrete curbs, gutters, sidewalks, sport courts, and asphalt paving; removal and replacement of existing landscape; installation of new irrigation systems; solar lighting and enhancement projects; and irrigation, flooding, and water remediation projects delivered through individual Job Order Agreements (JOA) on capital projects citywide.
This amendment is necessary because unprecedented inflation and cost increases for labor and materials within the industry has led to significant cost escalation for construction projects to be completed. The current JOCs have a $2 million per JOA cap. The increase to a $4 million per JOA cap will allow for execution of numerous Parks and Recreation Department Capital Improvement Program projects, which are completed by utilizing this JOC. This amendment will allow for Job Order Agreements to be executed at a fee not to exceed $4 million each.
Contract Term
The contract term of five years remains unchanged. Work scope identified and incorporated into the agreement prior to the end of the term may be agreed to by the parties, and work may extend past the termination of the agreement. No additional changes may be executed after the end of the term.
Financial Impact
The initial agreement value for each of the Citywide Landscape Construction JOCs was approved for an amount not to exceed $35 million, including all subcontractor and reimbursable costs. The agreement value for each JOC remains unchanged.
