Title
Centennial Park Aquatic Center (CPAC) Activity Pool Gutter Repairs - Change Orders
History
On March 5, 2019, RFP 19-006 "Centennial Park Aquatic Center (CPAC) Activity Pool Gutter Repairs" was issued by the Parks & Grounds Department. The Village Board approved the selection of the lowest qualified bidder, Schaefges Brothers, Inc. of Wheeling, IL, on June 17, 2019.
The total bid price submitted by Schaefges Brothers, Inc. was for $166,850.00. As there was the potential for change orders due to uncertainty with the location of some of the piping where saw cutting will take place, staff requested the remaining budgeted amount of $58,150 be allocated for this project as a contingency, bringing the total RFP award to $225,000.
The following change orders are necessary to ensure the successful completion of the project:
- Concrete sidewalk repairs to repair cracks and meet ADA requirements ($49,294.00)
- Replacement of Uni-struts for pool piping ($1,589.00)
- Replacement of stainless steel line anchors ($1,709.59)
- Removal of sand from perimeter trench drain ($3,173.00)
Changes to the contractual scope of the work result in a total cost increase of $55,765.59; and in accordance with 720 ILCS 5/33 E-9 regarding Change Orders to the Contract:
a) The above referenced Change Order increases the Contract sum by more than $10,000.00;
b) These Change Orders (a) are made necessary by circumstances not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed; (b) are germane to the Contract as originally signed; and
c) are in the best interests of the Village.
