BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Approval of Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 21-440 will provide additional compensation to 4D Surface Management Inc. in the amount of $33,500 for the change in materials. Change Order No. 1 is composed of an added cost to install rebar and concrete in lieu of asphalt, and a credit for the asphalt no longer being installed. The use of concrete in place of asphalt will provide a drastically longer lifecycle, lower maintenance costs and will provide a cooler surface during peak hot weather in Barstow.
The Project will improve approximately 47,000 square feet of the acquired property located at 1161 West Main Street in Barstow into a parking lot with a net stall addition of 44 stalls, including landscaping, lighting, and accessible parking as required to better serve the employees and public served by PSD.
This Project is consistent with County Administrative Office approved Capital Improvement Program Request No. 21-168.
PROCUREMENT
On June 22, 2021 (Item No. 80), as the result of a successful competitive process, the Board of Supervisors awarded construction Contract No. 21-440 in the amount of $389,400 to 4D Surface Management Inc., the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
The unanticipated additional cost items in this change order are related to events that took place after the competitive bid process. Therefore, no additional procurement activities are required.
Per Public Contract Code sections 20136 and 20137, Board of Supervisors’ approval is required for this change order to the contract with 4D Surface Management Inc.
