File Number: 23-594 the amount of $1,655,573.60. The engineer’s estimate for the project was $1,460,544.60. Staff recommends award of the contract to Tricon Construction, Inc. in the amount of $1,655,573.60. The bid is responsive, and staff verified that the contractor’s license is current with the Contract’s State License Board, and the contractor is registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations. This project is subject to the provisions of the Community Workforce Agreement (CWA). The contractor’s bid did not comply with the Local Inclusion Policy Ordinance because the amount of the contract that is subcontracted to San Leandro businesses is less than 25% of the contract value. However, the contractor performed good faith efforts to include San Leandro businesses in the project and documentation of those efforts were included in the bid package. In adherence to standard practices in the construction industry, staff diligently assessed the balance between the expenses involved in conducting a comprehensive site investigation and the potential costs stemming from unforeseen circumstances during construction. Consequently, modifications to the contract's scope may arise due to new or unexpected essential elements crucial to the project's successful completion. To mitigate potential project delays, ensure adaptability to unforeseen situations, and guarantee the delivery of a high-quality project, staff requests that the City Council authorize the City Manager or her designee to negotiate and approve individual change orders up to 10% (or $165,557) of the original contract amount. Additionally, staff seeks authorization to negotiate and approve cumulative change orders of up to 25% (or $413,893) of the original contract amount. This provision will streamline the project's efficient completion and adhere to the budget and schedule. Current Agency Policies ·Maintain and enhance City’s infrastructures.
