Susan Olsen, Director Procurement Services
DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On January 4, 2023, the Board approved a Task Order to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (KHA) to provide engineering design services to design and permit a 16-inch waterline and a 10-inch force main for Marion County Utilities (MCU), which included servicing areas from NW 44th Avenue, beneath I-75, to the Baldwin Area east of I-75.
Change Order 1 is being presented to add an additional $44,040 to Purchase Order 02300714 for KHA to provide additional engineering services associated with the project as approved by MCU. The additional engineering services being provided, support the project design efforts after the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) revised the roadway improvement project’s delivery method from a design-bid build to a design-build method. In addition, the firm will be required to continue ongoing coordination with FDOT during the design-build process, which will include minor revisions to the plans, as required. The FDOT revised the project delivery method after 90% utilities improvement plans had been developed and submitted to FDOT.
Attached for review is a copy of the Change Order 1. Pending approval today, the change order will be presented for signatures from the Chair and Clerk.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; additional expenditure of $44,040 bringing the total purchase order amount to $142,853. Funding is from line ZF448536-563102 (Marion County Utility Fund) Project UTC000059.
