The proposed Modification No. 1 to Contract DCAM-24-CS-RFP-0003 with GCS, Inc., dba GCS-SIGAL, aims to establish a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) of $21,112,874 for the Construction Management At-Risk Services for the Southeast Tennis & Learning Center South Campus. This modification increases the contract's Not-to-Exceed (NTE) amount from $3,990,000 to $15,990,000, allowing the contractor to proceed with construction while the Department of Parks and Recreation secures funding for the remaining GMP. The contractor is restricted from spending more than $15,990,000 without further authorization from a Contracting Officer and Council approval. The substantial completion date for the project is set for April 9, 2026.
The bill also outlines the approval process for capital reprogramming requests related to the modernization projects at the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center, requiring Council approval for any reprogramming of $1 million or more. It establishes a shared savings model for cost savings from the Construction Contingency, dividing savings between the Department and the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) on a 70/30 basis. The agreement emphasizes the CMAR's responsibilities, including adherence to project specifications and managing the project under a "fast-track" construction method, while ensuring that all prior agreements remain unaffected unless stated otherwise in this amendment.
