The proposed Modification No. 3 to Contract No. DCAM-24-CS-RFP-0003 with GCS, Inc., dba GCS-SIGAL seeks to increase the contract's not-to-exceed amount by $7,010,000, raising the total from $15,990,000 to $23,000,000. This modification is essential for the completion of the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center South Campus expansion project, which involves demolition, earthwork, and special foundation work. The substantial completion date is set for June 24, 2026, and the modification will authorize the contractor to proceed with the remaining work. The Department of General Services has confirmed that the modification is within the appropriated budget authority and that the contractor is compliant with all legal and tax obligations.

Furthermore, the modification increases the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) to $23,000,000, which includes the additional funding necessary to address unforeseen site conditions, specifically soil contamination requiring remediation. The final completion date is also extended to May 31, 2026. While $7,010,000 is approved for capital-eligible items, there is an ineligible amount of $207,865 that cannot be expended until operating funds are available, and the contractor is restricted from performing work related to these ineligible items without prior authorization. The modification also includes a release of claims by the contractor against the Department for any delays or additional costs, ensuring the project can move forward while addressing unforeseen challenges and maintaining budgetary compliance.
