Njj% COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT 74'C-('
FROM: Bob Neumann, Fire Chief'•-'% Prepared by: Viv R. Dilts
SUBJECT: Request for Proposal - Construction Management/Division of State Architect
(DSA) Certified Resident Inspection Services
CAO RECOMMENDATIONS
By motion:
1) Authorize the CAO to release a Request for Proposal to provide Construction Management/DSA
Certified Resident Inspection Services during the construction phase of the new Headquarters
Fire Station.
2) Authorize the CAO to award and execute an agreement with successful proposer, if the
proposal is $110,000 or less.
DISCUSSION
On September 1, 1992, the City Council authorized the CAO to approve and execute a contract with
VANIR Construction Management, Inc., for architectural negotiations and programming phase
services for a new Headquarters Fire Station. Council agreed, at that time, not to authorize the use
of VANIR Construction for construction management services. Council requested that the further
use of VANIR be presented to Council in conjunction with the final construction contract. VANIR
has stated that it does not wish to continue its construction management responsibilities into the
construction phase of this project.
Essential services buildings are unique and require greater expertise, skills and knowledge than that
of a regular construction project. They are defined in the State Building Code as "buildings
designed and constructed to resist gravity forces, to minimize fire hazards and to resist, insofar as
practical, the forces generated by winds and major earthquakes of the intensity and severity of the
strongest anticipated at the building site without catastrophic collapse ... capable of providing
essential services to the public after a disaster."
The State requires that no work on an essential services facility be carried out except under the
inspection of a project inspector. It is very specific as to what it deems the qualifications of a
project inspector should be: at least three years of equivalent experience in construction work of a
similar type, thorough knowledge of building materials and the ability to read and interpret plans
and specifications.
Early on, the Fire Department, City Engineering Department, and Building Department decided that
City staff lacked the expertise and time to coordinate the construction and inspection of this essential
services building. It was determined that hiring a construction management firm to run the project
would save both money and staff time. The staff has designed a contract that will require the
project inspector to interact with the normally assigned City Building Inspector thus minimizing
duplication of inspections.
City Of San LUIS OBISPO
Mi;% COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
In addition to being the project inspector for State code compliance, this firm would oversee
construction. Responsibilities would include:
■ Coordinate Fire Department, Planning Department, Architect/Engineer, Review/Approval
Authorities and Secondary Facility Users in activities concerning the control of time, cost and
quality for the planning, design and construction of the project.
■ Lad in matters regarding the project schedule, budget, procedures and administration of the
construction contracts for the City.
■ Make recommendations concerning project planning, design, contract document preparation and
construction administration.
CONCURRENCES
VANIR Construction Management, Inc., has reviewed this Request for Proposal and concurs that it
is a necessary component of the project. The City's Chief Building Official has reviewed this
suggested approach and also concurs.
FISCAL PUPACT
The project currently has $110,000 allocated for inspection services.
