PHd Contract MISA0016-PC11 AMMENDMENT #01 dtd 05-24-11 r0.pdf
Summary: Given the need for new, enlarged, state of the art Chemistry classrooms at our high schools District staff is recommending that a 'pre-checked' (PC) design for a 1440 sq. ft. chemistry laboratory(with multiple iterations), be developed for current and future District use. In an effort to capture significant reductions in design costs, staff is additionally recommending that the Board now consider the authorization of an amendment to a contract previously awarded to PHd Architects on April 12, 2011 for the design (and multiple iterations thereof) of a 1440 sq. ft General Science Classroom. By consolidating and leveraging the basic design tasks needed in the development of both classroom designs, the net cost for the design of a new 1440 sq. ft. high school chemistry laboratory (with multiple iterations)with fixed student work stations would be dramatically reduced.

The original contract for the engineering and design of the 1440 sq. ft. General Science Classroom was approved by the Board of Education on April 12, 2011 for a 'not to exceed' value of $59,500. Staff has negotiated a 'not to exceed' fee of $40,000 for comprehensive design services related to the provision of a 1440 sq. ft. high school chemistry laboratory PC with multiple iterations. The revised value of the amended contract would be $99,000.00
