Summary: On October 26, 2010 the Board of Education approved a Design-Build contract with SunPower Corporation, Systems for $65,604,398.00 for the design, procurement, installation, training, operation, maintenance, monitoring and 20 year guaranteed performance of Photovoltaic Systems at fifty-one (51) District sites. On March 15, June 28 and December 13 of 2011 the Board of Education approved Pre-Commencement change orders for Increment 1, 2 and 3 sites respectively. These approved Pre-Commencement change orders resulted in a current, revised contract value of $75,002,009.53. These Pre-Commencement change orders were necessary as a result of a need to modify system designs to respond to: 1)District-directed increases in system size to address prospective Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) loads; 2)reconfigured solar array locations to accommodate established easements and emergency access routes; and 3)reconfigured array and inverter locations to accommodate site programs and hardcourt configurations.

As a result of post-commencement, District-requested additions/modifications to designed systems, unforeseen site conditions (e.g.subterranean obstructions, extraordinary groundwater conditions)as well as necessary repairs made to arrays damaged by(and invoiced)to others, staff is recommending approval of a Post-Commencement change order in the amount of $518,874.71 for all post-commencement changes associated with Increments 1 through 3A. This proposed change order will result in a revised contract value of $75,520,884.24.
