RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute a contract with Floortec Commercial Floor Covering Solutions in an amount not to exceed $188,814 for the replacement of flooring as part of the remodeling project for the Sheriff-Coroner's Office, Forensic Division at 2530 Arnold Drive, Martinez.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of the replacement flooring will be paid from funds appropriated in the Plant Acquisition (General Fund) budget.

BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff’-Coroner's Forensic Division (Crime Lab) is relocating from 1122 Escobar Street in Martinez to the Summit Centre located at 2530 Arnold Drive in Martinez. The cost of the specialized flooring for the remodeling project is $188,814. The flooring will be purchased using the California Multiple Award Schedules Agreement (CMAS), and includes all labor and materials costs. The CMAS agreement allows public agencies to contract directly with a CMAS contractor when the material is CMAS approved. There is no need for the public agency to go out to bid, as the State has already performed this function and the price has been established. Floortec is an authorized contractor under the CMAS agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The new flooring is a necessary element of the remodel project as this highly resilient flooring provides the required protection for work completed in a lab environment. Without the flooring the project will not be able to proceed.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
