FISCAL IMPACT:
100% Funding from Enterprise I Patient Revenues.
BACKGROUND:
The Affordable Care Act and other recent legislation have resulted in a significant increase in the number of Contra Costa residents who are eligible for subsidized County health services. The proposed expansion at the Pittsburg Health Center will provide the resources required to meet this demand.
The project includes remodeling of approximately 5,900 square feet of interior clinic space located on the 2nd floor of the Pittsburg Health Center at 2311 Loveridge Road, Pittsburg. The scope of work will include demolition of existing interior walls and construction of new walls, ceilings, flooring, lighting, plumbing, mechanical and electrical work.
The construction cost estimate is $2,064,000, and the general prevailing wage rates will be the minimum rates paid on this project. Bids were received and opened by the Public Works Department on May 19, 2016, and the bid results are as follows:
|
BIDDER |
BASE BID |
ADDITIVE
ALTERNATE NO. 1 |
|
C. Overaa & Co., Richmond |
$1,365,000 |
$9,000 |
|
Vila Construction Co., Richmond |
$1,473,319 |
$10,745 |
All base bids were below the consultants preliminary construction cost estimate of $2,064,000. Overaa submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid of $1,374,000 (Base Bid plus Additive Alternate No. 1), which is $110,064 less the next lowest bid submitted by Vila Construction Co. Staff has determined that Overaa's bid is responsive and their good faith effort documentation complies with the County's Outreach Program. Staff recommends that the bid be awarded to Overaa in the amount of $1,374,000.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the project is not approved, the facility will be unable to meet the needs of the increased number of Contra Costa County residents eligible for subsidized health services.
