Dave Lazo stated that a cost verification study was conducted to review the contractor’s cost proposal. The contract is a cost plus contract with a guaranteed maximum price. PBS&J has been retained to perform construction management and a cost verification. There is a variance of approximately 2 ½% between the contractor’s proposal and market prices. This type of variance is reasonable. The construction contract is comprised of several cost plus items in which the contractor is compensated for time and materials plus a fee. Within the contract, there are some sub trades which are lump-sum or stipulated-sum contracts. The amount of the hard construction costs is $45,392,000. In addition to that, there are markups for builders risk insurance of $85,000, contractor’s overhead of $1.8 million (approximately 4% of the construction amount). Contractor profit is $945,000 (approximately 2% of the construction value). The contractor is not marking up the profit on the equipment purchase for the Baggage Handling System equipment. That is shown as a credit of $351,000. The last item is a contractor performance and payment bond which is standard and is a percentage of the construction value at $225,000. There is also a $5 million contingency controlled by the Airport Authority that is for 01/17/08 Page 4 unforeseen conditions, owner-directed changes or changes in the scope of work. There is $6.5 million for soft costs which include design contract administration, construction management and administration and overhead for the Airport. The estimated total project costs are $59,617,407. The contract contains a value engineering provision that allows the contractor to propose cost savings that would be split between the Airport Authority and the contractor on a 50/50 basis if agreed to by the Airport Authority. In addition, there is a shared savings clause whereby the contractor and Airport Authority would share in any efficiencies and savings of actual cost, 25% to the contractor and 75% to the Airport Authority up to maximum of $300,000. The schedule from start to completion is 687 calendar days. The point of substantial completion, which is beneficial occupancy of the new facility by the Airport, is 600 days. At that point, liquidated damages would be incurred by the contractor in the amount of $2,500 per day.
