Background:

SUBJECT:   Award Construction Contract and Appropriate/Re-allocate Funds

                   P^2MG, LLC dba P2MG, LLC

                   HPD – Parking Lot Expansion – South Gessner

                      WBS No. G-000140-0001-4-02-01

 

RECOMMENDATION:  Approve an Ordinance (i) awarding a construction contract to P^2MG, LLC dba P2MG, LLC; (ii) re-allocating $300,000 out of the Police Consolidated Construction Fund (previously appropriated by Ordinance No. 2013-1059) and appropriating the sum of $1,370,300 for construction services at South Gessner Police Station parking lot expansion for Houston Police Department.

 

SPECIFIC EXPLANATION: The General Services Department recommends that City Council award a construction contract to P^2MG, LLC dba P2MG, LLC on its low bid amount of $1,228,000.00 to provide construction services for the South Gessner Police Station parking lot expansion for the Houston Police Department. The apparent low bidder, IKLO Construction failed to establish Good Faith Efforts to meet the advertised M/WBE goal, as determined by the Office of Business Opportunity and was withdrawn from the process.

 

On November 13, 2013, Ordinance No. 2013-1059, City Council authorized the appropriation of $300,000 out of the Police Consolidated Construction Fund to the Task Order and Job Order Contracting Program for FY2014 for expansion of the South Gessner Police Station parking lot.  The scope of work has increased and it is appropriate to bid the work and re-allocate the funds to this contract.
