Summary Explanation/Background
THE AVIATION DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
This action approves the First Amendment to the Agreement between Broward County and AVCON, Inc. (“Agreement”).
AVCON, Inc. (“AVCON”) provides consultant services to perform pre-design, design, construction administration, and resident project representative services for landside and airside utility and pavement projects at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (“FLL”) and North Perry Airport (“HWO”).
On September 20, 2022 (Item No. 71C), the Board approved the Agreement for an initial three-year term, with two one-year renewal terms, in the maximum not-to-exceed amount of $7,000,000, which included $250,000 for reimbursables.
The Office of Economic and Small Business Development established a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise ("DBE") goal of 10% for this project. AVCON committed to 28% DBE participation. To date, AVCON has been paid $1,301,090, and has paid DBE firms $324,970, for 24.98% participation (Exhibit 2).
Additional funding for this Agreement is required for completion of existing projects and planned future projects. These projects include HWO’s Separated Shared Use Path, FLL’s Utilities Improvement, the Remote Transmitter/Receivers Relocation, and the design of the Sewer Connections at HWO.
The proposed First Amendment will provide funding for continued consultant services, increasing labor by $2,950,000, from $6,750,000 to $9,700,000, and increasing reimbursables by $50,000, from $250,000 to $300,000, for a total increase of $3,000,000, for a revised total maximum not-to-exceed Agreement amount of $10,000,000, and update certain terms in the Agreement.
The proposed First Amendment has been reviewed and approved as to form by the Office of the County Attorney.
