Vendor: F.H. Paschen
Extension Amount: $2,337,100
Extended to: 7/1/2022 through 10/28/2022
The scope of the emergency purchase has not changed since the original request. However, the schedule has been extended due to finalization of custom design for each room and unprecedented supply chain and manpower issues. Long lead times for some items (light fixtures for example) have resulted in the need to re-specify products and identify alternate sources. Using a competitive bidding process at this point would cause a significant delay in the schedule, derail the good faith effort and further delay the provision of accessible rooms for patients. JOC Contractor has proceeded with shop drawings, subcontractor agreements and procurement of materials. The JOC Contractor would need to be reimbursed for all materials and efforts expended to date. This would result in a significant cost increase to the project.
A hearing is scheduled June 21, 2022, 1:30-2:00 p.m.
