Change Order
Published Friday September 26, 2014
Vendor: Holabird & Root
Change Order Amount: $0

Revised completion date of 06-30-2015. The circumstances said to necessitate the change in performance were not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed. As the vendor (the Architect/Engineer) was finishing the project design, the building was experiencing electrical problems, wiring and circuit failure, wiring changes and also went through electrical equipment changes. The vendor had to revise the project design which added extra time. The project has been bid and awarded to Contractors. The university has now proposed an estimated project construction end date of April 2015 with payments to the vendors about two months thereafter. This vendor, the Architect/Engineer, is necessary to continue throughout the construction phase as originally contracted. Therefore we are requesting this change order to extend their contract time only, to match the new estimated project end date. There were also upgrades in separate project which did not occur. Those upgrades were planned to have happened prior to this project. They did not occur nor are they going to cover all the electrical needs as expected. Therefore this project was affected and had to be redesigned by this vendor which added time to the project.

The University awarded a contract for Completion of Construction Project to Holabird & Root, Chicago, IL, for an estimated $226,500.
The University requires this service from this vendor to complete copyrighted work that was previously started by this vendor to provide construction documents and services. Vendor services could not be completed at the time due to grant fund ending. These documents would be used to obtain contractor bibs for the construction of spaces in Douglas Hall needed to meet the College of Pharmacy accreditation board requirements.
The University has determined that this purchase is only economically available from this source because the item or service is copyrighted or patented and is not available except from the holder of the copyright or patent. Another vendor could not economically perform the work at the same cost or in the same time with the same continuity due to the level of completion of the work done by this vendor.
