SUBJECT: APPROVE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR CLINICAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH
LABORATORY AT CONTRA COSTA REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER (6371-4538-
0927-WH538B) RESOLUTION NO. 99/428
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1. ADOPT Resolution approving J. W. & Sons as lowest responsive and responsible bidder for the
construction of the above mentioned project
2. APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator or his designee to execute a contract with
J. W. & Sons and execute all orders identified by the Resolution.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The initial contract award of $6,369,300 is within the funds available to finance construction and
related costs.
BACKGROUND:
In March 1996 the County's Director of General Services authorized Fong and Chan Architects to
begin a feasibility study for a new Clinical and Public Health Laboratory at the Contra Costa Regional
Medical Center. The County authorized schematic designs for this new laboratory in June 1996 and
by June of 1998 construction documents were sufficiently complete to begin the code and regulatory
reviews mandated by California State law for essential facilities.
This construction is subject to a review of environmental significance in conformance with Contra
Costa County Guidelines for implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). On June
22, 1999 the County approved the plans and specifications and adopted the Negative Declaration of
environmental impact.
Five bids were received on July 29, 1999 with the lowest responsible and responsive bidder being J.
W. & Sons of Petaluma, CA. Three bids were within 3% of the low bidder, indicating a fair price was
submitted for the work. The low bid exceeds the Architects estimate by 8%. However, redesigning or
re-bidding the project would
not substantially lower the project cost.
