Establish a blanket order contract with Vantage Company for the period of July 1, 2018 to <br />June 30, 2019 for various construction projects for the Facilities Maintenance Department <br />in an amount not to exceed $25,000, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the <br />City Manager and City Attorney. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The construction of the Santa Ana Police Department Administrative Building and Holding Facility <br />was completed in 1997. The Administrative building has two large indoor atrium corridors that <br />are four stories high. Along the perimeter of each atrium are heavy commercial wood grain <br />laminate panels. Due to the age of the building, much of the adhesive securing the panels has <br />deteriorated. In February 2018, a panel became loose and fell to the bottom floor from the <br />second floor. An inspection of the panels revealed that other panels may not be secure. Staff <br />recommends that each panel be reinforced to avoid any safety issues that may arise from <br />seismic activity or other building age related issues. Staff determined that a contractor with <br />specialized equipment is necessary to carry out the repairs and to secure the panels at the <br />required heights. <br />Four vendors inspected repair needs of the atriums: All American, Quality Woodworks, Bizal- <br />Hoff, and Vantage Company. The scope of the project includes securing 420 "C" shaped panels <br />and 336 "L" shaped panels, utilizing a scissor lift to reach the higher panels. The fasteners will <br />then be concealed with laminate caps or conceal plugs of the same laminate color.
