<br />Page 5 of 5 <br />Mitigation/Cost Savings Potential Resolution: If the City is looking to reduce cost impacts from the <br />extended Contractor’s schedule, it would be most advisable to reduce CM costs during Phase 2 activities. <br />It would be difficult and detrimental to the project and close-out to reduce CM hours during Phase 1. This <br />would result in 8 months of additional CM budget as opposed to 12 months. <br /> <br />As the City is aware, from many discussions between City and CM team staff regarding the above <br />unplanned costs and project special issues, the construction management team requires additional budget <br />to complete the SR-55/Ritchey Street Water Improvement Project. This additional budget represents an <br />increase in our approved total contract amount and therefore it is expected to require City Council approval, <br />as well as submission of a funding request to OCTA. <br />We ask that the City consider Unplanned Costs, Project Issues, and the Contractor’s extended schedule <br />when reviewing this following request. Line items are negotiable, and our team is available for discussion <br />of each cost estimate. Berg & Associates, Inc. is committed to providing quality services to the City of Santa <br />Ana. You may contact Project Manager, Dave Smith, PE, QSD, at dave@bergcm.com, if you have any <br />questions. <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Alicia M.
