Requesting Institution Remarks. This Construction Manager at Risk contract was initially awarded for pre-construction services early in the design phase. As design has progressed and funds become available, the contractor sequentially and competitively bids construction packages. This is the second bid package. One additional construction package is anticipated. Initially the University was planning on submitting two bid packages. However, part of the funding to cover capital equipment to be installed by the contractor will not be available until June 2021. Since those funds are not preauthorized, the University will have to return to the Board next year to obtain approval for a third bid package consisting mainly of capital equipment. Although there is no MBE compliance to report to date, the MBE goal is expected to be met through this and the subsequent bid package for this project. The Board of Public Works approved certain budget reductions on May 20, 2020 (Secretary’s Agenda, Item 16-GM) resulting in a $31 million reduction in MCCBL 2020 funds (Item #20- 601). UMES and USM will provide any bridge funding that may be required to cover cash flow requirements in FY 2021 through the use of Plant Funds limited to $17,000,000. UMES will seek restoration of the $31 million in FY 2022 (MCCBL 2021), and the restored funds will reimburse the bridge funds used in FY 2021.
