DISCUSSION
City Council approval is requested to enter into a contract with Bitech Construction Company, Inc., for concrete repairs and related improvements. Work performed under this contract includes the repair and replacement of sidewalks, driveways, curbs and gutters, curb ramps, concrete cross gutters, bus stops, alleys and related improvements.
This is an on-call contract where work is only done by the contractor based on individual work orders issued by the City and does not include any guaranteed minimum payment or retainer fee. Payment to the contractor under this contract will be based on the number of the work orders issued by the City and fully completed by the contractor. The maximum amount of work orders that can be issued under this on-call contract is $30,000,000 annually. This amount is estimated based on current and anticipated projects within various City departments, primarily the Public Works Department. Passage of the City’s Measure A and Los Angeles County’s Measure M has made additional funding available for concrete repairs. This contract will enable the City to utilize all funds available. While the Public Works Department will be responsible for the administrative control and monitoring of the contract, it may be used by other departments on a variety of concrete repair and related improvement projects.
