RE: Communication Seeking Approval To Award Roofing Subcontract
Request
I am requesting that the Finance Committee approve the following Recommendation To
Award (“RTA”) for a not to exceed figure of $223,100 to Academy Roofing Corp for the
DPW Administrative Office Building.
Background
Please find the attached paperwork from Harvey Construction seeking approval to award
a roofing contract to Academy Roofing Corp. early in an effort to maintain the project’s
schedule.
It is anticipated that an AIA 133-2009 Construction Manager Services contract is going to
be approved by the City of Nashua for the construction of an administrative office building
for the Department of Public Works.
Harvey Construction requested that they be able to award a roofing contract early to ensure
the material is on site on time. There is a long lead time (9+ months), which if not ordered
now could cause the whole construction schedule off. There is no harm in issuing this
contract early, because the roofing material would be re-programmed to another project
should this specific project not proceed, but an award of contract is necessary to place an
order.
The Joint Committee on Infrastructure & Board of Public Works approved this request.
THANK YOU.
