AGENDA ITEM 9-E ACTION ITEM TO: CHAIRMAN MILDE AND THE VRE OPERATIONS BOARD FROM: DALE ZEHNER DATE: AUGUST 20, 2010 RE: AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE OPTION YEAR CUSTODIAL AND FACILITY MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR RECOMMENDATION: The VRE Operations Board is being asked to authorize the Chief Executive Officer to execute the second year of the custodial and facility maintenance services contracts with NV Enterprises of Reston, Virginia in an amount not to exceed $2,600,000. BACKGROUND: On September 18, 2009, the Operations Board approved a facilities maintenance contract with NV Enterprises. The solicitation was designed to allow for a fiveyear contract for each service (custodial and facility maintenance) and included a base year, plus four one-year renewable options. Last year, the contract was awarded in the amount of $2,600,000, comprised of $1,800,000 for custodial maintenance and $800,000 for facilities maintenance. The authorization being requested for this first option year is recommended at the same level as last year. The facilities budget is financed using both operating and capital funds. The FY 2011 facilities maintenance budget includes $1,950,000 for general facilities maintenance (i.e., cleaning, landscaping, pressure washing, HVAC and elevator maintenance, and snow removal). The remaining $650,000 of contract authorization is funded through specific capital projects managed through task orders. Examples of such previous work include HVAC replacement, station canopy roof replacement, parking lot maintenance, station painting, and lighting replacement projects. Upcoming task order work includes station painting, concrete and stair repairs, and lighting improvement projects. FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for this contract is via the facilities line item of the FY 2011 VRE operating budget and project specific grants in the VRE capital budget. 2 TO: FROM: DATE: RE: CHAIRMAN MILDE AND THE VRE OPERATIONS BOARD DALE ZEHNER AUGUST 20, 2010 AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE OPTION YEAR CUSTODIAL AND FACILITY MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR RESOLUTION 9E-08-2010 OF THE VIRGINIA RAILWAY EXPRESS OPERATIONS BOARD WHEREAS, VRE facilities require custodial services and maintenance; and, WHEREAS, the existing facilities maintenance contract year term expires October 31, 2010, and, WHEREAS, these services are essential for a continued state of good repair for VRE facilities; and, WHEREAS, a procurement was completed in 2009 for custodial and facilities maintenance services over a period of five-years, including a base year, plus four one-year renewable options.
