Rationale: The Emergency Declaration “Garage Deck Upgrade” was issued by the Superintendent on March 1, 2023. This was to remove delaminating concrete, make the space safe, fully expose the underside of the deck for engineering design and install temporary shoring.

This is to award a capital purchase order to Structural Contracting Services, Inc., for the above work at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Academy for $49,500.00 and for a term of 180 calendar days.

On February 8, 2023 the two bids received for IFB6898 CIP 10875 “Storage Area Renovations” at Martin Luther King, Jr. Academy were opened. The apparent low bidder’s numbers were beyond the available funding and therefore could not be awarded. This project will need to be re-packaged, value engineered and let out for bid at a future date.

In the interim it is important that select work in that project be completed in a timely manner to further evaluate the reinforced concrete garage deck slab. This will include but not be limited to Part 1 - removing delaminated and spalled concrete, and Part 2- installation of temporary shoring, sampling & testing and engineering analysis & recommendations, which will be issued soon.
