BACKGROUND:

The DLR Group is the approved Design Criteria Professionals for the Design/Build of the Escambia County Correctional Facility. Their contract consists of seven phases with multiple tasks for each phase. Invoices are submitted and paid based on a percent of completion for each phase based on the completed tasks. Escambia County has received an invoice from the DLR Group. Both Florida Statutes and the existing contract require the County to make payment within 45 days of receipt for any invoice that is correct and in keeping with the terms of the contract. County staff has review the current invoicing and is providing the attached analysis. The DLR Group has invoiced for the following:

Phase V, Task 8 - Multi-Discipline Technical Reviews for Compliance - The DLR Group's technical analysis and summarizing Powerpoint Presentation has been presented to the Board.
Phase V, Task 9 - Prepare Requests for Technical Clarification - The DLR group responded on behalf of the County to 98 questions posed by both design/build firms and composed a total of 76 questions to both firms proposing on the facility.
Phase V, Task 10 - Detailed Review/Verification of Cost Proposal - (Included in the technical analysis)
Phase V, Task 11 - RFP Proposal Review w/County Workshop - The DLR Group met with each available commissioner as well as administration to review both proposals. Dates for each meeting are provided in the backup.
Phase V, Task 12 and Task 13 - Participate in Proposal Presentation Interviews/Assist in Interview Evaluation - Final review were conducted with the Board on August 8, 2017.
Phase V, Task 14 - Assist County in Award/Issuance of NTP - The final contract was approved by the Board on December 14, 2017.
Phase V, Task 15 - Document the Selection Process - The selection process was documented in the request for proposals document and is included as backup.
Expenses Associated with Phase V

Additionally, Phases VI and VII are on-going projects that includes tasks that will last the duration of the project and includes the hiring and installation of an on-site representative to serve as an owner's representative on the project. The DLR Group has retained Bay Design as a partner to perform tasks included in phase VI and VII. Since these tasks will last the duration of the project, an approved draw schedule is necessary for payment on these remaining tasks. A similar draw schedule was included in the initial contract; however changes are necessary due to the new timeline of the project.
