Summary: To support the Measure J General Obligation Bond projects, and due to the vacancies and unsuccessful recruitment to fill those positions, outside professional support is necessary to support the planned extensive projects. Staff is seeking approval to contract with Sixth Dimension PMCM, Inc. for Construction Management Services, a Construction Management Services Firm. The initial contract is to support the Elementary School Site Modernization Program. Entering a construction management services contract is driven by the need for professional expertise in overseeing complex construction projects. These contracts facilitate a collaborative partnership between the client and the construction manager, ensuring meticulous planning, efficient coordination of resources, and strategic decision-making throughout the project lifecycle. By engaging in such agreements, clients aim to benefit from the construction manager's experience, industry knowledge, and proactive approach in managing potential challenges, thereby enhancing the likelihood of project success. This contractual arrangement provides a structured framework for communication, risk mitigation, and adherence to timelines and budget constraints, fostering a transparent and accountable relationship between all project stakeholders. Government Code 53060 allows the legislative body of any public or municipal corporation or district to contract with and employ any persons for the furnishing to the corporation or district special services and advice in financial, economic, accounting, engineering, legal, or administrative matters if such persons are specially trained and experienced and competent to perform the special services required.
