On May 12, 2009, Turner Construction Company / Miles-McClellan was recommended by the Architectural Selection Committee to provide Construction Management at Risk Services for the Southwest High School project. Staff received approval from the board on May 12, 2009 to negotiate contract terms with Turner Construction Company / Miles-McClellan. Staff has successfully completed negotiations for pre-construction services, and board approval is now requested for Turner Construction Company / Miles-McClellan to provide these services for the Southwest High School project in exchange for the lump sum payment of $151,882.00. 

The MWBE participation for pre-construction services is as follows:

            MBE   $37,970.50............ Percent – 25.00
            WBE   $0............................ Percent –   0.00
            Total   $37,970.50............ Percent – 25.00

The cumulative MWBE participation with the 2008 Bond:

• If minority participation is calculated based on the amount of construction / architectural contracts awarded to date for the referendum, the minority participation = 17.06%.
