Summary & Background The Fulton County Library System requests approval to amend the contract awarded to Allied Logistics, Inc. to provide for Owner requested logistical changes requiring an additional month of off-site storage and additional handling of books and materials during the post renovation move back into Central Library.
Scope of Work: This change order is for the removal of all books and shelving from various floors of the Central Library and reassembly of the shelving on the 8th floor for storage during renovation. Post renovation, the initial move process called for transporting the books from the 8th floor to newly installed bookshelves on the 3rd and 4th floors making the move a simple one using book carts. However, a change in plan to store all books and materials on the parking level required that Allied Logistics box and palletize all books and materials creating a much more rigorous and time-consuming move. Subsequent changes required that the books be moved from the parking level to off-site storage to facilitate replacement of the under-slab storm drainage piping that began to show signs of deterioration.
In lieu of transporting the books from the 8th floor using book carts as the means of transporting and keeping the books in order, the changes in storage locations required over 8,000 boxes (250 pallets) to be moved back into the library from off-site storage to the 7th and 8th floors of the library one pallet at a time. Once all pallets were on the upper floors of the library, boxes had to be removed from pallets and books manually re-organized by floors and shelving sections prior to re-shelving.
The original scope of work did not account for the additional time and costs associated with the modified re-entry process.
Community Impact: This request involves the renovation of Central Library. The successful renovation of this library impacts communities throughout the County.
Department Recommendation: The Fulton County Library System recommends approval.
Project Implications: This requested contract change order will be funded using Library Bond Funds. Therefore, it will not impact the County or Library operations.
Community Issues/Concerns: None that the Department is aware of.
Department Issues/Concerns: None that the Department is aware of.
