The General Government Committee:

1. In accordance with Section 71-11.1C of the City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71 (Financial Control By-law), authorized the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management to amend the Purchase Order Number 6046514 with Aecom Canada Ltd for Consulting Services for the New Fleet Services Maintenance Garage, Salt Barn and Brine Facility located at 1050 Ellesmere Road, in the amount of $489,000 net of all taxes ($497,606 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) increasing the current Purchase Order value from $1,522,610 net of all taxes ($1,549,408 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) to $2,011,610 net of all taxes ($2,047,014 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries).

The purpose of this report is to seek authority to amend the value of Purchase Order Number 6046514 issued to Aecom Canada Ltd (“Aecom”) for Consulting Services for the New Fleet Services Maintenance Garage, Salt Barn and Brine Facility located at 1050 Ellesmere Road, scheduled for final completion in the second quarter of 2025. The total amendment being requested is $489,000 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($497,606 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries), increasing the current Purchase Order value from $1,522,610 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($1,549,408 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) to $2,011,610 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($2,047,014 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries).

Construction for the new Fleet Services Maintenance Garage commenced in June 2021 with Century Group Inc. serving as the general contractor, and Aecom serving as the technical consultant and contract administrator. Scope changes, updated environmental regulations during construction, as well as COVID-19 impacts led to schedule delays. These delays resulted in additional requirements for Aecom, including extended project management and oversight, additional contract administration and design services, as well as increased coordination for changes. This amendment is to address those the additional requirements for Aecom due to the schedule delays.
