Evergreen Elementary construction reported ahead of schedule; GMP 3 to be presented next meeting
Summary
Project presenters told the board footings have been poured in most areas, prefabrication has begun, and the team will present GMP 3 (the guaranteed maximum price covering the full project budget) at the next meeting. Occupancy planning targets late July.
A project presenter updating the board on Evergreen Elementary said site work is progressing strongly: "The project is moving along extraordinarily well," the presenter said, describing 100% design deliverables, poured footings, and scheduled prefabrication of walls.
The presenter said the team has executed three contract amendments to date — a validation-phase amendment and two guaranteed-maximum-price (GMP) increments — and that GMP 3, which will encompass the full project budget under progressive design-build, will be brought to the board at the next meeting. He estimated the school will accommodate about 600 students and described the building as a multi-story facility with a pitched roof and a courtyard-style front entrance.
Board members pressed on schedule risk and commissioning; the presenter and Dr. Wenzel said substantial commissioning will be completed before occupancy with follow-up commissioning during the early occupancy period. The presenter said the team is monitoring long-lead procurement items closely and has started early buyouts for mechanical and framing components.
The board will see GMP 3 for formal consideration at the subsequent meeting as the project moves from design deliverables toward construction pricing and final contract amounts.
