RE: Change Order—Additional Construction Assistance
City of Ukiah's Electrical Service Building at 1350 Hastings Rd
Ms. Horger,
Please find our costs and justifications for providing additional construction assistance for the City of Ukiah's
Electrical Service Building.
Whitchurch Engineering provided a change order on September 91h, 2024, to provide continued construction
assistance which had exceeded the cost and assumptions in the original contract.The change order was limited to
5 new RFI's and 3 project meetings. These assumptions were based on the contractor's schedule at that time,
showing support for structural,mechanical,electrical and plumbing scopes was to complete by October 15th,2024.
After executing the change order,the contractor issued 32 new RFI's(RFI-050 through RFI-081),of which 22 RFI's
required a response from Whitchurch Engineering. Additionally,the contractor issued 8 of his own change orders
(COR-008 through CO11-015), and requested a design change for the steel fascia beam. Regular support for the
project was extended into December 2024,at which time our participation in regular meetings was not required.
In February 2025,an electrical incident occurred,for which Whitchurch reviewed design basis and component sizes
for.Two representatives attended a meeting with the owners and contractors to evaluate the situation,and provide
recommendations to remedy the situation.
The additional cost requested is$11,610.A full description of services and breakdown of hours is provided on th.e
attached page
Should you have any questions regarding the changes and additional fees,please don't hesitate to contact our office.
