title
REQUESTED ACTION: Approval and authorization for the Chair to sign Agreement 2026-02 with MCK Americas Inc. (MCK) with a not to exceed amount of $1,166,495.19 for construction management and inspection services during construction of the Devlin Road Transfer Station C&D Building, Project #17810.
body
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Napa County issued a “Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFQ)” in January 2025 for as-needed construction management services. After receiving Statements of Qualifications from interested firms, the County determined MCK was the most qualified firm and entered into agreement for as-needed construction management services with MCK on June 17, 2025. Rather than engaging in a duplicative evaluation process, the Authority is “piggybacking” on the County’s RFQ and proposes to hire MCK as the construction manager for the new C&D Building.
MCK’s proposal for construction management and inspection services for the new C&D Building is included with this item. MCK will charge the Authority the hourly rates included with their proposal. The estimated cost for construction management services is $1,166,495.19, though the final cost will likely be different depending on the level of effort necessary to complete the Project.
