Core Systems Contractor’s RFCC 00014 Delay Costs for Design Build January 17, 2019
Basis of the Contractor’s Claim As a result of delays to the Interim Opening from East Kapolei to Aloha Stadium (Segment 1), Core Systems Contractor AHJV (the “Contractor”) made its original Request for Contract Change (RFCC) to the Design-Build (DB) portion of its Contract. The Contractor subsequently amended the RFCC to include the delays to the DB work to the projected Full Opening (East Kapolei to Ala Moana). Interim Opening is presently scheduled for December 2020, which is 1560 (4.3 years) days after the originally scheduled date. Full Opening is presently scheduled for January 2025, which is 2119 days (5.8 years) after the originally scheduled date. 2
Basis of the Contractor’s Claim (cont.) The delays caused the Contractor to perform many tasks much later than originally scheduled, escalating their costs to perform those DB tasks. The delays prolonged many of the Contractor’s Project -Wide and General Requirements scope of work for the DB phase, which increased the Contractor’s costs. In addition to full opening (East Kapolei to Ala Moana) the scope of work includes additional work necessary for a second Interim Opening (East Kapolei to Middle Street). 3
