Christine:
Responses to your questions regarding proposed Amendment No. 1 to the Levi’s Stadium On-Call Electrical Maintenance and Repair Contract between the Stadium Manager and Cupertino Electric are set forth below in red (your questions have also been reproduced for ease of reference:
QUESTION 1: It is mentioned on the ME Engineer letter that the firm made a recommendation based on information that was provided by a third-party testing agency, Apparatus Testing and Engineering (ATE). Was ATE’s work separate from the testing and inspection work that was described on pages 3 and 4 of the Recommendation memo, which states that Cupertino Electric previously performed the testing and inspection of the stadium switchgear?
RESPONSE 1: ATE is a subcontractor under Cupertino Electric and was tasked with performing the system testing and inspection described on pages 3 and 4 of the Recommendation memo based on ATE’s qualifications and experience in providing this type of testing and inspection service.
Cupertino Electric, as the prime, performed the complex support services associated with powering down the system and providing temporary power to critical facility systems in order to allow testing and inspection to occur.
QUESTION 2: Did the Stadium Manager share the project scopes with the other electrical vendor, Bear Electrical, for a second quote? RESPONSE 2: The Stadium Manager discussed the project scopes with Bear Electrical as part of the process of determining whether there was any other vendor well situated to perform the scopes of work. Bear Electrical indicated it did not possess the resources and experience internally to perform this type of complicated high voltage electrical work. Bear Electrical also communicated concerns regarding meeting the proposed project schedules, which are accelerated due to the urgent nature of the projects as previously explained in our Recommendation memo to the Authority.
Based on
the foregoing, Bear Electrical did not express interest in performing these two projects.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Thanks,
JIM
