Scope Of Work

Challenge

Cyrcon Builders was introduced to Gateway during a competitive bidding process for a stipulated sum contract. Gateway Hospital, a non-profit organization, assembled funding from private donations, foundations and grants which made the construction budget extremely tight and strictly enforced. Cyrcon Builders was the low bid at 2.7 Million and entered into a contract with Gateway contingent on reaching Gateway’s budget of $2.2 Million. A key part of the project was to achieve the required parking requirement by construction of a lot line to lot line subterranean basement. Cyrcon Builders worked with the architect and engineer to develop a variety of shoring strategies to meet the challenge. Prior to the project, Gateways Hospital had spent years developing better relations with the community, and consequently Cyrcon Builders was tasked with maintaining good neighbor relations in this very dense and diverse part of Los Angeles.

Results

Cost - By utilizing their team of project managers and engineers Cyrcon Builders was able to achieve the project goals by utilizing a variety of strategies including:

Value engineering

Specification adjustments

Schedule adjustments

Subcontractor buyout savings

Vendor negotiations

Schedule – The project was built during the rainy season, and in one of the wettest years ever. Adding to the frustration was a particularly dense clay like earth under the project the prevented any rain water from percolating into the soil. The project also suffered from funding hiccups that caused it to be shut down for 3 months. In spire of these delays totaling over 4 months, Cyrcon Builders delivered the project on time and was able to achieve Gateway’s opening date.

Quality – Cyrcon Builders was able to re-specify the exterior finishes, roof materials, interior finishes, support the team in redesigning the basement, driveway and planters; and deliver the project so that it exactly matched the architectural renderings, and exceeded all warrantee requirements. The project was testimony of good things that can happen with strong owner-contractor relationships.
