N <br />CASCADIA <br />CON S U LTI N G G ROU P <br />To: Megan Campbell, City of Pleasanton <br />From: P.J. Tillmann, Senior Associate, and Andrea Martin, Director <br />Date: October 8, 2021 <br />Subject: Amendment 01 for Pleasanton CAP 2.0 <br />EXHIBIT A► <br />OF ATTACHMENT 1 <br />Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, extended periods for review of materials, and additional Consultant analysis, <br />all Pleasanton CAP 2.0 project tasks will now conclude in March of 2022. To support the longer project <br />duration, Cascadia Consulting Group requests a time extension and budget amendment: <br />1. Extend project duration to March 31, 2022, from July 31, 2021. <br />2. Increase Task 1 budget by $10,621, to cover project management expenses associated with a longer <br />project duration. As shown in the table below, this request accounts for Cascadia's remaining budget <br />in Task 1 and closed tasks, as well as remaining contract contingency. <br />A. Estimated costs assume an average monthly cost of $1,160 for Cascadia and $47 for Rincon, and include a 20% <br />contingency to accommodate unanticipated project management needs. For Cascadia, these costs account for <br />the reduced frequency of project check -ins and lower average staff rate for those attending project check -ins. <br />The costs would support weekly to bi-weekly 1 -hour check -ins, invoicing, project team coordination, budget <br />management, and minimal (up to 30 minutes/month, on average) timeline management and additional <br />meeting scheduling. For reference, the average monthly cost in Task 1 (excluding the costs of project kick-off) <br />has been $1,200. For Rincon, these costs would support monthly invoicing conducted by an administrative <br />assistant. <br />B. Remaining Cascadia funds are calculated as of July 26, 2021. They include $502 in Task 1 and reallocation of the <br />remaining $132 from Tasks 4, 5, 6, and 8. <br />C. Remaining contingency includes all remaining funds in the $20,000 contract contingency. <br />D. The requested budget amendment accounts for remaining budget (B) and contract contingency (C). <br />E. The new task budget would be the sum of the original task budget ($28,855) and estimated Task 1 costs from <br />August 2021 through March 2022. <br />Thank you for considering Cascadia's amendment request. <br />Sincerely, <br />Cascadia Consulting Group Seattle, WA Oakland, CA www.cascadiaconsulting.com <br />
