Project Description:

This is a continuous lifecycle management project to identify and construct all required upgrades and improvements for County facilities that are currently maintained by Building Operations Services (BOS).

 

 

Project Scope:

The program for upgrading and replacing roofing systems is a countywide initiative within BOS’s Capital Improvement Plan for assets/equipment.

There might be changes in the County’s needs that result in minor operational changes for the project throughout the Fiscal Year, but the overall scope will remain the same, and any additional authorization would go through Commissioners Court approval.

 

Justification:

This project is part of an ongoing effort to upgrade and replace the backlog of deferred roofs in need of replacement. Replacing roofs that are failing will reduce the funds spent to maintain old roofs that are past their life cycle.  It will also prevent property damage, non-code compliance, and, most importantly, risks to life/ safety. The work that is part of this project will mitigate more costly future repairs and facility damage, as well as prevent a total roof failure that would shut a facility down. This project also includes roof retrofits, which will improve a building’s energy efficiency.

HCED continues to experience the effects of previous years’ inflation regarding materials and labor for construction projects.  Although inflation for costs of materials and labor is expected to increase at historical averages in FY2025, the increases from previous years are expected to remain.

 

Alternatives and Engagement:

Not funding this program would lead to an even greater backlog of deferred maintenance to perform later and, in some cases, could create hazards to life and safety. Delay in project timeline may increase costs due to increased deterioration of infrastructure, potential bid increases, and increase in material and labor costs.
