BACKGROUND
The Control Center Building at Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) Plant No. 1 is a two-story office building housing mainly operations staff. The Day Training Room in this building is typically used by 17 Plant Operators during day shift and seven Plant Operators during night shift, including four Lead Operators. The room is also used for frequent meetings among operators.
OC San workspace standards call for four-foot-wide workstations for Plant Operators, eight-foot by eight-foot cubicles for Lead Plant Operators, and approximately 10-foot by 10-foot individual offices for Supervisors. Operator workstations are not dedicated to individual Operators, so the same workstations are used by more than one Operator over the course of a day. Individual offices are needed for supervisors to conduct sensitive and private discussions with staff.
OC San awarded a previous FR1-0007 Contract in May 2021 and the Contractor failed to perform in accordance with the contract and scope of work for the project. The contract work was not completed, which required a readvertise of the project under FR1-0007R. Only the Day Training Room demolition work was performed, resulting in the inability to use this space.
