2016 Water-Energy Grant Attachment 4: Budget (2 of 2)
Water and Energy Efficiency Retrofits for the California State University
(Exhibit B1)
Budget Basis of Estimate
Information Regarding all Proposed Projects:
Personnel Services: The California State University does not expect to incur any costs due to personnel services.
Easements/Land Acquisition:All project sites are owned by the CSU, so no easements or land acquisition will be required for this project. Therefore, there are no expected costs in this category.
Permitting:The CSU acts as its own Building Official and coordinates its building official authority with both the State Fire Marshal and the Department of State Architect. As the permitting process is done under the CSU’s authority, there are no expected costs for any necessary permits for these projects.
Construction Administration: The CSU and campuses have staff that provide construction administration duties as part of their existing job scope. As these are all minor capital projects, they are not expected to incur additional construction administration costs beyond the normal salaried job functions, so no additional costs were assessed as part of these projects.
Indirect (F&A) Cost: The California State University, Office of the Chancellor’s
F&A rate is 25%. The rate is applied on Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC) which
excludes scholarship, participant support costs, rent, equipment over $5,000, and the amount
exceeding the first $25,000 of each subaward. Since all expenditures are for capitalized equipment over $5,000 there are no expected indirect costs.
Project: Faucet Retrofit at the CSU Office of the Chancellor
Budget is based on estimate provided by contractor when a plumbing fixture upgrade project including faucet replacement was previously considered for this facility. This project did not proceed due to a number of factors. This estimate was prepared according to all applicable CSU policies outlined in the State University Administration Manual[1] (SUAM).
The project estimate was $1,130.51 each for 21 restroom faucets, for a total of $23,740.71. The contractor did not provide a breakdown of expected cost between parts and labor. However, based on the specified Chicago IR sensor faucets, the cost per faucet is roughly $430 according to a comparison of prices from various online vendors. Therefore, CSU staff assumed the estimate of $1,130.51 should account for approximately $430 in equipment costs and $700 in labor per unit. Labor rates for project would be subject to all CSU policies and guidelines and any other applicable requirements as specified in the SUAM.
Project Budget: $23,740.71
Project: CSU East Bay Dining Commons Equipment Upgrade
The equipment costs for this project are based on approximate prices for available ENERGY STAR units that would be an appropriate replacement for existing equipment.The equipment estimate includes $12,000 for a commercial steam cooker and $20,000 each for 2 commercial combination ovens.
This project is not expected to incur any labor costs, as the replacement of the three pieces of equipment should be a relatively minor operation and fits within the scope of existing campus facilities staff job descriptions for routine equipment maintenance and replacement.
Project Budget: $52,000
Project: CSU Fullerton Campuswide Water & Energy Efficiency Upgrades
Faucets: Equipment price estimatefor 372 units is $111,600 ($300 per unit) based on 0.5 gpm automatic battery auto-eye faucet (Sloan EAF 150 ism-Optima i.a. or equivalent). Labor estimate of $176,700($475 per unit) provided by CSU Fullerton facilities staff, including labor from plumbers, carpenters, and painters as necessary. Estimates account for legacy counters and sink fixtures that may require more than a basic retrofit. This would cover in-house or JOC pricing, depending if the project is put to a bid or performed in-house with state trades labor.
Commercial dishwashers: Equipment price estimate for 187 units is $74,800 ($400 per unit) assumes a residential-type front-loading dishwasher (Whirlpool Front Control Dishwasher or similar CEE Tier 1 unit) which is approximately $400 including tax from standard retail outlets. Installation estimate of $600 includes 2 hours of labor at quoted $95 hourly rate (accommodates either in-house labor price for state trades or JOC rates if the work is put to bid) as well as costs for removal and disposal of old units and delivery of new units for a total labor estimate of $112,200. Estimate provided by campus facilities staff based on total installation costs for similar projects.
Project Budget: $475,300
Project: CSU Northridge Marketplace Dishwasher Upgrade
Project estimate based on subcontractor quote for $31,616.55, which includes:
- Equipment; $25,795
- Installation: $3,500
- Tax: $2,321.55
Unit cost is based on an ENERGY STAR rated replacement unit of similar dimensions and capacity to the existing unit.
Project Budget: $31,616.55
Project: CSU Sacramento Campuswide Water & Energy Efficiency Upgrades
Equipment estimates in the budget spreadsheet are based on actual costs of specified units for a total of $421,221.96 for various equipment. Labor rates quoted are based on outside contractor pricing for specified workat $85 an hour for a total of $180,455 (2,123 hours) based on standard rates for similar campus projects. See table 6.2 on the “CSU Sacramento” tab of the budget spreadsheet for details on equipment specifications and labor hours and rates. All estimates were provided by CSU Sacramento facilities staff.
Project Budget: $601,676.96
Project: Sonoma State University Campus Water and Energy Efficiency Upgrades
All equipment cost estimates are based on average prices of appropriate ENERGY STAR units from vendors. The equipment estimate includes $15,000 for 3 commercial clothes washers, $4,920 for 41 commercial faucets, and $60,000 for 5 commercial showers.
Labor rates represent hourly cost of installation work by Sonoma State facilities staff at $50 an hour for a total of $8,400 for all equipment installation (168 hours). All estimates were provided by Sonoma State staff.
Project Budget: $88,320
TOTAL Budget: $ 1,272,654.22
