Title
Authorization to amend Board Order of August 8, 2013, regarding Issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with SEECO Consultants, Inc., for professional engineering services on Contract 12-800-3C Geotechnical Analysis and Sub-Surface Investigation for Construction Projects, in an amount not to exceed $810,000.00, Accounts 101-50000-612380, 201-50000-612380, 401-50000-612380, and 501-50000-612380, Requisition 1350461, Agenda Item No. 35, File No. 13-0846
Body
Dear Sir:
At the Board meeting of August 8, 2013, the Board of Commissioners duly ordered the above stated action, Agenda Item No. 35, File No. 13-0846.
In an effort to simplify the account code structure, Commitment Item (CI) 612380 (Soil and Rock Mechanics Investigation) was discontinued for the 2017 budget year. The remaining balance of this contract should be reallocated to CI 612240 (Testing and Inspection Services), a less specialized account code. The Board order should be revised to include Accounts 401-50000-612240 and 501-50000-612240. Funds 401 and 501 are the only accounts with a remaining balance under this contract, and the contract has been extended through the end of 2017. The process of acquiring services under a new contract will begin mid-year.
All other information provided in the transmittal letter is correct.
Therefore, it is requested that the aforesaid Board order of August 8, 2013 be amended to effect the changes set forth above, otherwise to remain in force and effect as heretofore enacted.
Requested, Catherine A. O’Connor, Director of Engineering, CW
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee in Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for April 6, 2017
