Title
Authority to increase purchase order to Suez Treatment Solutions, Inc., to Furnish and Deliver Parts for Coarse Screens at Various Locations, in an amount of $92,500.00, from an amount of $101,100.00, to an amount not to exceed $193,600.00, Accounts 101-66000, 67000, 68000, 69000-623270, Purchase Order 7001225
Body
Dear Sir:
On July 7, 2016, the Director of Procurement and Materials Management issued a purchase order to Suez Treatment Solutions, Inc., to furnish and deliver parts for coarse screens at various locations, in an amount of $101,100.00. The purchase order expires January 31, 2019.
The purchase order has no prior change orders.
This increase is necessary due to a greater than anticipated need for repair parts for the coarse screens throughout the District, which was not anticipated at the time the original purchase order was issued.
This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since these changes are due to circumstances not reasonably foreseeable at the time the purchase order was issued, and is in the best interest of the District.
It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to execute a change order to increase the purchase order in an amount of $92,500.00 (approximately 91.5% of the current purchase order’s value), from an amount of $101,100.00, to an amount not to exceed $193,600.00.
Funds are available in Accounts 101-66000, 67000, 68000, 69000-623270.
Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations, BAP:SO’C:MAG:JR:SSG
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for June 15, 2017
