Title

Authorization to amend Board Order of September 14, 2017, regarding Authority to advertise Contract 18-625-11, Diving Services at Various Locations, estimated cost $140,000.00, Account 101-66000-612490, Requisition 1468685, Agenda Item No. 7, File No. 17-0931

Body

 

Dear Sir:

 

At the Board Meeting of September 14, 2017, the Board of Commissioners duly authorized the above stated action, Agenda Item No. 7, File No. 17-0931.

 

The contract was advertised for bid on December 6, 2017, and did not yield acceptable bids. Upon further consideration, it was determined that the Affirmative Action Ordinance, Revised Appendix D should be removed from any subsequent readvertisement of the contract.

 

It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to delete the sixth paragraph in the body of the letter that begins with the words “The Affirmative Action Ordinance, Revised Appendix D will be included…” in its entirety, and that the letter be revised to state “The Affirmative Action Ordinance,  Revised Appendix D will not be included in this contract because of the specialized nature of the work involved.”

 

All other information provided in the transmittal is correct.

 

Therefore, it is requested that the aforesaid Board Order of September 14, 2017, be amended to effect the change set forth above, otherwise to remain in force and effect as heretofore enacted.

 

Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations, BAP:SO’C:MAG: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 March 15, 2018
