Body
Dear Sir:
On September 14, 2017, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to award Contract 17-708-31, Installation of Disc Filters at the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant, to Independent Mechanical Industries, Inc., in an amount of $1,312,800.00. The contract will expire on February 14, 2019.
This contract has no prior change orders.
The increase is for labor and materials to the two disc filter control panels. The control panels were to be installed on the wall north of the disc filters and now will be relocated to prevent damaged to the control panels.
This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since the change is due to circumstances not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed, 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 Contract 17-708-31 in an amount of $13,629.00 (approximately 1.0% of the current contract value) from an amount of $1,312,800.00 to an amount not to exceed $1,326,429.00.
Funds are available in Account 401-50000-645650.
Requested, Brett Garelli, Acting Director of Maintenance and Operations, BAP:SO’C:MAG:JR:JMC:WB
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
