Body
 
Dear Sir:
 
On January 17, 2013, the Director of Procurement and Materials Management issued a purchase order to Venture Technology Groups, Inc., to Furnish and Deliver Parts for EIM Valve Actuators and Controls to Various Service Areas, in an amount not to exceed $87,000.00. The purchase order expires on December 31, 2015.
 
This purchase order has no prior change orders.
 
An increase is being requested to include the Calumet Water Reclamation Plant on the subject purchase order.
 
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 $18,000.00 (20.7% of the current purchase order's value), from an amount of $87,000.00, to an amount not to exceed $105,000.00.
 
Funds for the current year are available in Account 101-68000-623270. Funds for the subsequent years, 2014 and 2015, are contingent on the Board of Commissioners' approval of the District's budget for those years.
 
Requested, Manju Prakash Sharma, Director of Maintenance & Operations, SES:SO'C:MAG:SAF:TRS
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
