Body
Dear Sir:
On April 5, 2007, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to issue a purchase order (PO) for Contract 07-101-11 for Furnishing Contract Laboratory Technicians to Various Locations to ANA Laboratories, in an amount not to exceed $448,380.00. The contract expires on March 31, 2010.
As of December 17, 2009, the attached list of change orders has been approved. The effect of these change orders resulted in an increase in an amount of $48,000.00 from the original amount awarded of $448,377.62. The current contract value is $496,377.62. The prior approved change orders reflect a 10.7 percent increase to the original contract value.
This increase is needed to cover year 2010 expenditures until the award of the new Contract 10-101-11.
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 the PO for Contract 07-101-11 in an amount of $14,000.00 (2.8 percent of the current contract value) from an amount of $496,377.62 to an amount not to exceed $510,377.62.
Funds are available in Account 101-16000-612490.
