COMMITTEE ON PROCUREMENT

 

Mr. Richard Lanyon, Executive Director

 

Title

Authority to increase Contract 09-980-11 Rehabilitation of Wastewater Treatment Tanks at the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant, to Independent Mechanical Industries, Inc., in an amount of $81,958.81, from an amount of $2,324,822.00, to an amount not to exceed $2,406,780.81, Account 101-69000-612650, Purchase Order 5001035

Body

 

Dear Sir:

 

On May 21, 2009, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to award Contract 09-980-11 Rehabilitation of Wastewater Treatment Tanks at the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant, to Independent Mechanical Industries, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $2,324,822.00. The contract expires on December 31, 2010.

 

This contract has no prior change orders.

 

An increase in contract value is being requested at this time to rehabilitate West Side Skimming Tank No. 13. Although this tank was originally scheduled to be rehabilitated in 2011, immediate rehabilitation is needed to maintain maximum skimming capacity during Engineering Contract 08-171-3P, which will require 8 of the 16 skimming tanks to be taken out of service.

 

This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since the change is germane to the contract.

 

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 09-980-11 in an amount of $81,958.81 (3.5% of the current contract value) from an amount of $2,324,822.00 to an amount not to exceed $2,406,780.81.

 

Funds are available in Account 101-69000-612650.

 

Requested, Manju Prakash Sharma, Acting Director of Maintenance and Operations, MPS:SO'C:MAG:LSC:JK

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 July 8, 2010
