Mr. Brian A. Perkovich, Executive Director

 

Title

 

Authority to increase agreement with Flow-Technics, Inc., to Furnish and Deliver Xylem Flygt A-C, Sulzer ABS, ITT Gould and Netzsch pumps and replacement parts to various locations in an amount of $110,000.00, from an amount of $425,000.00, to an amount not to exceed $535,000.00, Accounts 101-66000, 67000, 68000, 69000-623070, 623090, 623110, 623270 and 623990, Agreement 7002116

Body

 

Dear Sir:

 

On December 7, 2023, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to issue purchase orders to Flow-Technics, Inc., to furnish and deliver Xylem Flygt A-C, Sulzer ABS, ITT Gould and Netzsch pumps and replacement parts, on an as needed basis, for a one-year period, in an amount not to exceed $425,000.00. The agreement expires on December 31, 2024.

 

There have been no prior change orders.

 

Original Contract Amount                     $425,000.00

Date of Board Approval                     12/7/2023

Cumulative Change Order (10/1/2024)                     $0.00

% Change of Original Contract Value                     0.0%

Current Contract Value                     $425,000.00

Requested Increase or Decrease                     $110,000.00

New Contract Value                     $535,000.00

% Change of Current Contract Value                     25.9%

% Change of Original Contract Value                     25.9%

 

An increase to the agreement is necessary due to a greater than anticipated need for spare and replacement Netzsch and ITT pump parts and equipment at the Calumet and Stickney Water Reclamation Plants. 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 agreement 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 agreement in an amount of $110,000.00 (approximately 25.9% of the current agreement value), from an amount of $425.000.00, to an amount not to exceed $535,000.00.

 

Funds are available in Accounts 101-68000, 69000-623070, 623090, 623110, 623270 and 623990.

 

Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations, EJS:JS:SH:JR:JMC

Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management

Respectfully Submitted, Marcelino Garcia, Chairman Committee on Procurement
