Body
Dear Sir:
On April 7, 2011, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to issue a purchase order for Contract 10-619-12 Analytical Services for In-Service and Procured Lubricants at Various Locations, to Trico Corporation, in an amount not to exceed $134,800.00. The Contract expires on May 5, 2014.
The Contract has no prior change orders.
A decrease in contract value is being requested because the utilization of the contract in 2011 was less than originally anticipated.
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 decrease Contract 10-619-12 in an amount of $10,374.21 (7.7% of the current contract value) from an amount of $134,800.00 to an amount not to exceed $124,425.79.
Funds will be restored in Account 101-68000-612240.
Requested, Manju Prakash Sharma, Director of Maintenance and Operations, SS: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 February 2, 2012
