Body
Dear Sir:
On February 2, 2017, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to issue a purchase order to AT&T Mobility National Accounts LLC., to furnish and deliver cellular telephones, accessories and wireless communications services in an amount not to exceed $684,400.00.
As of January 14, 2021, the attached list of change orders has been approved. The effect of these change orders resulted in an increase in an amount of $362,993.16 from the original amount awarded of $684,400.00. The current contract value is $1,047,393.16. The prior approved change orders reflect a 53% increase to the original contract value.
The change is necessary to continue to pay for cellular services and equipment through March 1, 2021 while a new contract is finalized.
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 purchase order in an amount of $56,927.99 (5.4% of the current contract value), from an amount of $1,047,393.16, to an amount not to exceed $1,104,321.15.
Funds are available in Account 101-27000-612210,623850.
