Body
Dear Sir:
On November 19, 2020, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to award Contract 20-671-11, Services to Perform a Certified Rebuild of One Wheel Loader, to Altorfer Industries, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $428,724.36.
This contract has no prior change orders.
The increase is needed to remediate corrosion and wear issues with the loader’s bucket and frame apparatus which were identified after the teardown and during the rehabilitation.
This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since the change is germane to the contract as signed.
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 20-671-11 in an amount of $67,596.23 (approximately 15.8% of the current contract value), from an amount of $428,724.36, to an amount not to exceed $496,320.59.
Funds are available in Account 101-69000-612760.
