Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a planned contract modification with 360Water, Inc. for the purposes of providing additional professional services that are needed for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage and Division of Power and Water for Facilities and Safety Training.

This modification will authorize the preparation of computerized courseware associated with the operation and maintenance of wastewater treatment plant equipment that is being installed as a part of the Jackson Pike Sludge Handling and Dewatering Improvements Project and the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant New Headworks Project. The combined total investment in these improvements total $136,041,073.96. Each of these projects involve the installation of complex and critically important equipment to the operation of the City's wastewater treatment facilities. The courseware developed under authority of this contract is important to ensure that the City's investment into this equipment and facility infrastructure is protected.

Procurement Information: This procurement was conducted in accordance with the Request For Proposals (RFP) process set forth in Section 329.14, Columbus City Codes, 1959. The process was conducted as follows:
The RFP was published in the "City Bulletin" during July of 2006.
A proposal was received on July 31, 2006 from one FBE firm, 360Water, Inc

This first contract modification is part of the planned scope of services included in the contract. It is a logical extension of the original contract and expands the training and documentation to include training staff of the Division of Power and Water.
