Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify a contract for the Maintenance Manager Service Agreement for the Foxboro I/A System in accordance with Section 329.07 of the Columbus City Code. The Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant utilizes this control system to monitor and provide control functions to the critical digester control area of the treatment plant.

This is critical to the operations of the Jackson Pike facility, as all sludge brought into the plant is processed through the digester system. Invensys Systems, Inc. is the manufacturer of the system in use and is the only entity offering the necessary equipment, service and software for this type of equipment. Therefore, the Division desires to modify the contract for this service with Invensys Systems, Inc., the sole source and equipment manufacturer.

SUPPLIER: Invensys Systems, Inc. (04-1339430)

FISCAL IMPACT: The amount needed and budgeted for this modification is $43,252.00

$42,720.00 was spent in 2002

Emergency legislation is being requested so that there is not an interruption with the monitoring and service of the Foxboro I/A System at the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant.
