1.2  Reasons additional goods/services could not be foreseen: 

This modification was planned at contract origination.

1.3  Reasons other procurement processes are not used: 

Due to the highly complex and technical nature of this wastewater treatment plant infrastructure project, it is not reasonable or cost efficient to undertake a new procurement effort to acquire these services. The lengthy process for initiating a new procurement, and for a new entity to gain understanding of the project, would likely cause an unacceptable project delay and additional cost.

 

1.4  How cost of modification was determined:

The cost of the renewal was determined by cost analysis of prior DOSD roof replacement projects.

2.   Project Timeline:  This will be a one year contract, with an option for the City to renew annually for an additional 4 years. The duration of the contract may extend into subsequent years based on the complexity and progress of the assigned work. The anticipated that this contact will conclude 12/31/2023.

4.  Economic / Environment Impact:   The performance of this project’s work activities to address replacement and repair of DPU roofs and roofing components will prevent moisture damage to process equipment, electrical components and other interior furnishings and equipment. Replacement costs of items due to failed roofing systems could have a major impact to the budget. No community outreach or environmental factors are considered for this project.

 

5.   Fiscal Impact: This legislation authorizes the expenditure of up to $375,000.00 from the Sanitary Sewer General Obligation Bond Fund 6109.
