RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to Execute a purchase change order, on behalf of the Public Works Director, with ADI increasing the payment limit by $150,000 to a new payment limit of $400,000 for low voltage building parts and systems, with no change in original term of September 1, 2010 through August 31, 2012.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$150,000 increase in existing purchase order amount. 100% General Fund; Budgeted.
BACKGROUND:
In July 2010 General Services Department conducted a BidSync bid soliciting a vendor for low voltage building parts and systems. These parts are typically items used in burglar and fire alarm, video surveillance, and access control. Posted as BidSync bid # 1007-005, ADI was awarded a purchase order to supply Facilities Maintenance with these items. The original request was for two (2) years with three (3) possible one year extensions. Because of the importance of improving these systems, several departments and outside agencies such as East Bay Parks District are upgrading and installing systems faster than anticipated, causing a need for this change order. The original Board Order was item C.118 on the March 15, 2011 agenda.
