title
Extension of Contract for Small Diameter Jack and Bore and Directional Boring Services (NB)
explanation
On March 26, 2001, the City Commission authorized staff to enter into a three year contract for small diameter jack and bore and directional boring services with D & D, Inc. These services are used by Energy Delivery, Gas Distribution and Water Distribution for the installation of infrastructure. The Contract provides for two (2) one-year extensions which the City Commission approved the first extension on July 26, 2004 extending the term through April 4, 2005.
D & D has agreed to maintain the current pricing for an additional one year period. Based on the Contractor's performance and the current pricing, staff believes it would be in GRU's best interest to extend the contract for the second available extension.
recommendation
The City Commission: 1) authorize the General Manger or designee to execute Amendment No. Three to the Contract for small diameter jack and bore and directional boring services with D & D, Inc., extending the term through April 4, 2006; and 2) approve issuance of a purchase order(s) to D & D, Inc. in amounts not exceeding budgeted amounts for the remainder of FY 2005 and FY 2006, subject to the appropriation of funds for FY 2006.
