MOTION

Upon recommendation of Navid Mehram, Chief Operating Officer - Wastewater Operating Services, the Board of Directors (Board) of the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA), authorizes the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to enter into Contract No. 2100575, Proposed Change Order No. 1, “CSO Facility Emergency Generator Improvements” with Rotor Electric Co., with no increase in cost, for a total cost not to exceed $1,029,000.00 and an increased duration of 180 days for a total contract duration of 540 days; and authorizes the CEO to take such other action as may be necessary to accomplish the intent of this vote. 

BACKGROUND

On February 23, 2022, GLWA Board of Directors Authorized the rehabilitation of the Emergency Generators for the nine (9) Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) facilities GLWA operates.

GLWA contractor Rotor Electric Co. has been coordinating with all the various suppliers to confirm delivery dates for equipment since the beginning of the project. However, due to the ongoing Global chip shortage, a significant lead time for some of the materials and equipment for this project are experiencing lead times that are longer than originally anticipated during bid time for this project. Currently, an extension to the contract end date is needed to allow for sufficient time to receive the materials and perform installation & startup is necessary. 

JUSTIFICATION

The chip shortage has resulted in an extended delivery time of the critical components for this project and thus the time of the project requires extension for proper completion of this project and all work.

There are no changes in cost associated with this change order.
