Subject: Consideration of a Change Order for Transformer Purchases
1. WHY THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE BOARD
Board approval is required for expenditures in excess of $15,000.
2. HISTORY
The District has historically awarded an annual purchase agreement for transformers.
The Board approved the transformer purchase agreements on December 5, 2012.
Single-phase pole mounted transformer contract was awarded to HD Supply Portland
with an annual contract value of $30,000. Single-phase pad mounted transformer
contract was awarded to HD Supply Portland with an annual contract value of
$30,000. The three phase pad mounted transformer to Howard Industries with an
annual contract value of $75,000.
3. NEW INFORMATION
Construction activities have increased dramatically in the past year resulting in a
customer demand for additional transformers and necessitating a subsequent
increase in the contract limits. There are no changes to the contract pricing.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds exist in the approved FY13 budget.
5. RECOMMENDATION
a) Authorize an increase to the annual contract amount for single-phase pole mounted
