Title

Odor and Corrosion Control Services - Amendment (Ordinance S-49242)

 

Description

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute amendment to Agreement 139903 with EWT Holdings III Corporation to provide additional time and funding to the agreement. Further request to authorize the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The additional expenditures included in this amendment will not exceed $5,800,000.

 

Report

Summary

The purpose of the amendment is to extend the term of the agreement for an additional two years to continue to provide chemicals, services, methodology, supplies and equipment necessary for an odor and corrosion control program for specific target locations as determined by the City. The additional time and funds will allow EWT Holdings III Corporation (EWT) to continue to provide the required goods and services necessary to prevent disruption in maintaining a proper odor and corrosion control program for the City of Phoenix Water Services Department.

 

Procurement has conducted a thorough evaluation of influential market prices and the supply/demand challenges facing the industries related to this agreement. Due to rising costs in the market for the goods and services provided through this agreement, Procurement has determined that an extension with EWT in lieu of a new solicitation will allow for minimal disruption in maintaining the required services at a fiscally responsible cost.

 

Agreement Term

The amendment will extend the end date of the agreement term from Dec. 30, 2022 to Dec. 30, 2024.

 

Financial Impact

The initial authorization for Odor and Corrosion Control Services was for an expenditure not-to-exceed $10,097,717.88. An amendment increased the authorization for the agreement by $6,500,000. This amendment will increase the authorization for the agreement by an additional $5,800,000, for a new total not-to-exceed agreement value of $22,397,717.88.

 

Funding is available in the Water Services Department's Operating budget.
