Change Order: On-Call Quality and Assurance and Material Testing/Inspection Change Order #2 (CMT Engineering Laboratories)
end

AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order

RECOMMENDATION:
Approve change order #2 to the CMT Engineering Laboratories (CMT) Professional Services Contract in the amount of $80,000 and authorize the Executive Director to execute the change order and associated disbursements

BACKGROUND:
CMT provides quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC )and material testing services for a variety of UTA’s capital construction projects. In 2021, change order #01 to contract 19-3016TP added $45,000 to the original contract budget as well as a one-year extension, from 5/15/2021 to 5/15/2022. Change Order #2 will add an additional $80,000 to the contract putting it over the $200,000 threshold requiring board approval. This change order does not include a contract extension.

DISCUSSION:
The current contract needs an additional $80,000 so that the required QA/QC services may continue through April 2022. The contract expires on 5/15/2022. This change order is needed to facilitate QA/QC services while a new contract is being procured. Proposals for the new contract are due in February. Review and selection will take place thereafter. Once a consultant is selected, there will be time to negotiate and circulate the contract for Board approval.
Billing rates for this change order are equal to the current contract approved rates.
