LOG NAME: 13P AMEND NO. #1 ILA CITY OF DENTON LEAK DETECTION AO WTR
SUBJECT
(ALL) Authorize Amendment to City Secretary Contract No. 60170 with Pure Technologies US, Inc. dba Wachs Water Services for Acoustic Leak
and Correlation Survey Services to Increase the Annual Amount by $350,000.00 for a New Annual Amount Up to $450,000.00 for the Water
Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of an Amendment to City Secretary Contract No. 60170 with Pure Technologies
US, Inc. dba Wachs Water Services for acoustic leak and correlation survey services to increase the annual amount by $350,000.00 for a new
annual amount up to $450,000.00 for the Water Department.
DISCUSSION:
On June 5, 2023, the Water Department contacted the Purchasing Division to issue an Interlocal Cooperative Purchasing Agreement (ILA) with the
City of Denton to finalize an annual agreement for acoustic leak and correlation survey services within the City. The agreement was authorized with
Pure Technologies US, Inc. dba Wachs Water Services for the Water Department for an annual amount up to $100,000.00.
In October 2023, the Water Department approached the Purchasing Division to increase the annual amount by $350,000.00 due to increased
maintenance requirements vital to the operation of various water treatment plants. Staff is requesting authorization to amend the existing
agreement to increase the annual amount by an additional $350,000.00, for a new total annual amount up to $450,000.00.
The maximum amount allowed under this agreement citywide will be $450,000.00; however, the actual amount used will be based on the needs of
the department and available budget.
Funding is budgeted in the Water Field Operations Department within the Water & Sewer Fund, as appropriated.
This amendment will not change any other terms or conditions.
State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under an Interlocal Purchasing Agreement satisfies state laws requiring that the
local government seek competitive bids for the purchase of the item. In January 2023, The City of Denton processed a bid (RFB No. 8181) and
received one (1) response. An evaluation team scored the proposal and awarded the agreement to Pure Technologies US, Inc. dba Wachs Water
Services. The contract has a term through June 6, 2026.
An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City
Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
A M/WBE goal is not assigned when purchasing from an approved purchasing cooperative or public entity.
Upon Council approval, the agreement will begin upon execution and expire on June 6, 2024.
The agreement may be renewed at the City's option for two (2) additional one-year renewal terms, in line with the City of Denton contract terms.
Renewal of this agreement by the City does not require specific City Council approval, provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient
funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term.
This project will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the recommendation, funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously
appropriated, in the Water & Sewer Fund. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Water Department has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds.
