Background• Purpose:

– Change in scope of the original PTC contract (11046 OS) removing the peer to peer radio communications network and adding the engineering, procurement, installation, test and commission of the network utilizing the fiber optic infrastructure previously installed.

• Background: – The PTC contract originally awarded to Herzog did not

Recommendation• Staff recommends that the Board authorize the

Executive Director to issue a contract change order to Herzog Technologies, Inc. to deduct scope to remove the peer to peer radio communications network in the amount of $1,815,583.00 and to add scope in the amount not-to-exceed $2,905,150.03 for the communications network utilizing the fiber optic infrastructure, with the net difference being $1,089,567.
