P23-WS1324519700.A1) – Amend Motion 2024-0866 (passed on November 14, 2024) to correct the purchase amount from $157,893.40 to $209,109.80 for the purchase of trailer-mounted sewer jet cleaners from Industrial Disposal Supply Co., LLC through the Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing Agreement for Houston Public Works.
Specific Explanation:
The Chief Procurement Officer recommends that City Council approve an amendment to Motion 2024-0866 to correct the purchasing amount from $157,893.40 to $209,109.80 for the purchase of two (2) trailer-mounted sewer jet cleaners from Industrial Disposal Supply Co., LLC through the Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing Agreement for Houston Public Works (HPW).
This purchase was approved on November 14, 2024, by Council Motion No. 2024-0866 for the purchase of two (2) trailer-mounted sewer jet cleaners. At the time of City Council approval on November 14, 2024, the motion was inadvertently developed with the incorrect purchasing amount of $157,893.40. The original RCA correctly reflected the intended purchasing amount of $209,109.80. In order to purchase this equipment for Houston Public Works the original motion must be amended to correct the clerical error and reflect the intended purchasing amount of $209,109.80.
This recommendation is made pursuant to subsection 271.102(c) of the Texas Local Government Code, which provides that “a local government that purchases goods or services from a cooperative purchasing program or organization satisfies any state law requiring the local government to seek competitive bids for the purchase of the goods or services.”
