(P23-L32466.A1) – Approve an amending ordinance to Ordinance No. 2025-0208 (approved on March 19, 2025) to amend the maximum contract amount to $8,735,250.00 for Contract No. 4600018620 between the City of Houston and Denali Water Solutions, LLC for maintenance services of Forebays 1 and 2 at the East Water Purification Plant for Houston Public Works.
Specific Explanation:
The Director of Houston Public Works (HPW) and the Chief Procurement Officer recommend that City Council approve an amending ordinance to amend the maximum contract amount to $8,735,250.00 for maintenance services of Forebays 1 and 2 at the East Water Purification Plant (EWPP) between the City of Houston and Denali Water Solutions, LLC. This amendment is necessary to correct the maximum contract amount for services to be provided for HPW.
The contract was awarded on March 19, 2025, by Ordinance No. 2025-0208, for a three-year term, with two one-year options. At the time of City Council Approval, the Ordinance was inadvertently developed with the incorrect maximum contract amount of $873,525.00. The original RCA correctly reflected the intended maximum contract amount of $8,735,250.00. As HPW is projected to utilize the entire contract amount, the original ordinance must be amended to correct the clerical error and reflect the intended maximum contract amount of $8,735,250.00.
The scope of work requires the contractor to provide maintenance services for Forebays 1 & 2 at the EWPP to aid in the operation of the water purification plant. This project includes the removal and disposal of sediments that have accumulated at the EWPP since the last cleaning and removal of overgrown vegetation inside and around the perimeter of the forebays.
