7. 0. .TAIL - DETENTIONELECTRONICS - SIEMENS BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES, <br /> INC. - CHANGE ORDER #2 <br /> The Board reviewed a Memorandum of September 10 , 2001 : <br /> Date : September 10, 2001 <br /> To : The Honorable Board of County Commissioners <br /> Thru : James E . Chandler, County Administrator <br /> From : Thomas W. Frame, General Services Director <br /> Subject : Indian River Countv Jail Detention Electronics/Siemens Building <br /> Technologies, Inc. Change Order #2 <br /> BACKGROUND : <br /> On March 6 , 2001 , the Board approved an agreement between the County and Siemens Building <br /> Technologies, Inc . , for the replacement of jail detention facilities such as control panels, video <br /> cameras and monitors , wire management improvements and integration of existing components <br /> in Control Room A in Building A and Control Room B in Building B . The cost of the work <br /> identified within the agreement was $ 245 ,375 . The work is approximately 98 % complete and <br /> has generated one change order in the amount of $ 6 , 850, raising the agreement cost to $ 252 , 225 <br /> The original amount budgeted was $ 500, 000 . <br /> Building C was built using the same type of controls but some items need replacing and other <br /> components need to be updated. In reviewing these needs with Siemens , it was found that the <br /> necessary components and upgrades could be installed for $ 36 , 785 as_ an extension of the <br /> existing agreement. <br /> Attached is a memo from Buildings & Grounds Superintendent, Lynn Williams, detailing the <br /> need and the how it can be retrofitted to fix the problem. <br /> With Change Order # 1 ($ 6 , 850) and the if this extension to the agreement in the form of a <br /> change order ($ 36 , 785 ) is approved, the total cost of up -grading and retrofitting will become <br /> $ 289 , 010 leaving $ 210 , 990 as a balance to the original budgeted $ 500, 000 . <br /> RECOMMENDATION : <br /> Since this would bring all controls up to date and would standardize all the controls in the jail , it <br /> would be wise to proceed now while the contractor is on site and near completion of the current <br /> work under agreement. Staff would recommend the Board ' s approval of Change Order #2 <br /> extending the agreement with Siemens Technologies , Inc . for the additional work in Control <br /> Room C in Building C (Pod C ) as specified in the letter to Lynn Williams dated September 5 , <br /> 2001 . <br /> SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 <br /> BK I <br /> - 30 - <br />
