The General Government Committee:

1. In accordance with Section 71-11.1.C of the City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71 (Financial Control By-Law), authorized the amendment of Purchase Order Number 6051512 with 614128 Ontario Ltd, o/a Trisan Construction for the construction services related to the Replacement of Sewage Forcemains at Baby Point SPS, Contract Number 20TW-CTS-14CWD by an additional amount of $149,988 net of all taxes and charges ($152,628 net of HST recoveries), revising the current purchase order value from $5,075,630 to $5,225,618 net of all taxes and charges ($5,317,589 net of HST recoveries).

The purpose of this report is to seek authority to amend Purchase Order Number 6051512 with 614128 Ontario Ltd, o/a Trisan Construction (Trisan Construction) for the Replacement of Sewage Forcemains at Baby Point SPS, awarded under Request for Tender (RFT) Number DOC 2373695353, Contract Number 20TW-CTS-14CWD (Contract). Forcemain replacement on Brimley Road South was expedited to avoid conflict with other construction work that the Toronto Regional Conservation Authority (TRCA) had planned in 2022 and this work was added to the Contract through a previous purchase order amendment.

During construction at the Brimley Road South location, the contractor encountered a number of issues that were unforeseen which required additional work to be carried out. The total Purchase Order amendment required is $149,988 net of all taxes and charges ($152,628 net of HST recoveries), revising the current purchase order value from $5,075,630 to $5,225,618 net of all taxes and charges ($5,317,589 net of HST recoveries).
