Item - 2023.GG3.2

The General Government Committee:

1. In accordance with Section 71-11.1C of the City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71 (Financial Control), amended Contract Number 47023076 issued to Super Save Toilet Rentals, to increase the contract value by $1,801,368.91, net of all applicable taxes and charges ($1,833,073.00 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries), revising the total contract value from $748,417 to $2,549,786 excluding Harmonized Sales Tax ($2,594,662 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries).

The purpose of this report is to seek authority to amend Blanket Contract Number 47023076 issued to Super Save Toilet Rentals Incorporated for the non-exclusive rental, delivery, setting in place, servicing and removal of Portable Chemical Toilets, which was issued as a result of a corporate call, Request for Quotation Document Number 2305198436, for a period of three years from date of award to April 30, 2023 with the option to renew for two additional separate one year periods at the sole discretion of the City and subject to budget approval.

This amendment is required to ensure the initial period remains in compliance along with the subsequent option years through to April 30, 2025. Covid-19 response including regulatory and programming requirements in parks and open spaces from 2020 to 2022 resulted in a significant increase in use of portable toilets and handwashing stations, when compared to the historical use of these units. As a result, estimated demand for future use for the remainder of the contract remains at an expanded level, this amendment is intended to avoid overspending of the contract over its remaining life until April 30, 2025.

The total value of the Blanket Contract Amendment being requested is for an additional $1,801,368.91 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($1,833,073.00 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) revising the current blanket contract value from $748,417 to  $2,549,786 excluding Harmonized Sales Tax ($2,594,662 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries).
