The purpose of this contract is for the Water Utilities to have a firm available to provide maintenance and troubleshooting services on the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, which remotely monitors and operates the City’s water supply, storm water pumping and wastewater facilities.

Based upon the vendor’s performance, staff would like to extend the contract for the first option year. The vendor agreed to maintain rates and terms provided under the contract.
The term of the first option year is May 1, 2020 to April 30, 2021, with three one-year options remaining on the agreement.
