Title

Vote to approve a contract with Thyssenkrupp Elevator for an upgrade/replacement of the elevator at the Chatham County Government Annex for $142,328.80

 

Abstract

Introduction & Background: The elevator at the Chatham County Government Annex is experiencing repetitive failures. The main factor is that the majority of the components of this elevator are approximately 40 years old. The County has a service agreement with Thyssenkrupp, so we sought their assistance in putting together a repair/replacement scope to make the much-needed improvements.

                     

Discussion & Analysis: Due to the elevator being much needed and used component of the facility and is required for ADA compliance, County staff met with Thyssenkrupp to develop a turn-key scope to modernize the elevator. Thyssenkrupp participates in the OMNIA State contract pricing which is helping the County expedite the repair.

 

How does this relate to the Comprehensive Plan: Provide infrastructure to support desired development; Become more resilient; Ensure public safety through adequate resources, plans, and partnerships.

 

Budgetary Impact: This project is an unplanned repair that will have an impact on the Facilities budget.  Cost for this work will be $142,328.80.

                      

Recommendation/Motion: Motion to approve a contract with Thyssenkrupp Elevator for an upgrade/replacement of the elevator at the Chatham County Government Annex for $142,328.80.
