Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes an amendment to the competitively selected contract with OPEN Regenerative Technologies Inc. to provide software and support services to implement the Building Energy Savings Program. The original contract was $612,125 for the period March 1, 2024, through February 28, 2029. The Sustainability and Resilience Manager has determined that additional services are needed to develop and implement materials to support the tune-up requirements of the program and is proposing an amendment to the contract in the amount of $33,450 for these additional services. A building tune-up is a process wherein property owners have a qualified professional assess a building’s existing energy systems, controls, and maintenance practices and perform no- to low-cost operational adjustments, maintenance, or minor repairs that improve system performance and save energy. Funding for the amendment is available in the 2024 Sustainability Improvements capital budget. No appropriation is necessary.
