HomeMy WebLinkAbout2018-04-24; City Council; ; Amendment No. 1 to the master sales agreement with Itron, Inc. dba IBS, in an amount not to exceed $148,316 for advanced metering infrastructureCustomers can currently view limited water usage information on their paper water bills and
through the on line billing system. The addition of real-time water usage data will allow CMWD
staff and customers to detect and respond more quickly to water leaks. This will assist with
water conservation efforts and the reduction of customer costs associated with water loss.
The master sales agreement includes four annual renewals for ongoing maintenance costs. The
first year of the master sales agreement expires on May 23, 2018. Staff requests that the Board
approve the year two annual renewal for maintenance services (May 23, 2018 through May 23,
2019) and an increase in funding to cover the cost of the new customer web portal.
Amendment No. 1 would also raise the upper limit of the annual maintenance cost for years
three through five to include maintenance of the WaterSmart system and establish not to
exceed limits for each ofthose renewals.
Amendment No. 1 includes an option to purchase up to 15 additional collector or repeater data
acquisition units. Tall buildings and geography can sometimes interfere with the ability of the
hardware to collect the data. Staff have already identified a few such areas, and additional
areas could be identified once the system is fully operational. When the hardware's
communication is obstructed, meters need to be read manually or collected via the drive by
method. Over the life of the system, the cost of manually collecting metered data in these areas
would exceed the cost of purchasing the additional data acquisition units.
Procurement
In accordance with city procurement policies and procedures, staff from CMWD and the city's
IT Department reviewed several customer portal software solutions via onsite demonstrations
provided by multiple vendors. Staff found WaterSmart Data Analytics to be the best fit for
CMWD staff and customer needs. Staff recommends entering into a sole-sourced direct-
purchase agreement with Itron, the vendor of the WaterSmart Data Analytics software. The
software will integrate into an existing platform within the Itron AMI system, in accordance
with Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.110 110 Exemptions C (items required to match or
be compatible with other equipment previously purchased by the city) and N (situations where
solicitations of bids or proposals for goods, services, or professional services would be, in the
discretion of the awarding authority, impractical, unavailing, impossible, or not in the best
interests of the city).
The alternative to sole-sourcing this agreement would be to choose a different vendor, which
would necessitate additional staff time to transfer information between the two systems and to
integrate with the existing Itron AMI system. This option would increase costs to implement
and maintain the data analytics software long-term. Staff has continued to receive high quality
services and equipment from Itron over the years and recommends continuing with Itron to
meet best industry standards.
Fiscal Analysis
The original agreement to upgrade to the AMI system was for $184,916 for the first year.
Amendment No. 1 for $148,316 increases the total contract amount for the first two years to
$333,232, plus annual software maintenance services of $40,500 in subsequent years. Sufficient
funds have been appropriated for this purchase in the fiscal year 2018 Water Operating Budget.
April 24, 2018 Item #9 Page 2 of 55
Included in Amendment No. 1 for an amount not to exceed $60,000 is an option to purchase up
to 15 collector or repeater data acquisition units, if needed. This amount is included in the
$148,316 figure above.
Annual maintenance costs for years three through five will be for an amount not to exceed
$78,316 each year.
Next Steps
Upon purchasing the WaterSmart software, CMWD will install the software and implement the
new technology. Once user testing is complete, CMWD staff will launch the web-based portal in
conjunction with a public awareness campaign to promote this new service to its customers.
Environmental Evaluation (CEQA)
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project"
within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change
in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment,
and therefore does not require environmental review.
Public Notification
This item was noticed in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public
viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled meeting date. Information about
the new web portal will be made available to the public using media methods such as bill
stutters, the district wide newsletter, email, social media, the city website, and other city
communication channels.
