Subject:
Construction Agreement No. AI2206.401, with Rural Electric, Inc., for the Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) Replacement
Proposed Motion:
Move City Council award Construction Agreement No. AI2206.401 to Rural Electric, Inc., for the Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) replacement, in an amount not to exceed $225,800.
Background/Discussion:
The Airport Weather Observing System (AWOS) at the Chandler Municipal Airport serves the flying public as a critical item for aviation safety. AWOS provides pilots data such as cloud ceiling and sky conditions, runway surface conditions, precipitation, visibility, temperature, dew point, and altimeter setting, as well as the wind speed, gusts, and wind direction. The existing AWOS equipment, installed in 2012, is nearing the end of its useful life, and the manufacturer's supply of replacement components is limited. This project will greatly reduce the ongoing maintenance costs of the aging AWOS currently installed.
The project scope of work includes the replacement of the existing AWOS with a new system that adds precipitation identification, intensity, and thunderstorm/lightning reporting (AWOS III-PT) equipment on the existing AWOS facility foundations and towers located at the Chandler Municipal Airport.
The agreement completion time is 300 calendar days following notice to proceed.
