Issue: Existing unit was not operational and obsolete in its ability to be calibrated.
Solution: Replace unit with exact updated unit from Sole vendor, who also has an annual contract with us to calibrate units.
Result: Return to Commissioners Court to approve the purchase from this Vendor
Background:
In February 04, 2016 a Purchase Order was obtained from our annual contractor that provides the calibration of all our flow meters to install a new meter. As per Auditor's review, this flow meter is not part of the annual contract and requires formal approval via court action.
