HomeMy WebLinkAbout05.d.01 CA Piggyback City of Gainesville Instrumentation and Controls EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
AGENDA ITEM:
Request for advance approval to Piggyback on the City of Gainesville Contract #RFSQ-2024-104-C
with Electric Machine Control, Inc. (EMC) for a General Service Agreement for Instrumentation and
Controls.
Date: July 2, 2026
BACKGROUND:
CCUA currently has no formal agreement with a control panel provider capable of integrating with
CCUA's Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition(SCADA)system.Establishing this agreement will
allow CCUA to upgrade its current lift station controllers to units that are SCADA-ready and can be
accessed remotely. This advancement will significantly reduce the number of physical inspections
currently required at the stations. Additionally, staff will be able to diagnose issues remotely when
alarms are received.
Staff is requesting authorization to enter into a contractual arrangement with EMC by"piggybacking"
with their existing contract with the City of Gainesville for the General Service Agreement for
Instrumentation and Controls. The City of Gainesville competitively bid and awarded this agreement
to EMC.
Staff reviewed the requirements of the City of Gainesville Contract#RFSQ-2024-104-C and received
confirmation from EMC that CCUA is eligible to utilize this contract. EMC informed staff that they
can fulfil the request promptly through the City of Gainesville Contract for procurement.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff respectfully request approval from the Board of Supervisors to Piggyback on the City of
Gainesville Contract#RFSQ-2024-104-C with Electric Machine Control,Inc.,for the General Service
Agreement for Instrumentation and Controls.

constitute or be deemed a waiver of GRU's right thereafter to enforce those rights, nor will any single or

other right.
3.17. DISCLOSURE AND CONFIDENTIALITY
a). Florida's Public Records Law, Chapter 119, Florida Statutes, includes numerous exemptions to the
general requirement to disclose information to the public in response to a public record's request.
Exemptions are found in various provisions of the Florida Statutes, including but not limited to Section
119.071, Florida Statutes (General exemptions from inspection or copying of public records), and
Section 119.0713, Florida Statutes(Local government agency exemptions from inspection or copying of
public records). Section 815.045, Florida Statutes(Trade secret information), provides that trade secret
information as defined in Section 812.081, Florida Statutes (Trade secrets;theft, embezzlement;
unlawful copying; definitions; penalty) is confidential and exempt from disclosure because it is a felony
to disclose such records.The Parties understand and agree that Florida's Public Records Law is very
broad and that documents claimed by a Party to be confidential and exempt from public disclosure
pursuant to the Public Records Law may in fact not be deemed such by a court of law.Accordingly,the
following provisions shall apply:
1. Identifying Trade Secret or Otherwise Confidential and Exempt Information. For any records or
portions thereof that Contractor claims to be Trade Secret or otherwise confidential and exempt
from public disclosure under the Public Records Law, Contractor shall:
9
General Contract/Agreement#RFSQ-2024-104-C
Title: GENERAL SERVICE AGREEMENT(GSA) FOR INSTRUMENTATION &CONTROLS
i. Specifically identify the records or specific portions thereof that are confidential and
exempt and reference the particular Florida Statute that grants such status. Provide one
redacted copy of the record and one copy of the record with the confidential and exempt
information highlighted. Contractor shall take care to redact only the confidential and
exempt information within a record.
ii. Provide an affidavit or similar type of evidence that describes and supports the basis for
Contractor's claim that the information is confidential and exempt from public disclosure.
2. Request for Trade Secret or Otherwise Confidential and Exempt Information.
i. In the event GRU receives a public records request for a record with information labeled
by Contractor as Trade Secret or otherwise as confidential and exempt, GRU will provide
the public record requester with the redacted copy of the record and will notify Contractor
of the public records request.
ii. However and notwithstanding the above, in the event that GRU in its sole discretion
finds no basis for Contractor's claim that certain information is Trade Secret or otherwise
confidential and exempt under Florida's Public Records Law,then GRU shall notify
Contractor in writing of such conclusion and provide Contractor a reasonable amount of
time to file for declaratory action requesting a court of law to deem the requested
information as Trade Secret or otherwise as confidential and exempt under Florida's Public
Records Law. If Contractor fails to file for declaratory action within the reasonable amount
of time provided,then GRU will disclose the information requested.
iii. If a public records lawsuit is filed against GRU requesting public disclosure of the
information labeled by Contractor as Trade Secret or otherwise as confidential and
exempt, GRU shall notify Contractor and Contractor shall intervene in the lawsuit to
defend the nondisclosure of such information under Florida's Public Records Law.
iv. Contractor hereby indemnifies and holds GRU, its officers and employees harmless
from any and all liabilities, damages, losses, and costs of any kind and nature, including but
not limited to attorney's fees, that arise from or are in any way connected with
Contractor's claim that any information it provided to GRU is Trade Secret or otherwise
confidential and exempt from public disclosure under Florida's Public Records Law.
b). "Work Product" may include creative work which may lead to programs, intellectual properties,
computer software, computer programs, codes, text, hypertext, designs, and/or any other work
products associated with or arising directly out of the performance of the Work.
3.18. PUBLIC RECORDS
If Contractor is either a "contractor" as defined in Section 119.0701(1)(a), Florida Statutes, or an
"agency" as defined in Section 119.011(2), Florida Statutes, Contractor shall:
a.) Keep and maintain public records, as defined in Section 119.011(12) of the Florida Statutes, required

requirements. If the contractor keeps and maintains public records upon completion of the contract,the
