Explanation

BACKGROUND: For the option to purchase 300 Gallon Refuse Containers for Refuse Collection. The term of the proposed option contract will be three (3) years. Contract is through December 31, 2009. The Purchasing Office opened formal bids on August 3, 2006.

The Purchasing Office advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329.06 (Solicitation No. SA002103 HJB) Twelve (MAJ:12, MBE:0, FBE:0) bids were solicited; One (1) (MAJ:1) bids was received.

The Purchasing Office is recommending award to the lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidder:

Rotonics Manufacturing MAJ, CC#362467474 (expires 11/03/2006.

This company is not debarred according to the Federal Excluded Parties Listing or the State Auditor's Findings For Recovery Database.
