Explanation
BACKGROUND: For the option to establish two (2) UTC contracts to purchase PVC Pipe, Fittings, Flex Couplings & Storm Drainage Pipe for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. The term of the proposed option contract would be two (2) years, expiring April 30, 2009, with the option to renew for one (1) additional year. The Purchasing Office opened formal bids on February 22, 2007.
The Purchasing Office advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329.06 (Solicitation No. SA002302). 21 bids were solicited: (MBE-0, FBE-1, MAJ-20). 2 bids received: (MAJ-2). The solicitation consists of 6 groups of materials. The overall low bidder for each group has been selected. An additional award for Group 2 for only those items not quoted by the overall low bidder is being recommended. The Purchasing Office is recommending award to the lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidders as follows:
Site Supply, Inc., lowest overall bid Groups 2, 4, 5 and 6, MAJ, CC# 31-1350146, expires 3/20/09, $1.00
Discount Drainage Supplies, lowest bid Groups 1 and 3 and Group 2, items 19-24, 26-31 and 62, MAJ, CC#31-1231981, expires 3/29/08, $1.00
Total Estimated Annual Expenditure from the Division of Sewerage and Drainage: $50,000.00.
The companies are not debarred according to the Excluded Party Listing System of the Federal Government or prohibited from being awarded a contract according to the Auditor of State Unresolved Findings for Recovery Certified Search. This ordinance is being submitted as an emergency because, without emergency action, no less than 37 days will be added to this procurement cycle and the efficient delivery of valuable public services will be slowed.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding to establish these option contracts is budgeted in the Purchasing Contract Account. City Agencies will be required to obtain approval to expend from their own appropriations for their estimated annual expenditures.
