Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation is for the option to establish a UTC contract for Hydrogen Peroxide for the Division of Water, the sole user. This contract will provide for the purchase of Hydrogen Peroxide for use as a peroxidation agent for potable waste at the City of Columbus' Dublin Road Water Plant. The term of the proposed option contract would be approximately three years, expiring March 31, 2019, with the option to renew for one (1) additional year. The Purchasing Office opened formal bids on December 10, 2015.
The Purchasing Office advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with the relevant provisions of Chapter 329 relating to competitive bidding (Solicitation No. SA006133). Seventy-six (76) bids were solicited: (M1A-0, F1-1, MBR-4). Two (2) bids were received.
The Purchasing Office is recommending award to the overall lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidder as follows:
Bonded Chemicals, Inc., MAJ, CC# 61-1162384 expires 06/10/2016, All Items, $1.00
Total Estimated Annual Expenditure: $30,000, Division of Water, the sole user
The company is 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.
