Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue purchase orders and enter into an agreement with Central Scale and Supply Company, Inc., to furnish parts and service for biosolids truck scale maintenance at CALSMA, LASMA, and at the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant. The purchase orders will expire December 31, 2015.
Central Scale and Supply Company, Inc., the sole source provider of the parts and services, has submitted prices for the parts and services required. Inasmuch as Central Scale and Supply Company, Inc. is the only source of supply for the parts and services required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids. (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Central Scale and Supply Company, Inc., is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable because of the specialized nature of the work. If trade work is required, in-house trades will perform the work.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue purchase orders and enter into an agreement with Central Scale and Supply Company, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $33,000.00.
Funds are available in Accounts 101-66000, 69000-612650, 612680, 623270.
