Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Peterson and Matz, Inc., to furnish and deliver six Wilo pumps for the Calumet Water Reclamation Plant. The purchase order will expire on December 31, 2018.
Peterson and Matz, Inc., the sole source provider for the six pumps. Peterson and Matz, Inc., has submitted prices for the six pumps. Inasmuch as Peterson and Matz, Inc., is the only source of supply for the pumps required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Peterson and Matz, Inc., is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable because this is primarily a furnish and deliver order.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order with Peterson and Matz, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $96,000.00.
Funds are available in Account 201-50000-634650.
Requested, John Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations
