Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Sulzer Pumps Solutions, Inc., to furnish and deliver one Sulzer high speed turbo blower for the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant. The purchase order will expire on December 31, 2018.
Sulzer Pumps Solutions, Inc., the sole source provider, has submitted prices for the high speed blower required. Inasmuch as Sulzer Pumps Solutions, Inc., is the only source of supply for the high speed blower, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Sulzer Pumps Solutions, 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 requested that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to Sulzer Pumps Solutions, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $156,210.00.
Funds are available in Account 201-50000-634650.
Requested, John Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:JN:dp
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for February 1, 2018
