Issue purchase order to LAI, Ltd., to Furnish and Deliver Two Plunger Pumps for the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant, in an amount not to exceed $50,000.00, Account 201-50000-634650, Requisition 1494626
Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to LAI, Ltd., to furnish and deliver two plunger pumps for the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant. The plunger pumps will be delivered by June 30, 2018.
LAI, Ltd., the sole source provider for the Komline-Sanderson KSK-7.5 Simplex 7.5” plunger pumps, submitted prices for these plunger pumps as required. These will be used to replace the existing pumps. Inasmuch as LAI, Ltd., is the only source of supply for these plunger pumps, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
LAI, Ltd., is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable to this contract because this is primarily a furnish and deliver contract.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to LAI, Ltd., in an amount not to exceed $50,000.00.
Funds are available in Account 201-50000-634650.
Requested, Brett A.Garelli, Acting Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:MS:es
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 June 7, 2018
