Issue a purchase order to Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, to Furnish and Deliver Three (3) Final Tank Drive Rebuild Kits for the Calumet Water Reclamation Plant, in an amount not to exceed $40,500.00, Account 101-68000-623270, Requisition 1494160
Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, to furnish and deliver three final tank drive rebuild kits for the Calumet Water Reclamation Plant. The purchase order will expire on December 31, 2018.
Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, the sole source provider, has submitted prices for the final tank drive rebuild kits. Inasmuch as Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, is the only source of supply for the final tank drive rebuild kits, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, 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 Walker Process Equipment, a Division of McNish Corporation, in an amount not to exceed $40,500.00.
Funds are available in Account 101-68000-623270.
Requested, Brett A. Garelli, Acting Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:MS: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 June 21, 2018
