Mr. David St. Pierre, Executive Director
 
Title
Issue purchase order to Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., to Furnish and Deliver Dorr-Oliver Grinder Parts to the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant, in an amount not to exceed $50,000.00, Account 101-69000-623270, Requisition 1350845
Body
 
Dear Sir:
 
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., to furnish and deliver Dorr-Oliver grinder parts to the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant.  This purchase order will expire December 31, 2014.
 
Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., the sole source provider of the Dorr-Oliver Grinder, has submitted pricing for the parts required.  Inasmuch as Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., is the only source of supply for the parts required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
 
Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., is registered and in good standing to transact business in the State of Illinois.
 
The parts are manufactured or assembled in the United States.
 
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable 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 Marshall-Bond Pumps, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $50,000.00.
 
Funds for the 2013 expenditures in the amount of $25,000.00, are available in Account 101-69000-623270.  The estimated expenditures for 2014 are $25,000.00.  Funds for the 2014 expenditures are contingent on the Board of Commissioners' approval of the District's budget for that year.
 
Requested, Manju Prakash Sharma, Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:JN:sk
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 July 11, 2013
