Body
Dear Sir:
On May 6, 2010, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to advertise for bids, Contract 10-725-11, Recondition Blower Motor No. 1 at the Egan Water Reclamation Plant.
In response to a public advertisement of June 2, 2010, a bid opening was held on June 22, 2010. The bid tabulation for this contract is:
DREISILKER ELECTRIC MOTORS, INC. $22,995.00
STEINER ELECTRIC COMPANY $24,400.00
AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL MOTOR SERVICE, LLC $26,281.00
Two hundred forty-eight (248) companies were notified of the contract being advertised and fifteen (15) companies requested specifications.
Dreisilker Electric Motors, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder, is proposing to perform the contract in accordance with the specifications. The estimated cost for this contract was $23,000.00, placing the bid of $22,995.00 approximately equal to the estimate.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement was not included in this Contract because the work will be performed at the Contractor’s facilities. Any work within District premises will be performed by District trades personnel.
The revised Appendix D was not included in this contract because the estimate is less than the minimum threshold established by Section 4 of the Affirmative Action Ordinance.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to award Contract 10-725-11 to Dreisilker Electric Motors, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $22,995.00, subject to the contractor furnishing a performance bond in form satisfactory to the Law Department and approved by the Director of Procurement and Materials Management. Funds are available in Account 101-67000-612650.
