Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Innomotics, LLC to furnish and deliver NXGI to NXG PRO+ medium voltage VFD control upgrade equipment to the Calumet and Kirie Water Reclamation Plants. All parts will be delivered before December 31, 2023.
Innomotics, LLC, the sole source provider for the variable frequency drives, has submitted prices for the parts required. Inasmuch as Innomotics, LLC 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).

The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) is not applicable because the requirement does not fall under the provisions of the MPLA.

In view of the foregoing, it is requested that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase orders to Innomotics, LLC, in an amount not to exceed $161,680.00
Funds are available in Accounts 101-67000, 68000-623070.
