Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue purchase orders to Superior Industrial Equipment LLC, to provide Worthington pump parts to the Calumet and Kirie Water Reclamation Plants. This equipment will be delivered before December 31, 2023.
Superior Industrial Equipment LLC, the sole source provider of this equipment, has submitted pricing for the equipment required. Inasmuch as Superior Industrial Equipment LLC is the only source of the equipment required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Superior Industrial Equipment LLC is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) is not applicable because the requirement does not fall under the provisions of the MPLA.
The Affirmative Action Ordinance, Revised Appendix D and Appendix V is not included because Superior Industrial Equipment LLC is the sole provider of these parts.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue purchase orders to Superior Industrial Equipment LLC in an amount not to exceed $323,050.20.
Funds are available in Accounts 101-67000, 68000-623270.
