TRANSMITTAL LETTER FOR BOARD MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 20, 2018

 

 

COMMITTEE ON PROCUREMENT

 

Mr. John P. Murray, Acting Executive Director

 

Title

Issue purchase orders to JM Process Systems, Inc., to Furnish and Deliver Replacement Parts for the Dewatered Sludge Screw Conveyor at the Egan Water Reclamation Plant, in a total amount not to exceed $62,864.00, Account 101-67000-623270, Requisition 1498573

Body

 

Dear Sir:

 

Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to J M Process Systems, Inc., to furnish and deliver replacement parts for the dewatered sludge screw conveyor at the Egan Water Reclamation Plant.  The parts are manufactured by KWS Manufacturing Company, Ltd., and J M Process Systems, Inc. is the sole source for KWS parts in the Chicago area.

 

J M Process Systems, Inc., the sole source provider of the conveyor parts, has submitted prices for the parts required.  Inasmuch as JM Process Systems, Inc., is the only source of supply for the conveyor repair parts required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).

 

JM Process Systems, Inc., is registered to transact business in Illinois and is in good standing.

 

The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) is not applicable because this is primarily a furnish and deliver requisition.

 

In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to JM Process Systems, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $62,864.00.

 

Funds are available in Account 101-67000-623270.

 

Requested, Sergio E. Serafino, 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
