Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Han-Boone International, Inc. dba Fort Worth Gasket & Supply, to furnish and deliver one S M Seals Ltd. Water Turbine Shaft Seal to the Lockport Powerhouse. The water turbine shaft seal will be delivered approximately one week after the purchase order is received.
Han-Boone International, Inc. dba Fort Worth Gasket & Supply, the sole source provider of S M Seals Ltd. parts in the United States, has submitted pricing for the part required. Inasmuch as Han-Boone International, Inc. dba Fort Worth Gasket & Supply is the only source of the part required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Han-Boone International, Inc. dba Fort Worth Gasket & Supply, is not registered to transact business in Illinois, but has submitted a certificate of good standing from the State of Texas. The Director of Maintenance and Operations has given approval to move forward with the recommendation to award.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) and Affirmative Action Ordinance, Revised Appendix D are not applicable because this is a furnish and deliver contract available from one source.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order with Han-Boone International, Inc. dba Fort Worth Gasket & Supply, in an amount not to exceed $50,507.73.
Funds are available in Account 101-66000-634620.
Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:MS:es
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
