Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue purchase orders to Drydon Equipment, Inc., to furnish and deliver Hayward Gordon, Varec, Bredel, Fairbanks Morse, and Amiad filtration pumps and parts, to various locations, on an as needed basis. All pumps and parts under this authority will be delivered prior to December 31, 2024.
Drydon Equipment, Inc., the sole source distributor for Hayward Gordon, Varec, Bredel, Fairbanks Morse, and Amiad filtration pumps and parts, has submitted prices for the pumps and parts required. Purchase orders will be issued for pumps and parts as needed based on the prices received from Drydon Equipment, Inc. Inasmuch as Drydon Equipment, Inc., is the only source of supply for the pumps and parts required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
The pumps and parts are needed in the primary, secondary, solids, and disinfection treatment processes.
Drydon Equipment, Inc., is registered to transact business in Illinois and is in good standing.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable because this is primarily a furnish and deliver contract.
The Affirmative Action Ordinance, Revised Appendix D and Appendix V is not applicable because the contract is a furnish and deliver contract.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue purchase orders to Drydon Equipment, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $510,000.00, on an as needed basis ending December 31, 2024. Purchase orders will be issued when the material is required. Payment will be based on the unit cost received by Drydon Equipment, Inc.
Funds for purchase orders to be issued under this Board authority will be limited by pricing periods for Accounts 101-67000, 68000, 69000-623090, 623270. The estimated expenditures for the approximate period of 05/01/2022 through 12/31/2022 are $158,000.00, 1/1/2023 through 12/31/2023 are $176,000.00, and 01/01/2024 through 12/31/2024 are $176,000.00. Funds for years 2023 and 2024 expenditures are contingent on the Board of Commissioners’ approval of the District’s budget for those years.
