Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with Hach Company to provide maintenance, calibration, and repair services of various Hach equipment located in the North Service Area. Services will commence upon receipt of the purchase order and be completed by December 31, 2023.
Hach Company, the sole source provider of maintenance, calibration, and repair services of the Hach equipment, has submitted pricing for the required services. Inasmuch as Hach Company is the only source of supply for the required services, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Hach Company 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 Hach Company is the sole provider of these parts.
In view of the foregoing, it is requested that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to Hach Company, in an amount not to exceed $28,776.00.
Funds are available in Account 101-67000-612650
Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:MS: np
Respectfully Submitted, Marcelino Garcia, Chairman Committee on Procurement
