| TO: | City of New Port Richey City Council | | FROM: | Robert M. Rivera, Public Works Director | | DATE: | 7/8/2021 | | RE: | Wastewater Treatment Plant/Water Treatment Plant Bulk Chemical Purchase ITB21-008 Award |
REQUEST:
Attached for your review and consideration for approval by City Council are the results of the bids received for the bulk purchase of Sodium hypochlorite and award the low bid to Allied Universal Corporation.
DISCUSSION:
On June 10, 2021 three (3) sealed bids were received by the City Clerk and opened on June 11, 2021. The results of the bid tabulation identified the apparent low bidder as Allied Universal Corporation for bulk purchase of sodium hypochlorite at $0.66 a gallon (gl). This is an increase of the current $0.125 cents per gallon rate or $21,000 per year increase for the WWTP and approximately a $16,000 increase for the WTP. The other bid submitted was from Odyssey Manufacturing Company for $0.76/gl. The other bid received was disqualified due to submitting an incomplete bid document. Subsequent to the bid tabulation, Wastewater Treatment Plant personnel reviewed and verified performance standards of the sodium hypochlorite as describe in the bid documents and have confirmed that Allied Universal Corporation has met all of the terms of the bid documents.
RECOMMENDATION:
The recommended action by staff of Council is to approve the bid tabulation and award the low bid for the purchase of hypochlorite from Allied Universal Corporation.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for the purchases is budgeted and available in the Water Production No 401105-45221, Reclaimed Water Production No. 401111-45221, and Water Pollution Control No. 401112-45221. | | | |
