RE:Wastewater Treatment & Water Treatment Plant Bulk Chemical Purchases - 1 Year Contract Extension

REQUEST:

Attached for your review and consideration by City Council are three proposed one year contract extensions for the bulk purchase of chemicals used in the treatment of wastewater and raw water.  Each one year contract extension contains the same unit pricing with terms and conditions currently outlined in Bid No. 14-005.  



DISCUSSION
:

On April 19, 2014 an Invitation to Bid No. 14-005 was advertised by the City requesting competitive proposals from vendors who could supply various chemicals in bulk for the purpose of raw water and wastewater treatment.  Sealed bids were received by the City Clerk on May 19, 2014 and opened on May 20, 2014.  Subsequent to staffs review of the submitted bids, Council approved the bid awards for the purchase of bulk Chemicals from Allied Universal Corporation, Chemtrade Chemicals US LLC., and Fort Bend Services, Inc.  Contract documents were executed between the City and the vendors that included an initial period of one year price guarantees and the option of two one year extensions should both parties agree to extend the original contract pricing in writing. The attached proposals are the second year of the two one year options.



RECOMMENDATION:

Approval of the one year extensions is recommended. 

 



BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for the purchase is budgeted and available in the Water Pollution Control, Reclaimed Water Production, and Water Production Operating Fund.
