Explanation:
The Department of Public Utilities Water Treatment Plant, requires an agreement for the supply and delivery of antiscalant.
The Water Treatment Plant utilizes antiscalant in the membrane treatment process to ensure that the removed, dissolved solids do not plate out onto the surface of the membranes making the membranes ineffective.
The City of Pompano Beach, Florida, on January 28, 2014, issued Bid Number E-25-14 for the required Antiscalant and awarded the bid to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder Nalco Company on March 11, 2014.
Purchasing Ordinance, Section 38.40 (C)(5) allows the Director to procure, without following formal procedures, all goods and services which are subject of contracts with the state, its political subdivisions, the United States government, other governmental entities, or a corporation not for profit whose members are governmental entities, public officers, or any combination thereof, provided however, the goods and services are: (i) the subject of a price schedule negotiated by the state or the United States government, or (ii) the subject of a contract with another governmental entity or a corporation not for profit whose members are governmental entities, public officers, or any combination thereof, which contract is based strictly on competitive bids or competitive proposals and not on any preference.
Nalco Company of Naperville, Illinois has satisfactorily supplied the City of Hollywood with antiscalant previously.
The Director of Public Utilities and the Director of Procurement Services recommend that the City Commission issue the attached blanket purchase order to Nalco Company of Naperville, Illinois for the supply and delivery of antiscalant for an estimated annual expenditure of $53,466.70 based on firm, delivered prices.
Funding for the attached blanket purchase order has been provided for in the fiscal year 2014 budget in the Public Utilities Department's Water Treatment Chemical Account Number 42.4011.00000.536.005233 and will be budgeted in subsequent fiscal years.
