Title
A Resolution of the City Commission accepting a recommendation of the City Manager to waive the competitive process of the Procurement Code for the purchase of a Wet Well Coating for PS-A Pump Station from C&I Construction & Design as a “Sole Source Procurement”, pursuant to Section 2-689 of the City’s Procurement Code.
Body
The Wet Well at Pump Station A, located at 1590 Campamento Avenue, requires some critically needed maintenance that includes replacement of the existing protective coating that has reached the end of its useful life due to damages caused by sewage gases.
Additionally, Miami-Dade Water & Sewer Department requires that all interior concrete surfaces of any wet well be coated with the PPC Coating System WW-200-1a/Damp Concrete, as manufactured by Polymorphic Polymers Corporation or approved equal.
PPC Coatings is the only producer and seller of Polymorphic Polymers Coatings and C&I Construction and Design is South Florida's sole certified applicator for this product. The rehabilitation cost for this work is estimated at $63,950 and Public Works is seeking approval for this amount or an amount not to exceed the available budget.
Under Section 2-689 of the Procurement Code, entitled “Sole Source Procurement,” an award may be made without competitive bids when there is only one source available to fulfill the needs of the City.
