RE: Award Bid for Public Works Contract No. 12 -10 for Water Filtration Plant Chemical and
Electrical System Improvements Projects by August Winter & Sons, Inc. 1 $897,100.00
BACKGROUND
This project includes replacement of Water Filtration Plant chemical feed systems and electrical
equipment that has reached its useful life and was included in the 2011 Capital Improvements Plan.
Chemical feed equipment includes the alum feed system and the second phase of replacement of the
chlorine and ammonia system. Electrical improvements include replacement of variable frequency drives
on backwash water pumps and the plant uninterruptable power supply (UPS) that powers the computer
control system during power outages until the back -up generators come on line.
ANALYSIS
Bids were opened on June 5, 2012 with two contractors bidding on the project. The bids were reviewed
by our consultant, CH2M Hill Engineers, Inc., and the recommendation is to reject the Bid Alternate for
extended warranty on the UPS and award the low bid to August Winter & Sons of Appleton, Wisconsin in
the amount of $897,100.00.
FISCAL IMPACT
This project is included in the 2011 Capital Improvements Program under the Property Improvements and
Equipment Sections (Water Utility Fund), and the necessary funding is available for this project.
RECOMMENDATIONS
recommend award to August Winter & Sons, Inc. of Appleton in the amount of $897,100.00 for this
project.
