Urben, General Services Bureau Manager DATE: March 10, 2015 RE: Bid for Industrial Wastewater Sampling and Analysis Services BACKGROUND The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources requires discharges from industry to the public sanitary sewers be monitored to prevent the discharge of wastes that can interfere with treatment processes at our wastewater treatment plant. There are 24 industries in our Industrial Pre- Treatment program and some have multiple sampling requirements. There are currently 35 sampling locations in the program. These sampling and analysis services must be conducted by a qualified laboratory. Purchasing staff worked with Wastewater staff to develop bid specifications seeking qualified laboratories to perform these services for a three-year term (2015, 2016 and 2017). ANALYSIS The bid was sent to known vendors that provide these services. Bids were received on March 9, 2015. The bid tab is attached. While three bids were initially received, staff review concluded only one bidder (Badger Laboratories and Engineering Inc.) provided the necessary documentation and paperwork required in the bid specifications. Staff review of Badger Laboratories and Engineering Inc.'s bid concluded it met the minimum bid specifications. Badger Laboratories and Engineering Inc. is the current provider for these services and Wastewater staff is very satisfied with their past performance. FISCAL IMPACT The fiscal impact of these services for 2015 and 2016 will be $52,148 per year and $54,660 for 2017 for a total of$158,956 over this three year term. Costs for these services are billed to the local industries that are required to participate with this program. There is adequate funding available in the Sewer Utility Pre-Treatment Program account(A/N#: 551-1955-6401-00000) for these services. RECOMMENDATION Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this three year bid (2015-2017) to Badger Laboratories and Engineering Inc. for$52,148 in 2015 and 2016 and$54,660 in 2017.
