MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Steven M. Gohde, Assistant Director of Public Works 0` !J
DATE: April 5, 2018
RE: Approve Purchase of Manhole / Inlet Castings for Public Works Department ($113,000)
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works has adopted standards for the manhole and inlet castings to be used
within City -maintained Right -of -Way and easements. The standardization of the castings allows for a
limited variety of inlet and manhole castings to be stocked and ensures proper -sized items are available
for repair. Manhole castings are special ordered with the utility type cast into the lid to help identify the
facilities.
ANALYSIS
The Department of Public Works has typically ordered and supplied these castings for City -let contracts
to avoid paying contractor markup and sales tax. The City also avoids delays on construction projects by
having stock of the castings available, which allows project schedules to adjust for varying field
conditions and also allows for the projects to start earlier. The typical lead time for castings is three (3)
weeks. These castings will be provided by Neenah Foundry Company of Neenah, Wisconsin.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Department of Public Works needs approximately $113,000 worth of castings to complete the street
and utility construction work scheduled in the 2018 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and maintain a
stock of castings to accommodate field conditions. Funding for this purchase is included in the projects
listed in the Storm Sewer, Sanitary Sewer, and Water Main Construction Sections of the CIP.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Section 12-11 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that material purchases, when
standardization or compatibility is the overriding consideration, may be approved by the City Manager
without the use of formal, sealed quotes. In accordance with Section 12-11 of the Code, I am
recommending approval regarding this purchase.
Please advise me if you have any questions concerning this purchase.
Approved:
Mark A. Rohloff
City Manager
