LOG NAME: 13PAMEND 18-0466 PVC SEWER FITTINGS SC WATER
SUBJECT
Authorize Amendments to Existing Purchase Agreements with Ferguson Enterprises, LLC, Core & Main LP, and Fortiline, Inc. for PVC Sewer
Fittings Increasing the Amount by $25,000.00 for a New Combined Annual Amount Up to $125,000.00 for the Water Department (ALL COUNCIL
DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize amendments to existing Purchase Agreements with Ferguson Enterprises, LLC, Core & Main
LP, and Fortiline, Inc. for PVC Sewer Fittings to increasing the amount by $25,000.00 for a new combined annual amount up to $125,000.00 for
the Water Department.
DISCUSSION:
On September 11, 2018, the Purchasing Manager authorized Purchase Agreements (Bid No. 18-0446) with Ferguson Enterprises, LLC, Core &
Main LP, and Fortiline, Inc. for PVC Sewer Fittings in an annual amount not to exceed $100,000.00. An additional $25,000 is needed for the
remainder of the term for a new annual amount of $125,000.00. The increase will provide enough funding for continued purchases for the
remainder of the contract term for the Water Department.
A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE Office, in
accordance with the BIDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities
are negligible.
This agreement may be renewed at the City's option for two additional one-year terms. The renewal action will not require City Council approval
provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal terms.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously appropriated, in the Water & Sewer Fund to
support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the amendments. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Water
Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
