Mayor and Council Communication
DATE: Tuesday, September 27, 2022 REFERENCE NO.: **M&C 22-0749
LOG NAME: 13P22-0135 LG DIAMETER SEWER INSPECTION & CLEANING SV WATER LSJ
SUBJECT:
(ALL) Authorize Purchase Agreement for Large Diameter Sewer Inspection and Cleaning Services with
Ace Pipe Cleaning, Inc., for an Annual Amount Up to $2,500,000.00 and Authorize Four Annual Renewal
Options for the Same Annual Amount for the Water Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize a purchase agreement for large diameter sewer
inspection and cleaning services with Ace Pipe Cleaning, Inc., for an annual amount up to
$2,500,0000.00 and authorize four annual renewal options for the same annual amount for the
Water Department.
DISCUSSION:
The Water Department approached the Purchasing Division to finalize an annual agreement for large
diameter sewer inspection and cleaning services. Under the proposed Agreement, the vendor will inspect
and provide cleaning services for the City's sanitary sewer lines on an as needed basis. In order to
procure these services, Purchasing issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 22-0135. The ITB consisted of
detailed specifications describing the vendor's responsibilities and requirements to inspect and clean
the sewer lines throughout the City.
The ITB was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram for four consecutive Wednesdays beginning on
May 11, 2022, through June 1, 2022. The City received two bids. However, upon evaluation, BCAC
Underground LLC, did not score at least 50\% or more of the total available points for technical criteria,
therefore, they were not qualified to receive pricing points.
An evaluation panel comprised of representatives of the Water Department reviewed and scored the
submittals using Best Value criteria. The individual scores were averaged for each of the criteria and the
final scores are listed in the table below.

(d) Cost of service

After evaluation, the panel concluded that Ace Pipe Cleaning Inc., presented the best value for the City.
Therefore, the panel recommends that Council authorize this agreement with Ace Pipe Cleaning
Inc., based on Best Value criteria. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of these services will be
purchased. Staff certifies that the recommended vendor's bid met specifications.
Funding is budgeted in the in the Water Department rollup within the Water and Sewer Fund.
AGREEMENT TERMS - Upon City Council approval, this agreement shall begin upon execution and
expire one year from that date.
RENEWAL TERMS - The contract may be renewed for up to four successive one-year terms at the City's
option. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that the City Council has
appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term.

appropriated, in the Water and Sewer Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and
execution of the agreement. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Water Department has the
responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
