merger or acquisition agreement. Failure to do so may adversely impact future invoice
payments.
4.0 METHOD OF AWARD
4.1 Bids will first be evaluated based upon bids received from a responsible bidder that
presents the best value to the City. A responsible bidder is defined as a bidder that:
4.1.1 Meets all the requirements listed in Part 2, Section 5.0.
4.1.2 Submits a completed bid package within the stated deadline and in accordance
with the bid specifications.
4.2 Bids that do not receive 50% or more of the total available points, excluding the points for
price, will be deemed non -responsive.
4.3 The following criteria will be used to determine the best value:
4.3.1 Cost of service — up to 40 points
4.3.1.1 Will be evaluated using: Bid Solicitation
4.3.2 Contractor's Experience Manufacturing Pumps of a Similar Size — up to 20 points
4.3.2.1 Will be evaluated using: Attachment E — Bidder Qualification Questionnaire
4.3.3 Contractor's References — up to 20 points
4.3.3.1 Will be evaluated using: Attachment D — Reference Sheet
4.3.4 Contractor's approach to testing the equipment following the installation— up to 20
points

4.4 In order for the City to receive adequate coverage on its requirements as specified in the
solicitation, the City reserves the right to make multiple awards.
4.5 The City reserves the right to accept or reject in whole or in part any or all bids received
and to make an award on the basis of individual item, combination of items, or overall bid,
as it is deemed in the best interest of the City.
4.6 The City reserves and shall be free to exercise the right to evaluate bid in relation to
performance record of bidder with the City itself, another municipal corporation of like size,
or private corporations during the past two-year period. Such precautions are deemed to be
in the public interest inasmuch as Vendor failure or inability to furnish items within the
prescribed time can create emergency situations and impose unnecessary hardship on
both the City as a municipal corporation and the public at large.
4.7 If Attachment B, Consideration of Location of Bidder's Principal Place of Business, is
completed by any Bidder, the City will review the Attachment to determine whether Local
Preference will apply to the award.

SUBJECT
(ALL) Authorize Execution of a One -Time Purchase Agreement with Pump Solutions, Inc. for the Replacement of Five Lift Station Pumps and
Startup Services for the Water Department in an Amount of $340,042.00
V#106 uliT,CW►17erirr•7TA
It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of a one-time purchase agreement with Pump Solutions, Inc. for the replacement of
five lift station pumps and startup services for the Water Department in an amount of $340,042.00.
DISCUSSION:
The Water Department approached the Purchasing Division for assistance with securing a one-time purchase for the replacement of five lift station
pumps and startup services. Under the proposed agreement, the vendor will provide the five non -clog submersible vertical lift station pumps. Once
the Water Department staff installs the pumps, the vendor will return to perform startup services to ensure the proper functioning of the pumps at lift
stations throughout Fort Worth. Purchasing issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) that consisted of detailed specifications regarding the specifications
for the pumps, the delivery and warranty requirements, and the startup services required to ensure the pumps' proper functioning.
The ITB was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on October 5, 2022, October 12, 2022, October 16, 2022, October 19, 2022, October 26,
2022, and November 2, 2022. The Cfty received three responses. However, upon evaluation, one bidder, Global Pumps Solutions, LLC did not
score at least 50% or more of the total available points for technical criteria and, therefore, was not qualified to receive pricing points.
An evaluation panel consisting of representatives from the Transportation and Public Works and 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.

After evaluation, the panel concluded that Pumps Solutions, Inc. presented the best value to the City. Therefore, the panel recommends that
Council authorize this one-time purchase with Pump Solutions, Inc. Staff certifies that the recommended vendor bid met specifications.
Funding is budgeted in the Wastewater Public Utility Department's W&S Capital Projects Fund for the purpose of funding the Sewer FY21 Non -
Fleet Eqmt and Sewer FY 22 Non -Fleet Eqmt projects, as appropriated.
DVIN-BE: A waiver of the goal for Business Equity subcontracting requirement is approved by the DVIN-BE, in accordance with the Business
Equity Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
AGREEMENT TERMS: Upon City Council approval, this agreement shall begin upon execution and expire one year from that date.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by
relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Coundl approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
FISCAL INFORMATION 1 CERTIFICATION:

Egmt and Sewer FY 22 Non -Fleet Eqmt projects within the W&S Capital Projects Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and
execution of the purchase agreement. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Water Dopartment"has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds.
