Description/Agenda

SOUTH VALLEY SEWER DISTRICT JORDAN BASIN WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY __________________________________________ NOTICE OF PROPOSED SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT __________________________________________ THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION FOR COMPETITIVE BIDS OR FOR PROPOSALS __________________________________________ The Utah Code and the Procurement Policy of the South Valley Sewer District ('SVSD') provide that sole source procurements may be used under limited circumstances such as: (a) there is only one source for the procurement item; (b) transitional costs are a significant consideration and a cost-benefit analysis demonstrates that the award to a sole source is in the best interest of SVSD; or (c) circumstances render a standard procurement process impractical and not in the best interest of SVSD. The Procurement Officer of the SVSD has received a request to make the following sole source procurement, and gives public notice of the same. The purpose of this notice is to provide public notice as required by law and to determine whether there are other interested and qualified vendors that meet the requirements of SVSD for the proposed sole source procurement. Product and/or Service to be purchased: Dry polymer for use in dewatering and solids handling at the Jordan Basin Water Reclamation Facility. Contract Duration: September 2021 through September 2026 . Proposed Sole Source Supplier: SNF Polydyne Inc. 1 Chemical Plant Road, P.O. Box 279, Riceboro, GA 31323 USA. 800-848-7659. Estimated Total: $2.20/lb. of dry polymer + $0.077 per lb. tariff surcharge. Estimated one year supply of polymer 159,000 lbs. Estimated total cost for one year supply = $362,043 Sole Source Justification: For the following reasons, the District has determined this purchase will utilize the sole source procedures authorized by the Utah Procurement Code: - Polydyne has proven the most effective at optimizing the dewatering, coagulation, and flocculation for the solids handling process at JBWRF. - Polydyne has proven a reliable source of dry polymer during raw material shortages and shipping delays brought on by COVID-19, allowing for the continued operation of the facility without interruption or delay. - Current polymer equipment and operating procedures are established and consistent with this particular polymer. - Customer support and field staff have been responsive in the optimization, testing, and diagnosing of our system without additional cost to the District.
