THAT the required funds be drawn from the approved 1994 Public Works Department Capital Budget, account #7203-00000-0505 . BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: A tender was publicly advertised and invited in June, 1994, for the supply and installation of Fuel Tank and Lubreel Monitoring Systems at the Hampton and Orono Depots, as required by the Department of Public Works. No Bids were received at that time. One of the reasons there were no bids is the system must be compatible with the Petro Vend Equipment which was purchased last year. This requirement subsequently reduces the number of potential bidders to those that can provide Petro Vend Equipment. While there are companies in this area that could meet this requirement, they declined to bid due to either their present work load or they felt they could not bid competitively. P A- TMs is rn.rneu ai necvc�o pnren i REPORT NO. : TR-61-94 PAGE 2 TENDER CL94-34 Subsequent to the tender closing, a proposal was received from KLD Construction Ltd. who were the suppliers of the original equipment. They did not submit a bid at the time of the tender call as they did not receive the necessary tender documents . The total bid price of $47,232 .88 is within the $55,000. 00 provided for in the 1994 Public Works Capital Budget, account #7203-00000- 0505, as reflected on page 61 of the Capital Budget. The Treasurer has reviewed the funding requirements and concurs with the recommendation. Queries with respect to department needs, specifications, etc . , should be referred to the Director of Public i Works. After review and analysis of the bids by Purchasing and Public Works, it was mutually agreed that the bid from KLD Construction Ltd. , Ajax, Ontario, be recommended for the tender award. The subject firm has previously provided satisfactory service for the Municipality of Clarington. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, y are arano, H.BSc . ,AMCT. , W.H.
