MOTION

 

Upon recommendation of Marqaicha Welch, Procurement Manager, the Board of Water Commissioners for the City of Detroit, Water and Sewerage Department authorizes the Director to approve DWSD Contract No. 6004748 for Patch Material, Bituminous: CP-5 Modified delivered in minimum of 40 Ton Truckloads with Cadillac Asphalt for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $270,000 and a term of one (1) year.

BACKGROUND / JUSTIFICATION

 

The Central Warehouse and West Yard’s function is to receive, stock, store and issue materials to various DWSD Departments to support the work of Field Services, Maintenance, Repair, and Operations. Patch material is essential for completion of many DWSD projects. Cold patch (specification #CP-5) is used year around to patch excavation holes on streets and sidewalks made by DWSD during repairs of water and sewer assets and similar service work orders. To support its work, DWSD’s Materials Management team maintains a readily available supply at both the CSF and West Yard warehouses. Cold patch is bid out annually due to the volatile pricing of the petroleum based product. This contract will assure that operations will run smoothly and to replenish stock preventing emergency spot buys and possible work stoppages.
