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. 6006578 with Edward C Levy Detroit Group dba Edw.

BACKGROUND / JUSTIFICATION

 

Aggregate Slag is essential for repairing water service connections for DWSD customers. It is used as a filler to properly complete repair work that requires excavation from the DWSD Maintenance and Repair Division. Material will be delivered and stored at both DWSD warehouse locations: Central Service Facility, 6425 Huber and West Yard Facility, 13401 W. Outer Drive. This is a critical inventory item, and this contract will serve to replenish stock levels preventing emergency spot buys and possible work stoppage
