DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On August 17, 2021, the Board approved a contract with Alien Engineered Products, LLC to provide on-site metal fabrication and repair services at the Baseline Landfill and eighteen remote recycling centers. Due to challenges Marion County faced in retaining skilled labor, which had slowed repairs at the recycling centers, the County procured an additional contract with D&S Steel, Inc., approved on May 17, 2022, who submitted a bid at the same time as Alien Engineered Products, LLC under the same solicitation and serves as the secondary contractor to support these services. Both D&S Steel, Inc. and Alien Engineered Products, LLC have performed satisfactorily under their respective agreements. Marion County Solid Waste now seeks approval to renew contracts with both firms, exercising the second and final annual renewal options. If approved, the contracts will be valid through September 30, 2026.
Attached for review are draft contract amendments. Pending approval at today’s meeting, they will be sent to both contractors for signature and upon return, will be routed to the County Attorney, Clerk and Chairman for signatures.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; estimated annual expenditure of $50,000. Funding is from ZA427534-546301 (Solid Waste Disposal Fund). Annual costs will not exceed approved FY budget amounts without being brought back to the Board.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve and allow staff to issue, and upon approval by Legal, authorize the Chairman to execute the contract amendments with D&S Steel, Inc. and Alien Engineered Products, LLC under 21B-192.
