title
MOTION to authorize a bid waiver for CWPM, LLC for Bid No. 2023-08 (Oversized Bulky Waste Removal) due to lack of three bids, in accordance with Ordinance #200-001 (rev 1) "An Ordinance for Purchasing".
end
Background:
The Town bids out for bulky waste removal services at the Transfer Station every two (2) years. As has been the case the last several times, we did not receive three or more bids. Of the two we did receive, CWPM, LLC was the low bidder versus Willimantic Waster Paper Co., Inc. (Casella) over the 2-year period. The formula from the bid spec yielded $163,800 (fixed) for CWPM versus $167,075 (minimum) for Casella, based on the details of their respective offerings.
The proposals for each are attached along with the bid tabulation sheet, which just includes the base bid for the first of the two years.
Department Comment/Recommendation:
I recommend approval of a bid waiver to CWPM, LLC for bulky waste services in accordance with Bid No. 2023-08.
