That particular PO was a 3 informal quote procure for the Yaskawa IQ1000 VFD chosen to replace the obsolete General Electric line. The bidding process was documented on PO 1502, but that PO was subsequently delayed due to budget constraints. PO 1502 was ultimately not used and instead the purchase was consolidated onto PO 2432 one year later. The three bidders are in the notes for PO 1502:

GPEC (Karl),

Boons Ferry Electric,

Captitol Electric (gary@cepdx.com)

Only GPEC was responsive. In addition, by 2019 GPEC had also won the on-call Electrician services contract for the City.

Respectfully,

Cindy,

GPEC is our on-call electrician. A majority of the cost is in materials that we procure theu them. I believe this was also an emergency repair. Andy will have quote and other info.

As far as #2, it will have to wait until I get back next week to pull the documents.

Thx,

Chaunee,

We are testing ORS 279 procurement law and have selected to following two projects/repairs:

1. City paid out $47,624.87 to GPEC Electrical Contractors on 11/18/19 The description for the invoice was ”for VFD replacement for transfer #3, Effluent #1 and #2”. Could you provide some background information as far as how the Vendor was selected? Did they bid on the project? Could you provide any available support for their selection?
2. The City used TEK Construction for work related to the WTP. Could you provided us with the following documentation related to this project:

a. Notice of publication for bid
b. Bid comparison worksheet
c. Notice of award
d. Council approval by resolution
e. Contractor provided certificate of insurance coverage in the City’s name

Please let me know if you have any questions.
