Agenda Item

Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on awarding Concrete Ready Mix to the lowest and best quotes received, Alpha Ready Mix and TXI pursuant to Tex. Loc. Gov’t Code § 262.0225(d) and § 262.0245.

Background

Ready Mix Concrete was formally bid and no competitive bids were received. Historically, bidding this commodity has resulted in minimum bid response. The Texas Local Government Code § 262.0225(d) and § 262.0245 allow the Purchasing Agent to recommend procedures for obtaining necessary items if no competitive bids are received. Recommendation was made to the Road and Bridge department to solicit quotes for the items originally bid out. Three quote responses were received. The responses were evaluated in the same manner as if they had been received during the initial bid process. Based upon review of these quotes received and evaluated, it is the recommendation to award as follows: Item#1 and Item#3 to Alpha Ready Mix and Item#2 and Item#4 to TXI.
