Title/Name/Summary
Public Works and Recreation & Parks Vendors over $25,000 - material orders only
History
Each year, Public Works budgets for materials to accomplish tasks by in house staff across four (4) divisions: Streets, Utilities, Natural Resources and Facilities, and Vehicle & Equipment; while Recreation & Parks does the same. Most of these purchases are from vendors within the Village or surrounding Chicagoland towns. Many of these purchases are blanket purchases due to unknown quantity needs or not knowing exact product that is needed due to the repair work to be accomplished. These purchases are through Purchase Order or P-cards.
The vendors’ product pricing is a main factor in selecting the vendor that is compared against similar vendor pricing. But, lowest pricing is not the only factor. Some other factors include excellent customer service, speed of delivery, availability of product, and distance to obtain the item/delivery service.
Because repeat vendor purchases that are below $25,000.00 may over the fiscal year add up to over $25,000.00 worth of materials, Public Works and Recreation & Parks is providing a list of vendors to be pre-approved by the Board per our purchasing policy. These vendors are expected to go over the $25,000.00 threshold at some point during the year.
The purchase of goods will be out of Board approved budget amounts in December 2023.
