Title
Bulk Material Purchase, Concrete - Proposal
History
Each year, Public Works crews repair deteriorated concrete curbs and sidewalk. Crews also repair concrete over various underground utility repairs. In order to obtain competitive pricing for the purchase of ready-mix concrete, staff solicits concrete suppliers prior to the start of the construction season. In addition to price, suppliers are asked to provide information regarding delivery hours, scheduling, short (small) loads, wait time, and any related charges.
For almost all concrete repair work completed by Public Works, 4000 PSI Concrete mix is utilized. Price quotes were submitted from three local suppliers: Ozinga Ready Mix Concrete, Inc. of Mokena, IL submitted a price of $121.00 (including $3/CY Environmental Charge) per cubic yard (4000 psi concrete); VCNA Prairie of Bridgeview, IL submitted a price of $135.00 per cubic yard (4000 psi concrete); and Wille Brothers Company of Oak Forest, IL submitted a price of $123.00 per cubic yard (4000 psi concrete).
Based on the submitted pricing, it is staff’s recommendation that the proposal submitted by Ozinga Ready Mix Concrete of Mokena, Illinois be accepted for the purchase of bulk concrete to be used for various concrete repairs in 2017.
On March 6, 2017, this item was reviewed by the Public Works Committee and recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
