Title
Pyrotechnical Services
History
In response to a request for pricing for the annual 4th of July fireworks display, staff received two proposals. Ace Pyro, LLC and Melrose Pyrotechnics, Inc. both submitted proposals of $23,000 per year for a three year contract. Both vendors met criteria set forth in the request for pricing.
Based on the 10 year history of providing quality fireworks to the Village of Orland Park, the numerous professional references, and the exceptional proposal presentation, staff is requesting approval to extend the three year contract to Melrose Pyrotechnics, Inc.
On January 11, 2010, this item was reviewed and approved by a vote of 2 to 1 by the Community Events and Outreach committe.
Financial Impact
The amount budgeted for the 2010 pyrotechnical services (Fourth of July) is $23,000. With the proposed contract, the cost for pyrotechnical services would remain at $23,000 per year for 2011 and 2012.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve accepting the proposal for the 2010 pyrotechnical services from Melrose Pyrotechnics Inc. of Kingsbury, IN at a cost not to exceed $23,000; and
Move to approve the option to automatically renew the contract with Melrose Pyrotechnics, Inc. for the July 4, 2011 and 2012 pyrotechnical services at a cost not to exceed $23,000 per year; and
Move to approve authorizing the Village Manager to execute the contract.
