Summary & Background: The Department of Public Works requests approval of the lowest responsible bidder, Ferguson Waterworks, to provide manhole, frames, grates, and accessories.

 

Scope of Work: This contract will provide manhole, frames, grates, and accessories to the Department of Public Works for the use throughout the North and South Fulton sanitary sewer service areas.

 

Community Impact: Manholes, frames, grates and accessories are essential in maintaining the sanitary sewer system.

A single bid analysis was conducted and the Department of Purchasing & Contract Compliance has determined it is in the County’s best interest to proceed with awarding this procurement.
