5-Q1. Detailed Bid Tab.xlsx

This is a detailed bid tabulation file for Toho Water Authority's competitive chemical procurement for water and wastewater treatment facilities in Florida. The document presents bid results for multiple chemical supplies including sulfuric acid (IFB-20-159) with an estimated requirement of 13,500 gallons, and liquid carbon dioxide (IFB-20-130) with an estimated requirement of 45,000 gallons or pounds. Brenntag Mid-South submitted the sole timely bid for sulfuric acid at $2.370 per gallon totaling $31,995, while NexAir was the only responsive bidder for carbon dioxide at $2.630 per gallon ($118,350) or $0.310 per pound ($13,950). The tabulation also references ammonium sulphate availability through a piggyback agreement with Hawkins Inc via the City of Palm Coast Florida, while aluminum sulphate and liquid oxygen received no bids.

The document indicates that only timely submitted offers were considered, with late submissions rejected, and apparent low bidders are subject to evaluation and review before award intent. The sulfuric acid and carbon dioxide procurements each had single responsive vendors, suggesting limited market competition for these specialized chemical supplies. The inclusion of a piggyback agreement option for ammonium sulphate demonstrates the authority's strategic approach to leverage existing contracts from other jurisdictions, while the lack of bids for aluminum sulphate and liquid oxygen may indicate market supply constraints or specification issues requiring procurement strategy revision.
