Appendix_A_-_Approved_Manufactures_List.pdf

Appendix A is an Approved Manufacturers List document prepared for the Mims Water Treatment Plant Mixing Improvements project by Brevard County Purchasing Services. The document comprehensively details approved manufacturers and specific product models for various wastewater service materials, including adhesive marking tape, air release and vacuum valves, casing spacers, check valves, concrete coatings, ductile iron fittings and pipes, pipe linings, electronic markers, gate valves, HDPE pipes and fittings, joint sealing compounds, manhole components, pipe couplings, PVC fittings, resilient connectors, substrate patching materials, and lift station materials. A critical requirement across all listed products is that they must be produced domestically.

The list serves as a critical reference for contractors bidding on the water treatment plant project, providing explicit guidance on acceptable manufacturers and specific model specifications for each category of materials. By establishing this pre-approved list, Brevard County ensures that all materials meet predetermined quality and performance standards, while simultaneously supporting domestic manufacturing. The document reflects the project's commitment to the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA) by mandating domestic production and providing contractors with a clear, structured framework for material selection. Each product category includes multiple manufacturer options, offering flexibility while maintaining stringent quality control.
