Acceptance of renewal of contract to K & W Underground, Inc. for directional drilling services for the Field Operations Division of Public Works. .
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Summary: On January 31, 2018, three (3) bids were received for directional drilling services. These services include the installation of water and sewer mains ranging from 6-inch to 12-inch, installation of water service laterals ranging in size from ¾-inch to 4-inch and all necessary preparation work needed for the performance of this service. The directional drilling service is utilized when open-cut installation of a water or sewer main would be too disruptive to the surrounding area. The impact to our residents is less when the City can use the directional drilling services. K & W Underground, Inc. was the lowest most responsible and responsive vendor and was awarded the contract.
Staff recommends renewal of the contract with K & W Underground, Inc. for directional drilling services for 2019-2021.
