Summary: This time extension will allow the vendor to continue services as they relate to the following JOC projects:
#1 Provident Hospital Ejector Pump Replacement: The current ejector pumps are unreliable and could ultimately begin to fail. Failure of these pumps would impact critical hospital operations. The lead times for the ejector pumps will carry this project beyond the expiration date of the vendor’s existing contract, but this work must be prioritized due to its critical and essential nature.
#2 Provident Renal Dialysis Clinic Roof Top Unit (RTU) Replacement: At fourteen (14) years old, the facility’s existing RTU has exceeded its useful life and needs to be replaced. The lead time for the replacement RTU will carry this project beyond the expiration date of the vendor’s existing contract, but this work needs to be prioritized in order to remain prepared during these winter months.
Competitive bidding procedures were followed in accordance with the Cook County Procurement Code. Bids were solicited for County-Wide Job Order Contract - SBE Mechanical Construction. Autumn Construction Services, Inc. of Lombard, Illinois was the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder.
