Background:
The Fayetteville Public Works Commission during their meeting on February 26, 2025, approved the bid recommendation to award the purchase of Stator Vane Segments to Technology Services, Orlando, FL, the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder in the best interests of PWC, in the total amount of $189,293.84.

BIDDERS TOTAL PRICE
Turbine Technology Services, Orlando, FL $189,293.84
NON-CONFORMING BIDDERS
Sulzer Turbo Servies, Houston, Inc., La Porte, TX
Issues/Analysis:
The bid notice was advertised through our usual channels on August 28, 2024, with a bid opening date of September 19, 2024. Bids were solicited from sixteen (16) vendors, and two (2) bids were received.
An award was previously approved on October 9, 2024, to Sulzer Turbo Services, Houston, Inc. However, due to an inability to reach an agreement on contractual language, the bidder is now deemed non-responsible as they are requiring amendments to the form contract to which PWC objects including, among others, provisions to which PWC may not agree as a public entity. As a result, the next lowest bidder, Turbine Technology Services, is now the lowest responsible bidder and is recommended for award.
