Explanation
* These contracts provide for the application of specialized protective coating systems on infrastructure within Charlotte Water's service area.
* Examples of infrastructure included in the scope of this project are concrete water storage tanks, steel rake arms and bridges above tanks, pipes, motors, blowers, and valves found in treatment facilities and ground vaults throughout the water and sanitary sewer systems.
* This infrastructure requires routine maintenance, part of which are specialized protective coating systems on metal, fiberglass, plastic, and concrete structures, which require a technically certified staff. Protective coating, properly applied, maintains the structural integrity of the assets and extends their useful life.
* On May 10, 2018, the City issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ); three proposals were received.
* Carolina Management Team, LLC and Superior Industrial Maintenance Company, Inc. were determined to be the best qualified firms to meet the City's needs on the basis of demonstrated competence and qualification of professional services in response to the RFQ requirements.
* Estimated annual contract expenditures are $600,000 over the three year term.
