GOVERNMENT CODE 484308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency (PWA) Water Resources Division oversees the operations and maintenance of the City's water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is comprised of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations, 10 reservoirs, four pressure regulating stations, and roughly 45,500 metered service connections. The sanitary sewer system includes more than 400 miles of sanitary sewer main, 8,500 manholes, approximately 48,500 sewer laterals, and two sewer list stations. To support the operations and maintenance of these systems, City staff requires a wide range of waterworks materials, supplies, and fittings. Given the challenges of aging infrastructure, staff proactively procures and maintains an inventory of essential supplies at the City's Corporate Yard to support both routine maintenance and emergency repair efforts. This readiness helps minimize service disruptions and ensures timely response to infrastructure issues. The proposed contracts allow staff to source waterworks fitting and supplies from multiple local vendors ensuring access to products needed at competitive prices. Public Works Water Division Waterworks Fittings and Supplies October 7, 2025 Page 2 An Invitation for Bids (IFB) No. 25-010 was issued on July 25, 2025, on the City's online bid management and publication system, PlanetBids. A summary of vendor participation and results is as follows: 276 Vendors notified 20 Santa Ana vendors notified 22 Vendors downloaded the bid packet 8 Bids received 2 Bids received from Santa Ana vendors Bids were opened on August 26, 2025, and evaluated (Exhibit 1). Eight bids were submitted by the IFB deadline and all were determined to be responsive to the specifications and met City's requirements. Although Yardley-Orgill Co., Inc. dba YO Fire appeared to be the second lowest bid, they in fact were unable to provide a significant number of items listed on the IFB. Therefore, staff recommends awarding aggregate purchase contracts to bids submitted by Ferguson Enterprises, Orange County WinWater, and S&J Supply Company, Inc. to provide waterworks fittings and supplies. These vendors provided the most comprehensive responses and demonstrated ample product availability at competitive pricing. Aggregate purchase contracts will ensure flexibility, competitive pricing, and availability of high-quality products for field operations.
