Description

The City of Bakersfield is establishing an on‑call, as‑needed contract to supply Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) polymer for its Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3. Suppliers must first pre‑qualify their polymer through laboratory jar testing and a five‑day on‑site DAF trial; only those meeting performance thresholds may submit a price proposal. The contract is a one‑year term, renewable up to three additional one‑year periods, with deliveries made to a 6,650‑gallon tank during standard business hours. • Supply bulk DAF polymer on an as‑needed basis, delivering to a 6,650 gal tank at WWTP 3. • Complete pre‑qualification trials (jar test + 5‑day DAF trial) at the City’s expense and meet ≥ 5 % TWAS solids and ≥ 95 % removal efficiency. • Provide a single $/lb price (all‑inclusive) and maintain required insurance, indemnity, and compliance with California public‑work regulations.

Budget estimate

$300,000 – $1,200,000

No contract dollar amount is disclosed. Based on typical DAF polymer consumption for a plant handling ~28,000 lb/day of WAS solids, annual polymer usage could range from 80,000 lb to 150,000 lb. Assuming a market price of $5–$8 per pound, the annual cost would be roughly $400,000–$1,200,000. With a one‑year initial term (potentially up to four years), the total contract value could fall between $400,000 and $4,800,000. Therefore a reasonable estimate for a single‑year award is $300,000–$1,200,000, reflecting variability in usage rates and negotiated pricing.
