Description
This contract is for the supply of bulk liquid sodium hypochlorite to Hernando County, with a piggyback arrangement with the City of Tarpon Springs. The contract has a term of 4 years, with an initial term of 1 year and three additional 1-year renewals. The contract value is estimated to be $250,000. The vendor, Odyssey Manufacturing Co, will provide the sodium hypochlorite at a unit price of $1.20 per gallon. The contract includes provisions for price increases, with the vendor allowed to increase the price by up to 42.2% due to hyper-inflation in the chemical business. The contract also includes requirements for the vendor to provide documentation, including a PPI index, to support any price increases. Some key benefits of this contract include cost savings due to the lack of metal impurities in the sodium hypochlorite, which translates to a longer half-life and reduced decomposition rate. Additionally, the contract includes provisions for environmental benefits, such as reduced bromate, perchlorate, and chlorate levels.
