RR DIRECT Proposal.pdf
Rationale: Via Resolution 15.14 on September 16, 2020 the Board awarded a $164,998.50 PO to Restroom Direct for the purchase of 150 hands free bottle filling stations is response to COVID 19 requirements to change most of the Districts drinking water fountains. Bids were not required but Purchasing issued an RFQ garnering nine proposals to get the best price and very importantly, delivery date.

It was later determined that all existing fountains had to be replaced and, to meet current requirements, additional units will need to be installed over the summer. Therefore, another 80 units were ordered at the price and delivery timing as bid at a cost of $87,999.20 increasing the PO to $252,997.70.
To date, all 204 existing fountains have been replaced and are in service.
