A .... ard of cont.r..act to A!!I_~~rican....All..iance Always Availablll! .. Inc._, DBA
Drain Patrol
M~~ers of the Council:
Rgport in Brief:
This rep.crt re.commends that the council approve the attached
contract ~ith American Alliance Always Available l Inc~, DBA Drain
Patrol in an amount not to exceed $125,000 for sewer lateral
maintenance service, on a reqular basis, and authorize the Mayor to
execute such contract. FUnds for this specific purpose have been
included in the Department cf Utilitie~ budget for FY 1993-94.
Sewer lateral maintenance 'Was first contracted in the second half
of FY 1989-90 on an experimental basis. As a result of the success
of the experiment, th~ program was extended, and three-year
contracts ~e~e executed in 1990 with two contractors. For Fiscal
Year 199::-93, the city rene-wo'ed the contract with only one
contz;actor rather than splitting the contract between the two,
Experience has proven that a single contractor, carefully chosen.
can manage the workload. Dispatching se .... ·er calls to only one
contractor has significantly si!:lplified such tasks as re'J"ie:wing
billing, evaluating claims tha.t result from se"'er backup:;, and
providing ac~ountability for ser,ices performed while at the
customsrs' residence. The program has continued to be a success,
allowing the Utilities Department 'to maintain a high level of
service, and .... ithout degrading Field Service response times or
decreasing public safety~
An Invitation for Bids ..,as issued on May 11 ~ 1993; and after a
review of the bids was submitted, and subject to Council approval
of tt.e budget. staff has selected American Alliance Al .... ajrs
Available, Inc., DBA Drain Patrol~ The selection was based upon a
careful review of bide for bo~h cost and service crIteria. staff
has had discussions with. and has visited the premises of, Ame=iean
All .. nee Always Available, Inc., DBA Drain Patrol and is satisfied
that this cont:ractor can provide the level of service the. City
