BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On April 6, 2016, the City Council approved specifications and
authorized the advertisement of bids to procure distribution cable.
The Lodi Electric Utility advertised bids on December 24 and 28, 2016 to purchase 16,500 feet of
750 kcmil cable and 10,000 feet of 1/0 Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulated cable. On
January 11, 2017, bids were opened with four suppliers submitting proposals with the following results:

Staff reviewed the proposals and deemed that General Cable Industries is the lowest responsive bidder
compliant with the approved specifications for the 750 kcmil cable and The Okonite Company is the
lowest responsive bidder compliant with the approved specifications for the 1/0 EPR insulated cable.
Due to the high speed manufacturing process of the cable, it is an industry practice to allow a tolerance
of +10% on the length of cable produced and shipped at the cost per feet as specified in the bid.
FISCAL IMPACT: Procurement cost is $103,373.
