Item - 2025.GG26.21

The General Government Committee recommend that:

1. City Council receive the report (November 24, 2025) from the General Manager, Toronto Water, and the Chief Procurement, for information.

The purpose of this report is to advise Toronto City Council, pursuant to Chapter 195 of the Toronto Municipal Code, Procurement, Section 195-7.5.B, of a non-competitive contract with Alberici Constructors Ltd., for the emergency roof replacement at the Humber Treatment Plant Operations and Control Centre, for  a total value of $1,741,076, net of all taxes and charges ($1,771,719 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries).

The issuance of this non-competitive contract was a matter of extreme urgency, as during construction, demolition revealed multiple cracks and leaks in the existing roof. Immediate action was required to protect staff health and safety, ensure uninterrupted wastewater treatment operations, limit impacts to existing contract warranties and mitigate the risk of costly future repairs.

Non-competitive procurements may be undertaken where both the proposed procurement and supplier can be justified in good faith based on an exception set out in Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 195, Procurement. This procurement proceeded under the exception code related to Emergency where the goods or services are required as a result of an emergency which would not reasonably permit the solicitation of competitive submissions and the City has determined in good faith that both the proposed procurement and the selected supplier, along with the terms and conditions of the contract are beneficial to the City (Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 195, Procurement, Section 7.1.G.).
