| | | | | | | | OBJECTIVE
To secure City Council authorization to purchase two (2) new utility trucks from National Auto Fleet Group through the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) competitive bid program, Contract #120716. |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department has two (2) utility trucks that currently meet the City's guidelines for replacement. The replacements were approved through the Fiscal Year 2017-18 budget process. Experience has shown that the City's buying power is enhanced through joining with other public agencies to purchase fleet vehicles and equipment. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
The NJPA nationally solicits, evaluates and awards contracts through the competitive bid process. As a member of NJPA, the City is able to utilize bid awards for equipment purchases. Staff recommends piggybacking on the results of a recent NJPA competitive bid program, Contract #120716. The results deemed National Auto Fleet Group as the lowest responsive bidder.
