INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM

To:Scott C. Stiles

From:William E. Murray
Dept.:City Manager 

Dept.: Public Works 
Subject:

Authorize the  issuance of a purchase order to Wondries Fleet Group for the purchase of nine (9) police vehicles.  (Cost: $336,944.97) (Action Item)

Date:8/13/2019
OBJECTIVE

To secure City Council authorization to purchase nine (9) new police patrol vehicles from Wondries Fleet Group through the Sourcewell competitive bid process, Contract #120716.

BACKGROUND

The Police Department has several patrol vehicles that will meet the City’s guidelines for replacement in Fiscal Year 2019-20. Experience has shown that the City’s buying power is enhanced through joining with other public agencies to purchase police fleet vehicles.

DISCUSSION

Efforts to obtain a quote from a local Ford dealer were unsuccessful, as there are no Ford dealers within the city limits. City staff recommends piggybacking on the results of a recent Sourcewell competitive bid program for police patrol vehicles. The results of this bid process deemed Wondries Fleet group as the lowest responsive bid.

               

Wondries Fleet Group                                         $37,438.33 each*

 

 

* This price includes all applicable tax and destination charges.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The financial impact is $336,944.97 to the Fleet Management Fund. There is no impact to the General Fund. The surplus vehicles will be sold at public auction.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that City Council:

 

  • Authorize the Finance Director to issue a purchase order in the amount of $336,944.97 to Wondries Fleet Group for the purchase of nine (9) new police vehicles.
