OBJECTIVE

To secure City Council authorization to purchase two (2) new Public Works Department pick up trucks from National Auto Fleet Group through the Sourcewell competitive bid program, Contract #091521-NAF.

BACKGROUND

The Public Works Department has two (2) pick up trucks that currently meet the City’s guidelines for replacement and were approved through the FY 22/23 budget process. The trucks are replacing a 2008 Chevy Colorado truck, VIN# 1GCCS199788216391, with 57,543 miles from the Building Services Department, and a 2012 Chevy Malibu, VIN# 1G1ZB5E06CF163043 with 81,088 miles from the Engineering Division. Experience has shown that the City’s buying power is enhanced through joining with other public agencies to purchase fleet vehicles and equipment.

DISCUSSION

Sourcewell nationally solicits, evaluates and awards contracts through a competitive bid process. As a member of Sourcewell, the City is able to utilize bid awards for equipment purchases. Staff recommends piggybacking on the results of a recent Sourcewell competitive bid program, Contract #091521-NAF. The results deemed National Auto Fleet Group as the lowest responsive bid.
