Approval of and authorization to purchase one (1) Ford F-350 4X4 crew cab pickup from Vance Country Ford pursuant to the Oklahoma State purchasing contract SW0035 for the Police Department
End
Background:
Funds have been approved for the purchase of one (1) new F-350 4x4 pickup for the Broken Arrow Police Department. This vehicle will be utilized as a tow vehicle for various trailers and equipment within the department. This acquisition is identified under Project Number 2730050 in the Vehicle Replacement Fund 329 Portion of the FY2027 budget with $74,000 allocated for the purchase of a Ford F350 Truck.
To maximize resources and achieve cost efficiencies, staff recommends procuring the vehicle through the Oklahoma Statewide Contract SW0035. This contract allows municipal agencies across Oklahoma to purchase vehicles at pre-negotiated state contract pricing, eliminating the need for a separate bid process while providing substantial cost and administrative savings. Utilizing State Contract SW0035 ensures compliance with budgetary constraints while securing a durable, high-quality asset for the Utilities Department.
Section 2-27(b)(5) of the Broken Arrow Code of Ordinances provides an exception to the competitive bidding process for supplies, materials, equipment, or contractual services purchased at a price not exceeding that set by the state purchasing agency, any other state agency authorized to regulate prices, or from purchasing consortiums.
In addition, Section V.d of the Broken Arrow Purchasing Manual authorizes purchases from “the state contract or other purchasing consortiums,” noting that such purchases eliminate the need for formal competitive bidding. State contract pricing qualifies under both the Code of Ordinances and the Purchasing Manual.
Following a review of available options, staff recommends approval to purchase one (1) F-350 4x4 crew cab pickup from Vance Country Ford in the amount of $55,000.00 through State Contract SW0035.
Cost: $55,000.00
