Approval of and authorization to amend Purchase Order 22501126 for the purchase of one (1) Caterpillar C4.4 GCABR 80kW stationary generator from Warren CAT pursuant to the Sourcewell Purchasing Cooperative
End
Background:
The City of Broken Arrow plans to replace the current natural gas-powered Generac generator at Tiger Hill, which is 20 years old and in need of an engine replacement, with a new Caterpillar C7.1 PGAM diesel-powered emergency back-up generator which this amendment request a change to C4.4 GCABR 80kW. After further review, it was identified that the originally quoted 150kW generator did not support the required Single-Phase Delta configuration, and as such, Purchase Order 22501126 will be amended.
The key changes to the purchase are as follows:
1. 80kW Single-Phase 120/240 configuration.
2. Updated Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS).
3. Tank size increased to a 72-hour capacity.
The replacement generator includes all necessary startup and commissioning services, as well as the updated configuration to meet the City's requirements. This amendment is still covered under Sourcewell Contract #092222-CAT, which provides competitive pricing and ensures compliance with procurement regulations.
The Maintenance Services department supports using the Sourcewell Purchasing Cooperative as it offers significant savings in both time and costs compared to the traditional bid process. The Fleet Department recommends proceeding with this amended purchase under the existing Sourcewell contract.
