Approval of and authorization to purchase four (4) 2018 Ford Taurus Sedans from Bill Knight Ford as bid, pursuant to the Oklahoma statewide vehicle contract for the Police Department

End

Background:

The State of Oklahoma currently has three vendors with competitive bids for 2018 Sedans. Law enforcement agencies throughout the State of Oklahoma are able to purchase vehicles at the state contract price, which is advantageous to the political subdivisions by allowing them to make purchases at a lower price.  The Police department is seeking to purchase four (4) Sedans from the state bid contract.

 

All vendor bids included identical 3yr/36k bumper to bumper and drive train warranties.  With options desired, Bob Hurley Ford submitted the lowest state bid price of $20,995.00 for the Ford Taurus.  The additional cost of requested options is reflected in the attached bid tabulation. 

 

Funds have been appropriated and are available in the Public Safety Sales Tax Fund in the amount of $84,000.00 for the purchase of police vehicles.

 

Staff recommends approval of State Contract purchase with Bill Knight Ford.

Cost:                                                                $83,980.00
