Award the most advantageous bid to Rush Truck Center for the purchase of one (1) dump truck for the Streets and Stormwater Department
End
Background:
The Streets and Stormwater Department has requested and sought bids for one (1) dump truck for the Streets Division. The Purchasing Department solicited bids from ten (10) vendors and six (6) bids were received. Four (4) bids meet specifications, with Rush Truck Center being second lowest bid, with only a $33.00 difference. The Streets and Stormwater Department believes Rush Truck Center’s bid to be the most advantageous bid due to one extra year of warranty on the transmission, 150 additional pounds of torque and the engine type has received a good review from fleet maintenance.
Funds are available in the Sales Tax Capital Improvement (STCI) Fund in the amount of $135,000. (Project 195311, Account No.030-5310-431-70.04)
Staff recommends awarding the bid to the second lowest bidder, Rush Truck Center, due to above mentioned factors.
