Title
Athletics Equipment Replacement - Co-Op Equipment Purchase
History
The Athletics Division utilizes New Holland Tractors to perform a variety of maintenance duties.
Staff have identified one tractor that needs replacement. The tractor is 26 years old with 2,600 hours of use. The Tractor was evaluated by the Public Works Vehicle and Equipment division and has been deemed to need replacement.
Staff propose replacing the Holland tractor with a Kubota L3902HST tractor. The Kubota is powered by a Tier 4 Final diesel engine (Model D1803CRE4LB4) with common rail direct injection, a diesel particulate filter, and electronic throttle, delivering 36.3 net engine horsepower and 30.6 PTO horsepower at 2700 rpm. It features an open-center, gear-type hydraulic system with a tandem pump providing 10.1 total gpm, along with a Category 1 3-point hitch capable of lifting up to 1,998 lbs. at the lift point. The hydrostatic drive includes three speed ranges, 4WD with power steering, and multiple wet disc brakes for reliable performance. Operator controls include a tachometer, fuel and temperature gauges, and an LCD display for hours and warnings. The unit has an 11/1 -gallon fuel tank and compact dimensions, measuring 91.7 inches in height and 116.3 inches in length with ROPS. Additional features include a 540 RPM rear PTO, foldable ROPS with seatbelt, safety interlocks, ergonomic operator station with adjustable suspension seat, and high-flotation turf tires for stability and minimal ground impact.
The Kubota L3902HST Tractor includes a Basic 2-year, 1500-hour Limited warranty and a 3-year, 2000-hour limited powertrain warranty.
Staff have obtained a quote (attached) from Alta Equipment Company of Orland Park, Illinois. Alta is the local authorized Kubota distributor using Sourcewell Contract #082923-KBA (see attached Sole Source form).
Staff seek to purchase one Kubota L3902HST Tractor for the total purchase price of $29,983.57.
Financial Impact
Funds for the equipment are budgeted in 2009-460180 for these purchases.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve participation in joint purchasing cooperative Sourcewell Contract #082923-KBA from Alta Equipment Company in Orland Park, IL for the purchase of one Kubota L3902HST Tractor for the total not to exceed contract price of $29,983.57;
