Title
Precor Queenax Training and Storage System Purchase
History
The Recreation Department is looking to purchase the Queenax Bridge Format X1 500 system for the Sportsplex. This is a free standing system that will provide functional and suspended body, weight training areas while preserving open floor space for other activities. This would be an extra piece to the equipment that is currently used. Staff feels this system would stand out and be an enhancement to the Fitness Center. The Queenax system may help sell the facility during tours due to the popularity of the exercises participants can do on this piece. This will be located behind the Stepmills against the west wall. Integrated storage is built into the system, which will help keep small weight equipment and training accessories organized and off the floor.
The Queenax Bridge Format is a fun and unique training system that has the flexibility to be utilized in many ways. Members will be able to use this training equipment on their own or with a personal trainer. The equipment can be used for circuit training, individual exercises performed using a single station, and paid exercise classes can be developed using the system. Five stations can be used on this system at the same time.
The Finance department has indicated that Precor was awarded the contract from National Joint Powers Alliance Cooperative for Healthcare, Fitness & Medical Related Solutions. NJPA referred staff to our local sales representative as Precor is the sole source provider of this product and the Village is only allowed to purchase from the sales representative that covers our area. Staff received NJPA co-op pricing and a quote from our local Precor representative (see attached quotes). The local sales representative from Precor was able to quote a price of $16,155.00 which is $1870.00 less than the $18,025.00 original co-op price.
This unit would include Superfunctional (x3), Strong (x2), Horizontal Shelf ( x2), Mobile Parallels ( x1), Battle Rope (x1), Pull up & Rack 500 (x1), Plyometric Platform ( x1), Black Box, Suspension Abs Kit ( x1), Up Strength (x1), Handle extension (x3).
On April 17, 2017, this item was reviewed and approved by the Parks and Recreation Committee, recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
The amount budgeted in FY2017 in account 283-4007-460180 for this purchase is $20,000.00. The proposed purchase would include all the equipment (attached) for the price of $16,155.00, including Freight, Fuel and Installation.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the purchase of Queenax X1 500 Bridge at the total cost of $16,155.00.
