Title
Dump Body and Snow Removal Equipment Package Purchase and Installation - NJPA Contract Quote
History
Earlier this year the Village Board approved the purchase of a replacement tandem truck chassis which reached the end of its useful life for Public Works. The installation of a dump body, front snow plow, wing plow, hydraulic system and salt spreader with a pre-wet system is coordinated through a separate vendor. This truck is a primary unit used in all snow removal efforts and will be utilized for other maintenance needs throughout the year as necessary. Additionally, this truck package includes the Village’s Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system and standardized spreader controls that enables staff to more accurately track the truck’s salt and liquid use.
The Village is a member of the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) purchasing cooperative that provides competitive pricing for equipment purchases. As a member of NJPA, the Village is eligible to purchase this equipment package through the cooperative which includes equipment installation and calibration once installed on the previously purchased 2018 International Workstar 7500 6X4 chassis cab.
Henderson Truck Equipment of Huntley, Illinois, as the recipient of NJPA contract # 080114-HPI, submitted a cost quote in the amount of $103,740.00 for this equipment purchase and installation. Staff has reviewed the quote and recommends purchasing the package for installation on the previously purchased chassis.
This item is going to directly to the Board of Trustees.
Financial Impact
There is sufficient funding for the purchase and installation of equipment in account 010-5006-470200.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve accepting the NJPA contract quote from Henderson Truck Equipment of Huntley, Illinois for the purchase and installation of a Dump Body and Snow Removal Equipment Package in an amount not to exceed $103,740.00.
