Title
Dump Body and Snow Removal Equipment Package Installation - Purchase
History
The Public Works 2017 Fiscal Year Budget has a rollover Board approved line item in the amount of $165,474.00 for the installation of a dump body, snow plow, hydraulic system and salt spreader with prewet system. The equipment package will be installed on two (2) previously purchased single truck chassis. These trucks are primary units used in all snow removal efforts and are utilized for other maintenance needs throughout the year as necessary. Additionally, these truck packages include the Villages AVL system and standardized spreader controls enhancing staffs ability in salt and liquid data tracking.
The Village is a member of the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), a purchasing cooperative that provides competitive pricing for equipment purchases. As a member of NJPA, we are eligible to purchase the equipment packages through the cooperative including installation and calibration on the two 2017 International Workstar 7400 chassis cabs.
Henderson Truck Equipment of Huntley, Illinois, has the NJPA contract # 080114-HPI and has submitted a cost quote in the amount of $144,102.00. Staff has reviewed the quote and recommends purchasing the package for installation on the two previously purchased chassis’.
On March 6, 2017 this item was reviewed by the Public Works Committee and recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
There is sufficient rollover funding for the equipment packages in 010-5006-470200.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve accepting the proposal from Henderson Truck Equipment of Huntley, Illinois for the purchase and installation of two (2) Dump Body and Snow Removal Equipment Packages in an amount not to exceed $144,102.00.
