Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Finance and Management, on behalf of the Director of Public Service, to associate all General Budget Reservations resulting from this ordinance to pay for an increase in price for three (3) Peterbilt 348/ Galbreath Holtz Roll-off Hoist Trucks. This purchase was awarded through RFQ017103, and has been approved by the Division of Fleet Management.
The purchase of these trucks was originally authorized by Ordinance 0488-2021, and awarded to ESEC Corporation dba Columbus Peterbilt, on the original purchase order (PO267486) confirmed April 8, 2021. However, effective October 30, 2021, ESEC Corporation dba Columbus Peterbilt was acquired by Ohio Machinery Co. dba Ohio Peterbilt (FID 34-0672363), and all existing orders for ESEC Corporation were to be transferred to Ohio Machinery Co. dba Ohio Peterbilt (Ordinance 2634-2021). PO267486 was cancelled, and a new encumbrance was established (ACPR002599).
During the elapsed time between the initial order, and the upcoming delivery, surcharges in the amount of $194,375.70 have been applied to the original purchase price of $611,856.30 executed on PO267486, due to the increase of production costs associated with supply chain demands during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Department of Public Service, and the Division of Refuse collection have approved the increase in price. The Purchasing Department will approve the surcharge increase contingent upon documentation provided by the vendor prior to the approval of this legislation.
Ohio Machinery Co. dba Ohio Peterbilt is not debarred according to the Excluded Party Listing System of the Federal Government or prohibited from being awarded a contract according to the Auditor of State Unresolved Findings for Recovery Certified Search.
