Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to enter into a purchase order with Ace Truck Body, Inc. for the purchase of an Eleven Foot Dump Body with Attachments (snow plow/salt spreader) for the Division of Power and Water (Water). The dump body with attachments will be installed on a diesel powered, heavy duty one ton cab and chassis in the Watershed Management section.

The Purchasing Office advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329.06 (Solicitation SA003300). Fourteen (14) vendors (14 MAJ) were solicited and four (4) bids (4 MAJ) were received and opened on July 9, 2009. America's Body Company was the apparent low bid of $27,190.00. They, however, did not meet the bid specifications. The second lowest bid received from Ace Truck Body, Inc. in the amount of $27,671.00, met specifications and an award is recommended as the lowest responsive, responsible, and best bidder. The bid tabulation is attached for your review. The dump truck that this body is to be installed on has been approved by Fleet Management.
