DAB: December 1, 1994
BY: David L. Harding, Direc~or of per.onnel & Purcha.ing ~
r A~~ached for your con.idera~ion i. Ordinance Ho. 117-94 accep~ing ~he lowe.~ and
I be.~ bid for ~wo dump ~ruck bodies. Al.o a~~ached for your review i. a copy of
i!,..".. ~he bid ~abula~ion fora.
Thi. bid proc... involv.. ~h. purcha.. of r.plac_en~ bodi.. for ~wo duap ~ruck.
aain~ained and op.ra~ed by ~h. Divi.ion of Main~.nance. Bo~h vehicl.. are badly
in need of new dump bodies and, in ~heir pr...n~ .~a~., are non-op.ra~ional.
In accordance wi~h our .~andard prac~ic., S~aff no~ only adverti.ed ~he
opportuni~y ~o bid in a n.w.paper of gen.ral circula~ion, bu~ al.o u.ed Bid He~
~o publicize ~he opportuni~y. Furtheraore, S~aff aailed bid docuaen~. direc~ly
~o vendor. on our es~abli.h.d aailing li.~.
A. reflec~ed in ~he a~~ached bid ~abula~ion, ~he Ci~y received a respon.. froa
~he following vendors:
* Kaff.nbarger Truck Equipaen~
* J&J Truck Bodie.
* Ace Truck Body, Inc.
Please no~e ~ha~ bo~h J&J Truck Bodies and Ace Truck Body submi~~ed bid., while
Kaffenbarger filed a wri~~en "no bid" r..ponse.
A. no~ed in ~he a~~ached bid ~abula~ion, ~he bid .ubmi~~ed by Ace Truck Body,
Inc, in ~he ..oun~ of $18,292.00, is ~he lowes~ bid. However, ~hi. bid con~ain.
several devia~ions when compared ~o ~he Ci~y's bid docuaen~.. Al~hough ~his bid
con~ain. .everal devia~ion., non. are considered by S~aff ~o .ubs~an~iv.ly affec~
~he func~ionali~y or opera~ion of ~he duap body. In S~aff'. judg..en~, ~he aodel
offered in Ace's propo.al i. ..nufac~ur.d ~o provide ~h. service. of ~he cla..
". of equipaen~ needed by ~he Ci~y. Thi. bid al.o provides for a 90-120 day
f
, e.~iaa~ed delivery ~ime a. oppo.ed ~o 60 day. as .pecified wi~hin ~he Ci~y bid
documen~s.
...'
The bid submi~~ed by J&J Truck Bodies, in ~h. ..oun~ of $21,025 .00, con~ain. .0..
level of ambigui~y in ~eras of whe~her ~h. ac~ual bidder is J&J or Somer.e~
Welding. Al~hough ~h. bid was .ubmi~~ed in a J&J .nv.lope, ~h. Bid Propo.al Fora
and all rela~.d affidavi~. are .igned by a r.presen~a~iv. of Som.r..~ Welding and
S~eel, Inc. The rela~ion.hip be~ween ~he ~wo en~i~ies i. no~ explained in ~he
bid docuaen~s. In addi~ion, J&J did no~ iden~ify ~he aodel name and number of
~heir equipa.n~ on ~he Ci~y'. Bid Propo.al Fora, which repre.en~s a ~echnical
devia~ion. Al~hough J&J'. bid con~ain. ~h.se ambigui~i.s/irregulari~i.s, i~ does
guaran~ee delivery wi~hin 60 days.
In ~he final analy.is, S~aff believes ~ha~ acc.p~ing ~he bid from Ace Truck Body,
Inc., in ~he ..oun~ of $18,292.00, would be in ~he be.~ in~ere.~ of ~h. Ci~y and,
~herefore, hereby recommend. ~ha~ .aid bid be accep~ed. Al~hough ~he bid
submi~~ed by Ace con~ains c.rtain devia~ions from ~he equipmen~ .pecifica~ion,
as no~ed previously, S~aff is confiden~ ~ha~ none of ~hese devia~ions would
compromise ~h. func~ionali~y or opera~ional .ffec~ivenes. of ~he dump body. (I~
.hould be emphasized ~ha~ ~he Ci~y'. bid docuaen~. clearly communica~. ~ha~ ~he
in~en~ of ~he Ci~y is no~ ~o exclude any vendor froa participa~ion in ~he bid
process, bu~ ra~her ~o allow equipaen~ which is aanufac~ured ~o provide ~he
