Reason for Recommendation
At the request of Community Development Agency, Transportation Division, the Procurement and Contracts Division issued an Invitation to Bid for Equipment / Truck Tires, Tubes, and Related Products and Services.
(16) Invitation to Bid letters were mailed, nine (9) to local vendors. Two qualified responses were received, one from a local vendor. Attached is the evaluation spreadsheet for your review.
This item was originally set to be heard by the Board of Supervisors on the May 20, 2014 agenda. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the entire agenda was continued to June 10th, as such this item was not approved. The Purchasing Agent awarded this bid and issued two blanket purchase orders in order to avoid a disruption in services. BP20140967 was issued for the West Slope in the amount of $62,000.00 and BP20140968 was issued for the East Slope in the amount of $30,000.00, both to the low qualified bidder, Sierra Nevada Tire and Wheel of Placerville, CA.
Issuing two (2) separate BP's is necessary due to the number of items (200+) in each Category. It will be much easier and more efficient for Department staff to work with a Blanket Purchase order for each slope.
Action to be taken following Board approval
Following Board approval, the Procurement and Contracts division will increase the two blanket purchase orders; BP20140968 for the East Slope items in the amount of $80,000.00 and BP20140968 for the West Slope items in the amount of $135,000.00, both to Sierra Nevada Tire and Wheel of Placerville, CA.
