STAFF REPORT
BACKGROUND
Since the Fleet Division has estimated the annual requirement for automotive, truck, and heavy
equipment tires and tubes tires to be over $25,000, formal bids were requested. Because it is
not possible to predict the exact quantity and combination of tires that will be needed by the City
throughout the year, vendors were asked to bid on a listing of tires and quantities based on
previous year's usage.
Notices inviting bids for the annual purchase of tires, tubes, and recapped tires were sent to ten
(10) vendors (Bid #F-98-02). Six sealed bids were opened and accepted on May 7,1997. The
results are as follows:
VENDOR
Viking Tire
Daniel's Tire Service
Berlin Tire Centers
Parkhouse Tire Inc.
"Y" Tire Sales
Ramona Tire Inc.
LOCATION
San Bernardino
Santa Fe Springs
Ontario

183,973.99
188,505.00

RECOMMENDATION
The cost and technical specifications of all bids were reviewed. The low bid of Viking Tires
was found to be acceptable and met or exceeded all items called for in the specifications.
It is recommended that the Mayor and Common Council authorize the Purchasing Manager to
issue an Annual Purchase order for the amount of $181,458.55 to Viking Tire for the purchase
of automotive, truck and equipment tires and tubes.
