These vehicles are used daily in the collection of solid waste from commercial clients. The age of these trucks range from eight (8)-to ten (10) years and have an average of 105,000 miles per truck. Notices inviting bids for chassis, Bid No. 95-20, and for bodies, Bid No. 95-21, were published locally and bid packages were mailed to 16 and 23 vendors respectively. As advertised, sealed bids were opened on February 28, 1995. The results of the acceptable bids from this process are summarized below for Council's review: TRUCK CHASSIS UNIT TOTAL VENDOR LOCATION BID PRICE BID PRICE Inland Empire White/GMC Riverside $ 84,018.06 $ 252,054.18 South Coast Peterbilt Pico Rivera $ 84,300.33 $ 252,901.00 Carmenita Truck Center Santa Fe Springs $ 91,978.63 $ 275,935.90 The bid received from Inland Empire White/GMC in Riverside, $252,054.18, for three (3) truck chassis is the apparent low bid and meets the required specifications and the needs of the department. REFUSE COLLECTION BODY UNIT TOTAL VENDOR LOCATION BID PRICE BID PRICE American Vehicles Pomona $ 40,670.11 $ 122,010.34 Amrep Inc. Ontario $ 40,819.29 $ 122,457.88 Body Works Santa Fe Springs $ 49,446.47 $ 148,339.43 The bid received from Amrep Inc. in Ontario, $122,457.88, best meets the technical and long term financial requirements of the Department and the specifications. The low bid from American Vehicle would require additional inventory due to a change in body manufacturer. A decrease in productivity would also result due to unfamiliarity with the new product and additional time would be lost while transporting vehicles to Pomona rather than Ontario for warranty and special repair work. Based on this evaluation, staff is recommending that the bids from Inland Empire White/GMC and Amrep Inc. be accepted. The Finance Department will solicit financing packages for the lease purchase of three (3) trucks and bodies upon Council's approval. A Council Report recommending a contract for financing will follow. ;XZ4 -� Pat Malloy Barbara Pachon Director of Public Services Director of Finance
