Item Description:

title

Acceptance of bid and consideration of award of contract to Victor L Phillips, Co. for the replacement of a Case 590SN Backhoe for the Public Works Department. Body

________________________________________________________________________________

Summary:  Sourcewell, formerly known as NJPA, competitively issued a bid and awarded a cooperative contract to Victor L Phillips for the purchase of backhoes and loaders.  A quote based on Sourcewell contract 032515-CNH was solicited from Victor L Phillips, Co.

This proposed unit will replace a 2009 Case 580 Super M Plus used by Public Works Stormwater Division. The newer machines have a greater digging depth with the hoe and allow the division to do the work with the machine. This allows the division to keep crew members out of creek channels during high water debris removal.

Staff recommends award of contract to Victor L Phillips, Co.

No Olathe vendors supply this type of equipment.

The backhoe is being replaced as part of the regular vehicle replacement process and is fully amortized. The vehicle has paid $170,206 through lease fees into the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund.

Financial Impact:

$111,470.83 to be paid from the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund.
