Cooperative Purchase Agreement: Replacement Street Sweeper File ID: 2022-02193
Location: Citywide
Recommendation: Pass a Motion: 1) approving the use of the Sourcewell cooperative purchase agreement with Global Environmental Products, Inc. (Contract No. 093021-GEP) for the purchase of one replacement street sweeper not to exceed $387,013; and 2) authorizing the City Manager or the City Manager’s designee to execute the purchase specified above.

Additional Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The Department of Public Works, Fleet Management Division, has a customer requirement to purchase one replacement street sweeper for the Department of Public Works, Recycling and Solid Waste Division. The street sweeper will be used to remove dirt and debris from City roads.

Policy Considerations: The recommendations in this report are in accordance with City Code Chapter 3.56.

Economic Impacts: None.

Environmental Considerations:

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): No environmental review is necessary

File ID: 2022-02193 1/10/2023 Consent Item 24.
because the recommendations in this report involve the purchase of vehicles and are not considered to be a project in accordance with Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA guidelines.

Sustainability: The recommended purchases are consistent with the Fleet Sustainability Policy adopted by City Council on December 12, 2017 (Resolution No. 2017-0478).

Commission/Committee Action: None.

Rationale for Recommendation: After reviewing the available purchase options, the Fleet Management Division has determined that the Sourcewell cooperative purchase agreement with Global Environmental Products, Inc. represents the most advantageous purchasing strategy. The contract was competitively bid nationally, and Sourcewell receives greater discounts from the manufacturer due to a higher purchase volume than the City would receive if issuing its own bid.

In an ongoing effort to maximize cost savings and staff resources, many government agencies share contracting efforts through cooperative purchasing. This procurement method increases pricing competitiveness and lowers operating costs through volume buying. When comparing the administrative costs of procurement, staff considers product research, source selection, specifications, advertising, staff reports, awarding, protest, and administration of the contract.

The City has used both regional and national cooperative purchase agreements to complement its own contracting initiatives. Cooperative purchasing enables City departments to evaluate a broader range of contracting opportunities and to share resources with other jurisdictions. Cooperative purchasing also leverages internal and external resources to maximize cost savings opportunities for the City.

Financial Considerations: The recommended purchase, in a total amount not to exceed $387,013 will be made from the Department of Public Works Fiscal Year (FY) 2022/23 operating budget (Fleet Fund, Fund 6501) and will be charged to the Department of Public Works Recycling and Solid Waste Fleet Project (I06147000, Fund 6007). Sufficient funding exists in the Department of Public Works FY2022/23 operating budget and the Public Works Fleet Project (I06147000) to support the recommended purchase.

Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Global Environmental Products, Inc. is not an LBE. The minimum LBE participation requirement is waived for the City’s use of cooperative purchase agreements that have been competitively bid, evaluated, and awarded by other governmental agencies that may or may not have similar LBE programs.

B. WARRANTY. Supplier warrants that all Equipment, Products, and Services furnished are free from liens and encumbrances, and are free from defects in design, materials, and workmanship.

3. PRICING

All Equipment, Products, or Services under this Contract will be priced at or below the price stated in Supplier’s Proposal.

4. PRODUCT AND PRICING CHANGE REQUESTS

Related Equipment, Accessories, and Supplies

Rev. 3/2021 Sourcewell RFP #093021
Street Sweepers and Specialty Sweepers, with
Related Equipment, Accessories, and Supplies

Generally, the solutions for Participating Entities are turn-key solutions, providing a combination of equipment, products and services, delivery, and installation to a properly operating status. However, equipment or products only solutions may be appropriate for situations where Participating Entities possess the ability, either in-house or through local third- party contractors, to properly install and bring to operation the equipment or products being proposed.

Sourcewell prefers suppliers that provide a sole source of responsibility for the equipment, products, and services provided under a resulting contract. If proposer is including the equipment, products, and services of its subsidiary entities, the proposer must also identify all included subsidiaries in its proposal. If proposer requires the use of distributors, dealers, resellers, or subcontractors to provide the equipment, products, or services, the proposal must address how the equipment, products or services will be provided to Participating Entities, and describe the network of distributors, dealers, resellers, and/or subcontractors that will be available to serve Participating Entities under a resulting contract.

Sourcewell desires the broadest possible selection of equipment, products, and services being proposed over the largest possible geographic area and to the largest possible cross-section of Sourcewell current and future Participating Entities.

C. REQUIREMENTS

It is expected that proposers have knowledge of all applicable industry standards, laws, and regulations and possess an ability to market and distribute the equipment, products, or services to Participating Entities.

1. Safety Requirements. All items proposed must comply with current applicable safety or regulatory standards or codes.

2. Deviation from Industry Standard. Deviations from industry standards must be identified with an explanation of how the equipment, products, and services will provide equivalent function, coverage, performance, and/or related services.

3. New Equipment and Products. Proposed equipment and products must be for new, current model; however, proposer may offer certain close-out equipment or products if it is specifically noted in the Pricing proposal.

4. Delivered and operational. Unless clearly noted in the proposal, equipment and products must be delivered to the Participating Entity as operational.

5. Warranty. All equipment, products, supplies, and services must be covered by a warranty that is the industry standard or better.

Sourcewell anticipates that the term of any resulting contract(s) will be four years, with an optional one year extension that may be offered based on the best interests of Sourcewell and its Participating Entities.

E. ESTIMATED CONTRACT VALUE AND USAGE

Based on past volume of similar contracts, the estimated annual value of all transactions from contracts resulting from this RFP are anticipated to be USD $48 Million; therefore, proposers are expected to propose volume pricing. Sourcewell anticipates considerable activity under the contract(s) awarded from this RFP; however, sales and sales volume from any resulting contract are not guaranteed.

F. MARKETING PLAN

4. A proposer’s documented negative past performance with Sourcewell or its Participating Entities occurring under a previously awarded Sourcewell contract may be considered in the evaluation of a proposal.

Street Sweepers and Specialty Sweepers, with
Related Equipment, Accessories, and Supplies

1. Either Line-Item Pricing or Percentage Discount from Catalog Pricing, or a combination of these:
a. Line-item Pricing is pricing based on each individual product or services. Each line must indicate the proposer’s published “List Price,” as well as the “Contract Price.” b. Percentage Discount from Catalog or Category is based on a percentage discount from a catalog or list price, defined as a published Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the products or services.

Proposers will be responsible for providing and maintaining current published MSRP with Sourcewell, and this pricing must be included in its proposal and provided throughout the term of any Contract resulting from this RFP.

2. The proposer’s not to exceed price. A not to exceed price is the highest price for which equipment, products, or services may be billed to a Participating Entity . However, it is permissible for suppliers to sell at a price that is lower than the contracted price.

Proposers are expected to pay to Sourcewell an administrative fee in exchange for Sourcewell facilitating the resulting contracts. The administrative fee is normally calculated as a percentage of the total sales to Participating Entities for all contracted equipment, products, or services made during a calendar quarter, and is typically one percent (1%) to two percent (2%). In some categories, a flat fee may be an acceptable alternative.

IV. CONTRACT

Proposers awarded a contract will be required to execute a contract with Sourcewell (see attached template). Only those modifications the proposer indicates in its proposal will be available for discussion. Much of the language in the Contract reflects Minnesota legal requirements and cannot be altered. Numerous and/or onerous exceptions that contradict Minnesota law may result in the proposal being disqualified from further review and evaluation.
