Summary
The Public Works Department recommends the purchase of equipment utilized by the Public Works Department through Sourcewell. Sourcewell is a public agency based in Minnesota that issues Cooperative Purchasing Agreements to simplify the procurement process for public agencies and take advantage of volume purchasing. Use of a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement streamlines administrative costs and procedures while maintaining the integrity of the competitive bidding process. The specifications for the crane truck, chipper truck, and grapple truck available through Sourcewell meet the City’s requirements for this type of equipment.
It is recommended that Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute three Cooperative Purchasing Agreements through Sourcewell for a total of $908,874.98 for the purchase of one crane truck, one chipper truck, and one grapple truck.

DISCUSSION
Background
The acquisition of the equipment will continue to support Public Works, allowing the Electrical, Trees, and Community Enhancement divisions to complete their daily tasks. The grapple truck is an addition to the fleet. The crane truck and chipper truck will replace older units that will be removed from service upon delivery of the new replacement units.
The City’s replacement criteria for miscellaneous equipment, based on industry standards for performance and efficiency, is 15 to 20 years based on the equipment type. Adherence to this standard replaces equipment before routine failures and breakdowns are experienced, reducing the demand for extensive mechanical repairs. The replacement standard increases the resources available for preventative maintenance and is critical to the availability and performance of all fleet equipment, which includes all public safety and emergency response vehicles. Fleet staff identified two pieces of equipment that exceed the age and/or have recurring mechanical or operational issues (Attachment A). All other acquisitions are additions to the fleet and are reflected in the vehicle purchase and replacement list.
Present Situation
Staff recommends the replacement purchase of one crane truck and one chipper truck and the additional purchase of one grapple truck utilizing Cooperative Purchasing Agreements with Sourcewell.
Sourcewell is a public agency based in Minnesota that serves as a municipal contracting agency to streamline the procurement process for public agencies and takes advantage of volume purchasing.
All Sourcewell contracts have been competitively bid, solicited nationally, reviewed, evaluated by a committee, and recommended to the Sourcewell Board of Directors for consideration of award. The use of these contracts is optional and is available to California State and local government agencies.
The recommended resolution authorizes the City Manager to execute three Cooperative Purchasing Agreements through Sourcewell for a total of $908,874.98 for the following purchases:
· $442,625.02 with Elliot Equipment Company through affiliated vendor, Nixon-Egli Equipment Company of Tracy, CA, to purchase one crane truck (Attachment B). · $176,634.36 with Altec Industries, Inc. of Bakersfield, CA, to purchase one chipper truck (Attachment C).
· $289,615.60 with Petersen Industries, Inc. through affiliated vendor, Municipal Maintenance Equipment, Inc. of Sacramento, CA, to purchase one grapple truck (Attachment D).
The equipment being replaced will be removed from the fleet and sold at public auction.
