AGENDA ITEM:

Consideration and Action Regarding Approving a Cooperative Purchasing Contract with Cummins, Inc for the Purchase of a 175kW and 275kW Generator in the Amount of $201,439 in Accordance with the Terms and Conditions Submitted to Sourcewell in Contract No.120617-CMM - Todd Wallace, Project Manager

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Town Council has approved the Motorola Solutions and Willmeng proposals as they relate to the Public Safety Communications Project at the Wickenburg Police Station. This project requires a 175kW backup generator. Due to significant cost savings, the Town has opted to purchase the generator directly from Cummins using a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement with Sourcewell. Further, the Town has need of a 275kW mobile generator to use for backup power at various Town well sites. By combining the purchase of these two generators, the Town will realize a savings of $8,182.

We will be purchasing both of these generators, not renting them. The word standby-rental is used in the description because it is a mobile unit that is used by some companies as a standby generator or as a rental generator.

SUGGESTED MOTION:

I move to approve and authorize the Mayor to execute a Cooperative Purchasing Contract with Cummins, Inc for the purchase of one 175kW generator and one 275kW mobile generator in the amount of $201,439 in accordance with the terms and conditions submitted to Sourcewell in contract No. 120617-CMM.
