RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council award a contract for one Solid Waste medium-duty hook-lift truck and 10 containers to NorMont Equipment Co. in the amount of $129,375.00.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
The Billings Solid Waste Division desires to procure a medium-duty, work ready hook-lift truck with 10 containers that have an approximate size of 12 cubic yards. The smaller sized truck will be utilized to deliver into tighter and more difficult spaces to drop the containers. The 12 cubic yard containers will be used for smaller jobs around town. The truck and containers were advertised on May 21, 28, and June 4, 11, 2021 in the Yellowstone County News and on the City's website. Bids were opened on June 15, 2021. Three bids were received. NorMont Equipment Co. submitted the lowest responsible bid.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may:
- Award procurement of the medium duty hook-lift truck and 10 containers to NorMont Equipment Co., in the amount of $129,375.00; or,
- Do not award the procurement and reject all bids. If the procurement is not awarded, the Billings Solid Waste will not have equipment available to deliver in tighter locations and drop containers for smaller jobs when necessary.
