Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve the renewal of Contract 11-34-HFM-04 for Heavy Equipment Rentals to various vendors in the not to exceed amount of $96,000 for the period of April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014 for the Fleet Management Department.

Background:

On March 15, 2011 the Board of Supervisors approved the award of Invitation for Bids No. 11-34-HFM-04 for the rental of heavy equipment. This will be the second renewal of Contract No. 11-34-HFM-04. Some vendors have agreed to hold their pricing firm or offered slight decreases for the contract renewal period. B&B Equipment Rental and Volvo Rents have requested slight increases in their rental rates. Neff Rentals is offering State contract pricing and H&E Equipment Services has decided not to renew for a second term. The Heavy Fleet Management Department is satisfied with the services provided by the vendors who were awarded contracts as follows:

ECCO Equipment Rental Corp., Tucson, AZ
B&B Equipment Rental, Tucson, AZ
Empire Machinery, Tucson, AZ
Volvo Rents, Tucson, AZ
*Titan Machinery, Tucson, AZ
Sunbelt Rentals, Inc., Fort Mills, SC
*United Rentals, Tucson, AZ
Earhart Equipment Corp., Tucson, AZ
Neff Rentals, Tucson, AZ

*Titan Rentals bought out Tucson Tractor and United Rentals merged with RSC during the previous contract period

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Process purchase orders. Monitor performance of contracts.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Procurement would be required to obtain quotes every time there was a need for heavy equipment rental which would most likely result in higher rental prices and additional workload for both Procurement and Fleet Management Departments.
