DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On behalf of Marion County Fire Rescue (MCFR), Procurement Services is requesting a bid exemption for the refurbishment of a 2007 E-One Typhoon Pumper, Asset 39958, Serial 13244, VIN 4ENRAAA8771002444.
This engine has served as a reserve unit for more than 10 years and has been out of service for the past two (2) years. To avoid the significant cost of purchasing a new engine and to minimize the use of surtax funds required to return this unit to front-line service, approval is requested for On Scene Repairs & Maintenance, LLC (On Scene) to perform the necessary scope of work. MCFR was not able to obtain additional quotes as the only other certified provider capable of performing this service did not respond to the request.
Attached for review and approval is the Solicitation Waiver and the On Scene’s quote. Upon approval at today's meeting, the waiver will be presented to the Chairman for signatures.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; expenditure of $280,879.21. Funding is from VJ732522-564101 (INFRAST SURTAX CAP PROJ FUND).
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve the bid exemption and authorize the Chairman to execute the solicitation waiver under 26BE-070.
