Contract #060311-CAT, from Yancey Brothers Caterpillar (Fortson, GA) in the

The D6 bulldozer tractors are replacement units and will be used by the Street

Improvements Division of the Public Services Department to push dirt and clean

at job sites throughout Muscogee County.



The purchase will be accomplished via Request for Proposal (RFP) #060311,

initiated by the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), whereby Caterpillar,

Inc., was one of the successful vendors contracted to provide Heavy

Construction Equipment Together With Related Accessories, Supplies, and

Services. The contract, which commenced July 19, 2011, is good through July

19, 2015. The National Joint Powers Alliance is a Service Cooperative created

by Minnesota Statute 123A.21. This statute was created in 1978 and revised in

1995 to allow participating governmental and municipal agencies to reduce the

cost of purchased goods by leveraging their combined purchasing power. The

NJPA bid process meets the Procurement Ordinance requirements for Columbus

Consolidated Government.



Two local vendors were awarded NJPA contracts for the specified equipment.

Both vendors were contacted for quotes. Flint Equipment Company (Columbus, GA)

quoted a John Deere 850K in the amount of $589,857.42 ($294,928.71 per unit).

However, the user unit determined that the 850K did not meet the needs of the

landfill. Flint Equipment Company was notified of this determination and given

daily basis, eight (8) hours per day, and is operated by inmates. The cost of

a replacement bulldozer is estimated at $575.000.00.

amount $30,778.27. The City Manager approved the emergency repair on October

21, 2011.

2. Emergency Repair of Boiler & Cooling Tower at Muscogee County Jail:



On September 20, 2011, the Public Services Department (Facilities Maintenance)

requested approval for the emergency repair of the boiler at the county jail.

This boiler supplies hot water for heat to the 84 Tower and Recorders Court.

The Facilities Maintenance Manager received a quote from Banks Boiler Service,

in the amount of $13,775.00, to replace all the tubes, gaskets and set the

combustion limits. The City Manager approved the emergency repair on September

20, 2011.



On October 25, 2011, the Facilities Maintenance Manager requested approval for

the emergency repair of the frequency drive for the cooling tower at the

Jail. Banks Boiler Company damaged the cooling tower while repairing the

boiler. The Facilities Maintenance Manager contacted Holbrook Service Company

to provide a quote to repair the frequency drive, which is $5,585.00. The City

Manager approved the repair on the frequency drive on October 25, 2011.

3. Emergency Purchase of Two Replacement Tire Changing Machines:



On October 27, 2011, the Fleet Division of Public Services requested approval

for the emergency purchase of two replacement tire changing machines to be

utilized at the Fleet Shop.



Both of the current tire changing machines became inoperable at the same time.

Both machines are more than 15 years old. The repair costs would exceed the

purchase of new units, due to the age of the machines and the availability of

parts. The emergency purchase is requested before the Fleet Division is

forced to utilize outside contractors, which could cost the city up to

$2,200.00 a week. The tire shop changes up to 150 tires a week. On the open

market, a tire change could cost between $15.00 to $18.00 a tire.



The Fleet Shop contacted the manufacturer?s representative for the current

machines, Mohawk Rubber Sales of N.E., who quoted $5,964.28 to replace both

tire changing machines. The City Manager approved the emergency repair on

October 27, 2011.
