Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order Equipment Depot of Illinois, Inc. to Furnish and Deliver one electric Genie Z-34/22DC Articulating Z-Boom Lift. The vehicles will be delivered by December 31, 2021.
Terex USA, LLC currently has a competitively bid contract with Sourcewell, formerly National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), Purchasing Contract No. 041719-TER. Genie is a major brand manufactured by Terex USA, LLC. Equipment Depot of Illinois, Inc. is the authorized distributor for Terex LLC, the manufacturer. On May 19, 2011, the Board of Commissioners granted authority to participate in the NJPA purchasing cooperative. The contracts were established to enable all state agencies and authorized local governmental units to purchase current model year production vehicles during the contract period. The term of contract 041719-TER began on June 17, 2019 and expires on June 17, 2023.
This order consists of the procurement of one electric Genie Z-34/22DC Articulating Z-Boom Lift for the O’Brien Water Reclamation Plant.
Equipment Depot of Illinois, Inc. is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) and Affirmative Action, Revised Appendix D are not applicable to this requisition because it is primarily a furnish and deliver contract.
The Procurement and Materials Management Department believes that participating in the Sourcewell contract will expedite the ordering and delivery of the one electric Genie Z-34/22DC Articulating Z-Boom Lift and reduce administrative costs.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to Equipment Depot of Illinois, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $49,443.00.
Funds are available in Account 101-67000-634860.
