body

DEPARTMENT:  Fleet Management

 

ORIGINATOR:  Bill Thornton, Purchasing Manager

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 8/6/25

 

PURPOSE: Heavy Construction Equipment with Related Attachments and Technology

 

BACKGROUND: Sourcewell issued RFP number 011723 for Heavy Construction Equipment with Related Attachments and Technology on November 15, 2022.  The bid contained 4 major categories of equipment: (1) Wheeled and tracked backhoe loaders; (2) Motor graders; (3) Wheeled and tracked excavators; and (4) Cranes. Thirteen Suppliers were awarded. This recommendation is for the highest scoring proposer for Categories 1, 2 and 3.  The recommended supplier is not located in Snohomish County but has local dealerships. Issuing a county bid is not expected to result in a difference of supplier. The purchase of this equipment supports the equipment replacement program operated by Facilities & Fleet for the Road Maintenance Division and others. The estimated award amount is to cover the potential need in the event we reach award limits through the ultimate piggyback term ending 4/14/2028. Estimated award amount is $4,000,000.
