Contract: Siemens S70 Center Truck Frame Purchase (Siemens Mobility, Inc.)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize Executive Director to execute the contract, and associated disbursements with Siemens Mobility Inc. in the amount of $2,151,049.00 to provide four (4) Siemens S70 center truck frames.
BACKGROUND:
The Light Rail Fleet Sustainability team overhauls and repairs multiple components for the light rail vehicles. The Center Truck Frame cores are sent to an outside vendor to be repaired on a rotation basis. Over time these cores become damaged or worn out and are no longer able to be rebuilt. Thus new frames must be procured from time-to-time to replace worn-out axles. Also, the S70 truck frames are no longer in production. This procurement will obtain frames to support the fleet though the end of its useful life.
DISCUSSION:
This procurement was completed as an Invitation for Bid (IFB). It resulted in contracts between Utah Transit Authority (UTA) and Siemens Mobility Inc. to supply UTA with four (4) Center Truck Frames. These S70 CT Frames are being purchased to increase the number of parts cores in the rebuild rotation as lead-times to rebuild the S70 CT Trucks has increased significantly in the past year.
