Pre-Procurements
- General Bus Maintenance
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Pre-Procurement
RECOMMENDATION:
Informational report for discussion
BACKGROUND:
Utah’s Public Transit District Act requires all contracts valued at $200,000 or greater be approved by the UTA Board of Trustees. This informational report on upcoming procurements allows Trustees to be informed and provide input on upcoming procurement projects. Following the bid solicitation and contract negotiation process, final contracts for these projects will come before the board for approval.
DISCUSSION:
• General Bus Maintenance. On occasion UTA has the need to send a bus to a local vendor to perform warranty repairs. During these repairs other issues on the vehicle may be discovered that are not covered by warranty but need to be repaired in conjunction with the warranty repair. This procurement is to establish pricing and a contract with a vendor to perform these ad hoc repairs. This enables the repair to be completed, and the vehicle to return to service as soon as possible. Establishing a contract with a vendor also ensures we meet State Procurement code requirements for fair and open competition. In certain circumstances this contract will also allow the vendor to perform overflow maintenance and repairs on buses that our shop may not be able to perform due to resource limitations and/or spare vehicle availability.
This contract will have an annual Not-To-Exceed amount of $200,000, and funding for the contract is included in the Operations maintenance budget. (Req. 9989, Kyle Stockley)
