BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Public Works - Fleet Services (DPW) manages the diesel and unleaded motor fuel supply for the City’s fleet. DPW also supplies fuel for School Districts 203 and 204, Naperville Public Library, and Naper Settlement. DPW dispenses approximately 250,000 gallons of unleaded gasoline and 130,000 gallons of diesel fuel per year.
In July 2018, the City Council awarded Contract 18-025 for motor fuel to Luke Oil for an
18-month term with three, one-year options to extend. The first option year was approved on February 4, 2020 and option year two was awarded on February 16, 2021.
DISCUSSION:
During the first two extensions of the contract, Luke Oil was immediately responsive to all motor fuel order requests. With few exceptions, fuel was delivered within one business day of order placement. In the event Luke Oil could not deliver within one business day they immediately responded with the reason (usually terminal supply-related) and the timeframe when the delivery would be available.
Based upon the vendor’s performance, DPW recommends extending the contract for the
third option year. Luke Oil has agreed to maintain the rates and terms provided for under the contract.
The term of the third option year is April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023, with no option years remaining on the agreement.
