BACKGROUND:
The City Council awarded Contract 21-053 to Aurora Truck Center and Interstate Power Systems on March 2, 2022 for a two-year term with three, one-year options to extend. The purpose of the contract is to provide medium-heavy duty truck and off-road equipment repairs to City owned vehicles and equipment when those repairs cannot be completed in-house.
DISCUSSION:
During the original term of the contract, Fleet Services outsourced ten medium-heavy duty truck repairs to Aurora Truck Center and 11 off-road equipment repairs to Interstate Power Systems. Both vendors completed the repairs within the timeframe required.
Based upon the vendors’ performance, the Department of Public Works recommends extending the contract for the first option year. Aurora Truck Center and Interstate Power Systems have agreed to maintain the rates and terms.
The term of the first option year is January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023, with two, one- year options remaining on the agreement.
