Title
38. Motion to Procure Two Street Sweepers from Environmental Products Group, Inc. (Event No. 7019)
Strategic Priority
Neighborhood Revitalization
Description

Recommend approval to procure two street sweepers in the amount of $429,806.00 from Environmental Products Group, Inc., dba Environmental Products of Georgia, the authorized dealer for this region.  Pricing for this truck was obtained using Sourcewell, formerly the National Joint Powers Alliance, a purchasing cooperative of which the City has been a member since 2009.  Cooperative purchasing is authorized as an appropriate procurement method in Division 10, Section 4-4152 of the City of Savannah’s purchasing ordinance.  Under the Sourcewell contract, Elgin Sweeper Company is the contracted vendor for this equipment, and has authorized dealers to provide this type of specialty equipment to meet the needs of member agencies at a rate less than fair market value. 

The sweepers will replace the units that have reached the end of their useful life cycle. The Sanitation Department will use the sweepers to provide sweeping of street curbs throughout the City.
