Title
Three-Year Term Contract for Original Equipment Manufacturer Heavy-Duty Truck Repair Services for Peterbilt Trucks (Citywide)
The City currently has a fleet of 49 Peterbilt model trucks with 14 more new Peterbilt trucks on order for the Solid Waste Management Department. Fleet Services completes maintenance and repairs in-house of 90% of these trucks. For repairs that require specialized service, tools and training, the City needs to have the ability to send these trucks to an OEM authorized Peterbilt dealer. This allows the City to utilize warranty coverage or qualify for factory assistance reimbursement. Additionally, the City is guaranteed the best quality repair parts with a national warranty honored by all Peterbilt dealers.
Fleet Services and Purchasing recommend authorizing a three-year contract using the Maricopa County cooperative contract with Rush Truck Centers of Arizona, at $60,000.00 annually, based on estimated requirements.
