Contract Award for a CNG Hydro -Excavation Unit <br />June 5, 2018 <br />Page 2 <br />Given the scope and size of the City's existing water distribution system, Public Works Agency <br />staff recommends that an additional hydro -excavation unit be purchased in order to keep up with <br />the current demand for repairing damaged and/or broken water mains. <br />As a result of an open, competitive bidding process, the National Joint Powers Alliance recently <br />awarded a contract for Vac -Con hydro -excavation units to Atlantic Machinery, Inc., at a cost of <br />$497,748.38 each (Contract #122017 -AMI). The specifications for these units have been <br />determined to meet the City's requirements. Because Santa Ana Ordinance No. NS -2312 <br />authorizes the City to also purchase against contracts (commonly referred to as "piggyback") <br />from another public agency that utilized a competitive bid process, staff is recommending to <br />award a contract to Atlantic Machinery, Inc., for the same equipment. The amount of the City's <br />contract includes a $10,000 contingency for any unanticipated services, accessories, and <br />supplies, for a total award of $507,748.38. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Strategic Plan Goal #6 — Community <br />Facilities & Infrastructure, Objective #2 (address deferred maintenance on City buildings and <br />equipment). <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds in the amount of $507,748.38 are available in the FY 2017-18 Water Systems <br />Maintenance account (06017641-66400). <br />Acting Executive Dire <br />Public Works Agency <br />CL/sp <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br />Jk'k � ✓ <br />Executive Director <br />Finance and Management Services Agency <br />22A-2 <br />
