Agreement with Great Western Reclamation <br /> April 19, 1993 <br /> Page 2 <br /> The City' s objectives as identified in the RFP are as follows: <br /> 1. To meet the mandates of AB 939 that require a 25% <br /> reduction in 1995 and 50% reduction in 2000 in solid <br /> waste that is disposed of at the landfills in accordance <br /> with the City' s plan. <br /> 2 . To obtain quality service for the community. <br /> 3 . To obtain competitive rates for these services. <br /> A mandatory pre-proposal meeting was held the following week to <br /> address any questions. Representatives from ten companies attended <br /> the conference. On March 8, 1993 the City received four responses. <br /> Those responding included Great Western Reclamation, Browning- <br /> Ferris Industries, Western Waste Industries and Ware Disposal. <br /> The evaluation team was comprised of the City Manager, City <br /> Attorney, and the Executive Director, Administrative Services <br /> Manager and Enterprise Coordinator from the Public Works Agency. <br /> The proposals were evaluated on their technical ability to perform <br /> the required services, customer service and references, and their <br /> financial ability/willingness to assume the responsibility for <br /> complying with AB 939 . Following completion of the technical <br /> evaluation, the cost proposals were reviewed. <br /> Ware Disposal failed to submit the required proposal deposit and <br /> submitted a proposal only for a portion of the required services. <br /> That proposal was subsequently considered unresponsive. The other <br /> three proposals were rated as indicated below. Total costs based <br /> on the numbers of existing curbside and bin customers submitted for <br /> the first two years of the agreement (during implementation of the <br /> recycling programs) are as follows: <br /> Costs Costs <br /> Proposal Rating FY 93-94 FY/94-95 <br /> Great Western Reclamation 96. 33 $13 , 963 , 548 $16,729,548 <br /> Browning-Ferris Industries 94 . 00 15, 550, 358 16,969,439 <br /> Western Waste Industries 68 . 33 17 , 649 , 996 19,659,444 <br /> Based on the technical rating and the proposed costs (Great <br /> Western's proposed costs are $1, 826, 701 less than the next lowest <br /> proposal during the two-year period) , staff is recommending an <br /> agreement with Great Western Reclamation. A summary of the rates <br /> proposed is attached (Exhibit 1) . <br /> ASF 148 <br />
