T7 q I The Purchasing Department sought formal bids for the purchase of (2) 2009 Ford Escapes, XLT, 2WD vehicles for the Fire Department. On October 22, 2008 (6) bids were mailed out. Bid opening was scheduled for November 12, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. and (3) bids were received. The problem is, the department's specifications requested that the exterior vehicle color be "Torch red". Three days before the bids: were due, Purchasing contacted the vendors regarding the pending deadline, and were told by the three respondents that the external vehicle color would be changed to "Sangria red". All three vendors advised that the requested color was no longer being produced by Ford. The Fire Department was notified of the color change, and the bids were accepted. The initial review, indicated that Wondries Ford submitted the lowest bid, at a cost of $18,386.00/vehicle. On November 22°a, Battalion Chief Dave Kimes advised Purchasing that he visited Wondries Ford, to check on the Chief s pending Tahoe, and to discuss the department's Escapes. While discussing the problem with the color selection, the Fleet Manager was able to locate (15) Ford Escapes in the "Torch red" color. BC Kimes requested that Purchasing move forward as quickly as possible to secure two of these vehicles in this color. Purchasing contacted Mike Ladner of Wondries Ford, on Monday November 241h, to request more information regarding the "found" Torch red vehicles. I also contacted Judy Lehr, to find out what the City's next move should be, in lieu of the new information regarding the external color. Purchasing contacted the other two dealerships, who responded to the bid, with the news regarding the "found" vehicles. Judy needed to confer with Jeff Harrison, regarding the new revelations, but did advise we could solicit informal bids, from the dealerships that initially responded to Bid #1458. All three dealerships have advised that they can now provide quotations for the vehicles, with the requested color "Torch Red". December 2, 2008 As of this morning, Purchasing received two informal bids from Sopp Ford Truck Center and South Bay Ford & Lincoln/Mercury. Purchasing spoke with Mr. Ladner of Wondries Ford, and was advised that he will not submit a bid. Purchasing contacted Battalion Chief Dave Kimes at home, to advise him of the quoted pricing received. BC Kimes has requested that the vendor providing the lowest bid be recommended to receive the approval for issuance of the Purchase Order. Therefore, Purchasing is requesting authorization to approve the informal bid submitted by Sopp Ford Truck Center, for the (2) Ford Escape XLT, FWD vehicles with the 2 1 R Cargo package. The cost for these vehicles is $19,361.00 (plus sales taxes and license fees) per vehicle. 1.1/26/2008 16:04 3235869027 SOPP FORD PAGE 01 SOPP �70-z° Truck Center 5925 S.

I also spoke with the Fleet Manager at Wondries Ford who found 15 Ford Escapes in Torch Red within 150 miles. I asked Mike Ladner to look into this and he said he could get the vehicles we specified. The bid on the Escapes should go to the low bidder which is Wondries Ford. If we can expedite the purchase, Mike Ladner can trade the Escapes from other dealers. I don't know how the purchase works, but if you can notify him ASAP to secure the vehicles from other dealers he can get the Torch Red. Thanks for your support.
