Award Information

This Award Information file documents the contract award made by the Polk County Board of Commissioners in Georgia for the purchase of a mini excavator. The Polk County Board of Commissioners solicited sealed bids from qualified vendors for the procurement of a new mini excavator meeting specifications equivalent to a Bobcat E88 or similar equipment. The sealed bid submission deadline was 4:00 PM on Tuesday, September 20, 2022, with bids to be opened immediately thereafter at the Commissioners Office located at 216 Main Street in Cedartown, Georgia 30125. Bid documents were available through the Polk County Administration Office at the same address and on the Polk County website at www.polkga.org. The award was made to the vendor whose bid best satisfied the requirements and served the interests of Polk County.

Central Atlanta Tractor Sales was selected as the successful bidder and awarded the contract at a price of $89,228. The brand name specification of the Bobcat E88 was used to establish quality and operational standards rather than to indicate brand preference, allowing for equivalent alternative equipment to be bid. No renewal options or contract term information is specified in this award documentation.
