I. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:

1. Overview and Goals The goal of this solicitation is to secure a source to purchase a 34K LB Class Wheel Loader for the Water and Sewer Department for the City of Tulsa.

2. Term of Contract The City intends to award a one-year annual contract. The City may offer the Seller the opportunity for additional one-year terms. The City also reserves the right to make multiple or partial awards. To do business with the City, You must agree to the terms and conditions of the City’s standard Purchase Agreement, indicated by Your Authorized Agent’s signature on the Purchase Agreement.

Capitalized terms used in this IFB and not defined in the Purchase Agreement shall have the meanings as ascribed to them in Title 6, Chapter 4 of the Tulsa Revised Ordinances.

The entire Invitation for Bid (IFB), including any additional information submitted by Bidder and Accepted by City will be included as part of the Agreement between Seller and City. All sheets of this IFB (including Sections I-VI) must be submitted.

Authorized Agent Several parts of the Bid (Affidavits, Purchase Agreement) must be signed by an “Authorized Agent.” An Authorized Agent means an agent who is legally authorized to bind the Seller under the law of the state in which the Seller is legally organized. For instance, under Oklahoma law, the Authorized Agent for each of the following types of entities is as stated below:

o Corporations – the president, board chair or board vice chair (or the vice president if the corporation was formed in Oklahoma) can sign; others can sign if they have and provide the City with (i) a corporate resolution giving them authority to bind the Seller, and (ii) a recent certificate of secretary indicating the authority is still valid and was in full force and effect on the date of the signature. (See IFB Section VI for sample of a Certificate of Secretary) o General Partnerships – any partner can sign to bind all partners.

o Limited Partnerships – the general partner must sign.

o Individuals – no additional authorization is required, but signatures must be witnessed and notarized.

o Sole Proprietorship – the owner can sign. Any other person can sign if s/he provides a recent Power of Attorney, signed by the owner, authorizing him/her to bind the sole proprietorship.

o Limited Liability Company (LLC) – any manager of the LLC elected by the members of the LLC, or any member signing as manager of the LLC. All other signers will need a Consent of Members signed by all the Members of the LLC authorizing their signature on or up to 30 days before the date of their signature. (See Section VI for sample of a Consent of Members)

Entities organized in states other than Oklahoma must follow the law of the state in which they are organized.

IFB Rev 02/2024 4

II. SCOPE OF SERVICES AND SPECIFICATIONS

1. Scope of Services The City is requesting Bids for a 34K LB Class Wheel Loader for the Water and Sewer Department.

Bids must state the number of Days required for delivery under normal conditions.

Absolutely no items over 500lbs. may be directly shipped to the City requiring the City personnel to unload from the shipping truck or trailer.

2. Specifications

The Bid must meet or exceed the following Specifications.

In the Table below, the Bidder shall respond to each minimum requirement set forth in the Specifications column by writing its response in the space provided under Section 2: Bidder’s Response column. Whenever asked to “describe”, the description may include details such as size, capacities, dimensions, materials used in construction, etc. A full and complete description is required to reasonably evaluate the Bid, so all pertinent information is required. When referring to attached literature as a means of not fully describing items, misinterpretations by the evaluator of the Bid may occur. Your ability to present the City with enough information to reasonably understand the item being bid and whether it meets the Specifications stated herein relies on the written information provided.

You are required to describe Your proposed equipment in the Bidder’s Response column, in terms that correspond with the minimum Specifications shown. You may not answer in the space provided as to whether You meet the Specifications by responding with terms as “yes”, “meets”, “same as”, “complies” or “similar” terms. If these terms are utilized, it shall result in Your Bid being considered as non-responsive and being rejected.

If bidding an equivalent, You must include descriptive manufacturer’s literature verifying the information You provided in the Bidder’s Response column with Your submission. Failure to provide such literature shall result in Your Bid being considered as non-responsive and being rejected. Any determination as to whether an item is equivalent that meets the Specifications shall be made at the sole discretion of the City.

Seller shall ensure that each vehicle and related parts are warranted by the manufacturer to be of good material and workmanship and that manufacturer promptly replace any part or parts which by reason of defective materials or workmanship shall fail under normal use, free of negligence or accident, for a minimum of one (1) year from the date of delivery, unless otherwise stated. In addition, if such failures take place outside the dealer’s service area, which shall be defined as Tulsa city limits, the Seller will be responsible for reimbursing the nearest manufacturer’s authorized dealer in the city of Tulsa for services rendered under this warranty.

The Seller shall respond within 72 hours of notification by the City of Tulsa, on when, where, and how a warranty issue will be resolved. In the event there is no response within 72 hours, or if the

IFB Rev 02/2024 5 response is not acceptable to the City of Tulsa; the City will provide or arrange for repairs. The Seller shall be responsible for reimbursing the nearest manufacturer’s authorized dealer in the city of Tulsa for services rendered under this warranty.

The Seller shall have the option to authorize the City of Tulsa to perform minor warranty replacement and repairs and then reimburse the City for its labor and parts utilized to enact the repair.
