STAFF REPORT
CITY OF PALM DESERT
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
MEETING DATE: October 15, 2020
PREPARED BY: David Reyes, Jr., Street Maintenance Supervisor
REQUEST: Authorize the Purchase of a Front End Loader from RDO
Equipment Company of Riverside, California, in the amount of
$197,642.48.
Recommendation
By Minute Motion, authorize the purchase of a front end loader from RDO
Equipment Company of Riverside, California, in the amount of
$197,642.48:
Funds are available in Account No. 5304310-4403000, Equipment
Replacement.
Strategic Plan
The purchase of vehicles for the City's fleet is an operational function and has no impact
on the Strategic Plan
Background Analvsis
The John Deere Frontend Loader (Equipment No. 008) is more than 29-years old and
falls under the California Air Resources Board Regulations and Compliance Schedule
with a Tier O engine, which means that it is out of compliance. Staff has a limited time to
update the equipment with a Tier 4 engine. Due to this during the FY 2019/20 budget
preparation, staff submitted a white paper for replacement of the front end loader, which
was subsequently approved for the budget of Fiscal Year 2020/21.
Staff previously contacted Enterprise Fleet Management, the City's vehicle lease
provider, regarding the lease of large, specialty vehicles. Enterprise responded that due
to the complexity of these types of heavy equipment, none of its service writers were
able to provide lease quotes for this type of equipment. Therefore, staff obtained a
Sourcewell Program quote from RDO Equipment Company for a New 2020 John Deere
524L Front End Loader.
Sourcewell is a government, education and non-profit cooperative purchasing platform
that provides information related to competitive solicitations and awarded contracts that
meet or exceed local requirements for a wide variety of commodities and services. The
October 15, 2020 - Staff Report
Purchase of a Front End Loader from RDO Equipment
Page 2 of 2
provisions of the City of Palm Desert Municipal Code Section 3.30.160(E), allow the City
to participate in purchasing cooperatives for efficiency and use pricing for this type of
equipment. Therefore, in accordance with Palm Desert Municipal Code 3.30.260, the
bidding process is not required.
Fiscal Analvsis
The quote includes a credit of $15,000 for trade in of the City's current front loader
reducing cost from $212,642.48 to $197,642.48. The purchase was in included in the
City's Capital Improvement Project (CIP) List, and is funded through the vehicle
replacement fund so there is no direct impact on the General Fund. The new loader will
require regular maintenance, however the cost to maintain it is expected to be less than
the previous loader. (REF: CI FY 2020-21 Line 21 N)

The undersigned, authorized representative of the entity submitting the foregoing proposal (the "Proposer"), swears that
the following statements are true to the best of his or her knowledge.
1. The Proposer is submitting its proposal under its true and correct name, the Proposer has been properly originated
and legally exists in good standing in its state of residence, the Proposer possesses, or will possess before
delivering any products and related services, all applicable licenses necessary for such delivery to Sourcewell

the Proposer to the terms in this Contract.'
2. The Proposer, or any person representing the Proposer, has not directly or indirectly entered into any agreement
or arrangement with any other vendor or supplier, any official or employee of Sourcewell, or any person, firm, or
corporation under contract with Sourcewell, in an effort to influence the pricing, terms, or conditions relating to
this RFP in any way that adversely affects the free and open competition for a Contract award under this RFP.
3. The Proposer has examined and understands the terms, conditions, scope, contract opportunity, specifications
request, and other documents in this solicitation and affirms that any and all exceptions have been noted in
writing and have been included with the Proposer's RFP response.
4. The Proposer will, if awarded a Contract, provide to Sourcewell Members the /products and services in

the other documents in this solicitation.
5. The Proposer agrees to deliver products and services through valid contracts, purchase orders, or means that are

proposals are considered nonpublic data until the evaluation is complete and a Contract is awarded. At that point,
proposals generally become public data. Minnesota Statute § 13.37 permits only certain narrowly defined data to

8. The Proposer understands that it is the Proposer's duty to protect information that it considers nonpublic,
and it agrees to defend and indemnify Sourcewell for reasonable measures that Sourcewell takes to
uphold such a data designation.

JDCRS' only option for payment terms is Net 30 Days.
2) Do you provide leasing or financing options, especially those options that schools and governmental entities may
need to use in order to make certain acquisitions?
JDCRS (contract vendor) does not play a role in leasing, financing or payment terms other. than Net. 30 Days.
John Deere Financial offers leasing/financing options. The John Deere Municipal Lease Purchase Plan is a special
low -rate financing plan that is designed to provide flexibility of leasing; while building equity toward ownership of
the John Deere equipment. Any state or local government body, or their political subdivisions, having the power to
tax may be eligible for the John Deere Municipal Lease Purchase Plan, subject to approval.
John Deere Financial also offers other leasing and fnancing options for governmental, educational, and non-profit
entities, subject to approval.

The lease/finance provider funds the contract sales invoice within 30 days.
3) Briefly describe your proposed order process. Please include enough detail to support your ability to report quarterly
"sales to Sourcewell. For example, indicate whether your dealer network is included in your response and whether
each dealer (or some other entity) will process the Sourcewell Members' purchase orders.
JDCRS authorizes U.S. dealer groups to sell direct after they agree to uphold Sourcewell's T&Cs in writing.
Sourcewell members will contact their local dealer for assistance with machine and option selection.

The local dealer will provide the contract quote. Sourcewell members will submit their purchase orders to the
authorized quoting party noted on their contract quote. The quote number and the Sourcewell contract number must
be noted on the PO. If a municipal lease is involved, that too must be made known on the PO.
JDCRS will ship the unit to the selling U.S. dealer. For sales outside of the U.S., the local selling dealer will quote
and arrange the freight move from factory to dealer and from dealer to customer.
Setup, installs, inspection and final delivery are handled by the local dealer. Authorized seller will invoice Sourcewell
member upon receipt of product delivery acceptance .notice.

proposal.
54
Customer solutions offered in response to this RFP are John .Deere's Construction Equipment (CE) and Compact
Construction Equipment (CC.E) product lines. Heavy, medium and compact machines are available to meet the
Sourcewell members' needs. Specifically, there are 15 categories of 90 plus machines,. each with their own factory
options and attachments. Additionally, there are 120 plus attachment offerings to be used in conjunction with the
compact Pule of machines. Many of these attachments are functional on a variety of the four compact machine
categories; adding great versatility to the end -user. Further, local dealers will have the ability to provide customer
requested goods and services to complete the desired machine functionality.
8) Describe your pricing model (e.g., line -item discounts or product -category discounts). Provide detailed pricing data
(including standard or list pricing and the Sourcewell discounted price) on all of the items that you want Sourcewell
to consider as part of your RFP response. If applicable, provide a SKU for each item in your proposal. (Keep .in mind
that reasonable price and product adjustments can be made during the term of an awarded Contract. See the body of
the RFP and the Price and Product Change Request Form for more detail.)
As in previous contracts, we will use a discount off current list price for cacti product model. Complete commercial
price pages as well as a discount matrix are included with our bid. response. Base machine and four -digit factory build.
codes will receive the machine discount. Nan -factory items will be quoted by the dealer.
9) Please quantify the discount range presented in this response. For example, indicate that the pricing in your response
represents is a 50% percent discount from the MSRP or your published list.
The discount range varies from 20% to 44% off our published Dist prices.
10) The pricing offered in this proposal is
a. the same as the Proposer typically offers to an individual municipality, university, or school
district.
b. the same as the Proposer typically offers to GPOs, cooperative procurement organizations,
or state purchasing departments.
_X c. better than the Proposer typically offers to GPOs, cooperative procurement organizations,
or state purchasing departments.
d. other than what the Proposer typically offers (please describe).
11) Describe any quantity or volume discounts or rebate programs that you offer.
5-7 machines receive 1% additional discount
8-14 machines receive N additional discount
15-30 machines receive 3% additional discount
No rebates are offered.
12) Propose a method of facilitating "sourced" products or related services, which may be referred to as "open market"
items or "nonstandard options". For example, you may supply such items "at cost" or "at cost plus a percentage," or
you may supply a quote for each such request.
JDCRS can certainly offer "Sourced Goods". "Sourced Goods" are also referred to by John Deere as non -contract
items, allied items, referral attachments, dealer provided goods/services... We define non -contract as John Deere non -
factory items, such as Field Kits and Parts for dealer installation that appear in. the price pages. Allied equipment is
defined as other OEM equipment (ex. Bradco Rock Saw). Dealer provided goods/services are items such as:
Attachments, Parts, Setup, Installs, Inspection, Preventative Maintenance services, Extended Warranty...
Non -contract, allied, and dealer provided goods/services would be sold as sourced goods and the price of the item or
service is quoted by the John Deere dealer. Sourced goods will appear on the quote along with the contract item and
would be listed as "Dealer provide..."
M1
For example, a Sourcewell Member could purchase a John Deere Skid Steer Loader, an extra fu.eI tank cap (non-
contract part) and a Bradco Rock Saw (allied) by utilizing the SourceweIl contract, but the price of the fuel tank cap
and rock saw would be determined by the John Deere dealer and both would be listed on the PO as "Dealer provided
fuel cap and Dealer provided Bradco Rock Saw". We successfully use this process on other contracts.
13) Identify any total cost of acquisition costs that are NOT included in the pricing submitted with your response. This
cost includes all additional charges that are not directly identified as freight or shipping charges. For example, list
costs for items like installation, set up, mandatory training, or initial/pre-delivery inspection. Identify any parties that
impose such costs and their relationship to the Proposer.
Dealer provided goods and services: Customer requested non -factory goods/services will be quoted by dealer.
Set-up and installation fees: Dealer applied charges that cover their costs for installing and ensuring the proper
operation of sourced goods and field attaclnrients. The set-up and installation fees are quoted by the dealer.
Pre -Delivery Inspection (PDI): A PIN is performed on all new machine purchases to ensure proper fluid levels,
check system pressures, verify accurate systeru operation, and cleating of the unit prior to delivery. The cost of the
PDl is quoted by the dealer and will vary by machine model and complexity.
Taxes: Local taxes, if applicable, will be assessed.
14) If travel expense, delivery or shipping is an additional cost to the Sourcewell Member, describe in detail the complete
travel expense, shipping and delivery program.
JDCRS believes that charging the corporate contracted freight rates for each and every sale is most equitable due to
the'known sizes & weights and unknown distances that goods will travel to reach the Sourcewell -ember's local John
Deere dealership. All shipments in the continental U.S. (CONUS) region will therefore be FOB Destination, Pre -
Paid and Added. Factory to dealer freight will be quoted. Local delivery by dealer to customer location will also be
quoted.
Prospective buying agency must supply the full address for the end -user's delivery location at time of quote request.
Should buying agency choose not to use their nearest compact equipment dealer, the preferred dealer needs to be
clearly stated on the Purchase Order accordingly. Full-size equipment dealers have a defined coverage area and are
not selectable by the customer.
JDCRS will make every effort to deliver ordered items in as timely a fashion as possible. Actual delivery cannot be
defined ahead of time as warehouse dates are assigned. based on number of orders placed on the factory, logistics
assignment, transit time to local dealer, installs/setup/.inspection by local dealer and final delivery to end user. In
most cases, goods are delivered within )U days, but there may be exceptions from time 10 time.
15) Specifically describe those travel expense, shipping and delivery programs for Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, or any
offshore delivery.
As is the case for the continental U.S., factory to dealer freight as well as .local delivery by dealer to end -user will be
quotedand invoiced. Location specific constraints related to rnoves by; ocean, barge, inland... may affect final
delivery time.
16) Describe any unique distribution and/or delivery methods or options offered in your proposal.
None noted .that vary from what has previously been described. Should. a request come in that. requires firrtber
consideration, we will be happy to review for applicability.
56
17) Please specifically describe any self -audit process or program that you plan to employ to verify compliance with your
proposed Contract with Sourcewell. This process includes ensuring that Sourcewell Members obtain the proper
pricing, that the Vendor reports all sales under the Contract each quarter, and that the Vendor remits the proper
administrative fee to Sourcewell.
For sales that are processed through our office:, the quote and purchase order are reviewed by the in-house account
manager for accuracy. 11' the purchase order needs to be modified, the change request is submitted prior to
commencing the factory ordering process_
Monthly spot checks are performed by our accounting department to ensure the department is compliant with
published pricing and contract. discounts_ Addilionally, the accuracy of the contract sales reporting and administrative
fee paying are also audited.
llor sales that are processed through the dealer network, the quote and purchase order are reviewed by the selling
dealer. Dealers acquire the machines at a discount when selling through this contract. A program code has been
established for use at time ofdealer settlement to claim their discount. Uri a quarterly basis, JDCRS receives a dealer
settlement report from which the dealer sales are, retrieved and added to the in-house sales noted above.. Together,
the full report is reviewed, approved and processed for sales reporting to Sourcewell and for payment of admin flees.
18) Identify a proposed administrative fee that you will pay to Sourcewell for facilitating, managing, and promoting the
Sourcewell Contract in the event that you are awarded a Contract. This fee is typically calculated as a percentage of
Vendor's sales under the Contract or as a per -unit fee; it is not a line -item addition to the Member's cost of goods.
(See. Rl?P Section 6.29 and following for details.)
We propose a 1% admin fee applicable only to the equipment's contrdo selling price (List price of equipment on
contract reduced by the contract. discount percentage). The incidental, non -factory items and dealer provided goods
and services (rill items not priecd/discounted by contract), will be excluded from the calculation. 'Phis process has
proven functional in the past to accurately report sales activity sterninin,g from dealers across the nation and for paying
admin fees in a timely fashion.
