The reasons, though not specifically stated in the bid documents, were reasonable and were confirmed through our inquiries and investigation. The low bidder, Primax USA, protested stating our reasons were not accurate. After further conversations with Primax, they produced documentation showing that warranty, service, parts and repair is provided locally at Ft. Lupton, Colorado through Rain -for -Rent. This information should have been provided up front and was initially in conflict with information provided to us through our phone calls to Primax prior to the date of bid award. What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options) 1. Rescind the awards to Wagner Rents for the 2 pumps and award to Primax who is the low bidder and who meets the requirements of the bid specifications. 2. Do not rescind the awards to Wagner Rents. Recommendation: The total cost for both pumps from Primax is $54,450. This is a $17,550 savings over Wagner Rents, or 24% less cost over the total price from Wagner. Public Works recommends option 1.

We would like Option 1 (three each — 20' collapsible discharge hoses) at a cost of $143.00 each or $429.00 for three for a total price of $33,439.63. The pumps bid by the lowest bidder, Primax USA, are built in Australia and assembled with local parts and motor in North Carolina.
