SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract with Siddons-Martin Emergency Group,
LLC, through the Houston-Galveston Area Council of Governments (H-GAC) Cooperative Purchasing
Program Contract Number FS12-17, for the acquisition of one (1) Oshkosh 3000 Striker 6X6, Aircraft
Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) vehicle for the Fire Department; and providing an effective date (File
7194 – awarded to Siddons-Martin Emergency Group, LLC in the not-to-exceed amount of $754,922).
INFORMATION /BACKGROUND
The acquisition of a new Oshkosh 3000 Striker 6X6 ARFF is the result of the coordinated efforts of Fleet
Services and the Denton Fire Department to ensure vehicles and equipment are acquired and replaced in a
timely manner. This ensures the safe and efficient response capability of the Denton Fire Department.
Oshkosh is the parent company of Pierce and manufactures all airport firefighting apparatus under the
Oshkosh name. The City of Denton Fire Department has standardized the purchase of apparatus to Pierce
manufacturing to create efficiencies with service, training, maintenance and parts supplies. Siddons-Martin
Emergency Group, LLC, a local vendor and the only authorized Pierce dealer in the state of Texas,
submitted an HGAC contract quote for one (1) Oshkosh 3000 Striker 6X6 ARFF to include the associated
equipment.
The primary function of this vehicle is to provide an optimum level of ARFF suppression capability
throughout the critical rescue and firefighting access area at the Denton Enterprise Airport. The new Striker
ARFF will enter service as a fleet replacement. The current ARFF is a 1988 model Emergency One vehicle
that was donated to the Fire Department in 2011 by the Jet Works Air Center for use at the Denton Enterprise
Airport to meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 139 service requirements.
The manufacturer anticipates delivery to occur within 12 months of order date. By submitting full
prepayment of $754,922 for the Oshkosh 3000 Striker vehicle and associated equipment, the City of Denton
will receive a prepay discount of $27,099.
Pricing obtained through the H-GAC Cooperative Purchasing Network has been competitively bid and
meets the statutory requirements of Texas Local Government Code 271.102.
