The purpose and use of the Can -Am SXS 9SSA and QTAC EMS-R patient mover will be for mountain and remote rescues where our normal rescue apparatus cannot go. The Fire Department has conducted rescues recently in which we could utilize the Can -Am SXS 9SSA and QTAC EMS-R patient mover to ensure a safe rescue of the victim and protect the safety of our rescuers, to include wilderness, mudflats, mountains and streams. Can -Am was chosen due to being the only manufacturer of 6X6. The Fire Department directly solicited quotes from vendors known to carry the specialized Can - Am SXS 9SSA and QTAC EMS-R patient mover. Quotes for the project were received from four vendors for the Can -Am SXS 9SSA and Team CC Inc. DBA Valley CC in Wasilla had the lowest quote and met all requirements. Quotes were received from two vendors for the QTAC EMS-R patient mover and MTECH, Inc had the lowest quote and met all requirements. The Fire Department is recommending the lowest priced bid for both purchases. Funds are available in the Motor Pool Reserves for the purchase of the Can -Am SXS 9SSA and QTAC EMS-R patient mover for Seward Fire Department in the amount of $46,654.00 plus a 10% contingency, not to exceed $51,319.40.
