The Tender request was issued November 30, 2016 and closed on December 14, 2016, explained Johnathan Oranchuk, Fleet Operations Manager at the regular meeting of Council Monday.
Four Vendors submitted Tenders which were publically opened at 2:00 pm, December 14, 2016. No suppliers attended the opening.
“Suppliers were required to bid on gasoline and diesel fuel with pricing being adjusted weekly or monthly (up or down) based on the average rack price, for each fuel, for the previous week.
Brendonn Holdings, the local Petro Canada dealer was the low bidder for gasoline and diesel fuel meeting the specifications as outlined in the Tender document,” detailed a report circulated to Council.
