Item/Subject: Award of Bid. Bangor International Airport,'
Aircraft Air Start unit
Responsible Department: Purchasing
Commentary:
An aircraft air start unit is a very large trailer mounted
air compressor that is used to start jet engines. The City
received two bide for this equipment which were reviewed by
the Airport Department. After a study of the equipment
proposed and after discussions with a major airline, it is the
recommendation of the Airport Department that the City reject
the low bid from Devtec (due to reliability and safety consid-
erations) and purchase the Stewart S Stevenson equipment for
$127,546.00 (see attached memorandum from Bob $iegelaar).
This item was reviewed and approved for the 1992 Airport
budget at $126,000.00 Airline Services Division.

MEMORANDUM
TO: David Pellegrino
FROM: Bob Siegelaar
REP: Air Start/PurChase
DATE: August 390 1991
with reference to the above acquisition, I would like to advise
YOU of any strong Preference for the bid submitted by Stewart d
Stevenson. This preference is based on our previous ewperience
with that company's equipment.
I recommend that we not purchase the low bid unit from Devteth.
We have reliable reports from a major VS. carrier which indicate
serious reliability problems. In addition, this unit does not
have an emergency shut -down.
As a result of a telephone conversation between my staff and
Stewart a Stevenson, the company has agreed to waive charges for
$4,700 worth of desired options. Our price at this point is
identical to the one charged to the major carrier we contacted.
