Re: FY20 Bio-Diesel Fuel Contract for Nashua Transit
For FY20 Nashua Transit went out to bid for a fixed rate price for bio-diesel fuel. The RFP was
posted on the City website under RFPO0464-0426219 and sent to five known biodiesel suppliers.
Three (3) bids were received as follows:
1. Santa Buckley Energy $2.3982 per gallon
2. Dennis K. Burke — $2.4351 per gallon
3. East River Energy — $2.5703 per gallon
Although Santa Buckley Energy was the lowest bidder, this vendor did not comply with bid
submittal requests, therefore eliminating them as a viable option for selection.
The Community Development Division recommends that the biodiesel contract be awarded to
Dennis K. Burke Inc., Tauton, MA, for a period of twelve months expiring on June 30, 2020 with
the option to extend for (1) year at the same price. Dennis K. Burke is a responsive and
responsible company.
