Question:
Would Council consider a posi track loader of another brand but with the same specifications? We have available a Caterpillar 255 posi track with a grader blade attachment (GB124 with wings)

Answered on 10/Mar/2025 09:30 AM:


The Schibeci Stabiliser attachment we are using requires very high hydraulic flow rates as well as good cooling capacity.

From our understanding the CAT 255 will not provide adequate capacity.

Question:
Hi does the grader attachment require GPS or any sort of level control or will it be tying in with existing surface?

Answered on 10/Mar/2025 10:10 AM:


Hi, no GPS will be required for the Grader attachment, as it will be matching with existing surface.

Question:
Good morning,

We have a few queries regarding the above Request for Quote on the ASV Track/Loader Skid Steer.



On the RFQ there is a rate required for

Operating Rate 1

Operating Rate 2

Could you please clarify the difference.



Would the rate for the operator not be included in Rate # and # 2 ?

Is the operator rate in addition to the Operating Rate # 1 & 2 or just for an operator only.



Regarding Establishment/ Transport cost. Is it a requirement that the contractor be responsible to move the plant and equipment from each site to the next ?

If so then the only rate that can be submitted as an hourly rate, is this correct ?

Good morning,

For all information on the Pricing Schedule breakdown of rate inclusions please refer to page 13, 14 & 15 of the 'SOA T's&C's' document attached.

Summary:

Operator Rate - Is to cover the cost of operator wages when attending inductions and site meetings.

Operating Rate 1 - Hourly rate to include the Contractor plant/equipment, operator, maintenance, servicing (incl oil, grease, ground engaging tools, and other consumables), fuel and PPE.

Operating Rate 2 - Hourly rate to include all of the above, however this rate is also to include the supply of accommodation, site fees and meals. (This rate only applies when outside of a 75km radius from the Contractor's nominated depot. The Contractor will be required to make their own accommodation and meal arrangements).

Establishment & Disestablishment - Yes that is correct - Rates per hour are to be provided. The Principal will pay the Contractor to establish at the commencement of each engagement and disestablish at the end of each engagement from their nominated depot. NOTE: the Principal will not pay for daily travel cost for the Contractor from their nominated depot or place of accommodation.

Question:
Just wanted to clarify the below statement from RFQ;

"RoadTek will be hiring the Stabiliser attachment for the duration of the trial. RoadTek will be maintaining the stabiliser in accordance with the Manufacturers' specifications."

So we do not allow pricing to supply or maintain or transport this attachment? This is the full responsibility of Roadtek?

Thankyou

Hi Graham,

That is correct, the attachment is the full responsibility of RoadTek.
