<br /> <br />SHERRI BARNHARDT <br />PURCHASING AGENT <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Board of Commissioners <br />Sherri Barnhardt, Purchasing Agent/Contract Administrator <br />July 17, 2006 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />Request to implement new Fleet Fuel Card Program <br /> <br />I recently received information related to the current NC State Contract vendor <br />for the Fleet Fuel Program - Wright Express. Upon researching the <br />documentation and information, it has been determined there is a potential for <br />cost savings in the fuel purchases for Cabarrus County. <br /> <br />We have utilized ExxonMobil's Fleet Fuel Card Program for a minimum of eight <br />(8) years which allowed us to fuel at any ExxonMobil station in the country. <br />Cabarrus County has taken advantage of the tax exempt status with which we <br />purchase fuel and the rebate of $.05 per gallon during our time with <br />ExxonMobil's Fleet Fuel Card Program. <br /> <br />The same tax exempt status and advantages will be afforded to Cabarrus County <br />through the State Contract vendor - Wright Express. Also, with the Wright <br />Express program, we will have a wide variety of stations from which to choose <br />(i.e., ExxonMobil, Wilco/Hess, Petro Express, Amoco, Kangaroo Express, et al) <br /> <br />I respectfully request approval for this change and authorize the implementation <br />for Cabarrus County's Fleet Fuel Card Program. This change will allow County <br />employees more access to fuel and offer more competitive pricing. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br /> <br />Cabarrus County Finance Department <br />65 Church Street SE ; PO Box 707, Concord, NC 26026-0707 <br />Phone: 704-920-2884 Fax: 704-920-2881 . www.cabarruscounty.us <br /> <br />F-ID <br /> <br />
