New Holland Construction was founded in 1895 in New Holland, Pennsylvania; in
1966 New Holland's first backhoe loader was introduced; in 2005 New Holland
Construction Brand was created with a global full -line product offering of Skid steer
loaders, compact track loaders, tractor loader backhoes, tractor loaders, wheel
loaders and excavators. Since 1999, New Holland is a brand of CNH, which was
demerged from Fiat Group to Fiat Industrial at the start of 2011.
2007 New Holland made 200,000 Skid Steer loaders and celebrated 35 years of

Productivity, safety, and environmental responsibility are the cornerstones of New
Holland's offering built around our customers. We are a key player in the global
construction equipment industry born of the rich heritage of brands that made the
history of this sector.
In partnership with our worldwide network of dealers, we deliver products and
services that meet our customers' requirements for productivity, safety, environmental
performance, and fuel and cost efficiency. We know our customers' business and
we provide them with a full line of innovative products and services designed for the
specific applications of their industry.
CNH Industrial is committed to delivering the highest ethical standards and
supporting its dealers and customers through a diverse and inclusive workforce,
industry -leading technology, exceptional safety and quality, and unmatched innovation
At CNH Industrial, we pride ourselves on delivering the best. That means

The full integration of environmental and social considerations with economic
objectives enables the Group to identify potential risks and seize additional
development opportunities, resulting in a process of continuous, and sustainable,
improvement that creates value over the long-term. We recognize the real
importance of promoting a circular product life cycle in which resources are used
fully and for as long as possible, and products and materials are recovered and
regenerated at the end of their service life. For this reason, the Company offers a
range of products able to run on fuels derived from renewable sources and is
committed to adopting sustainability criteria from the design stage to develop more
environmentally friendly products. To maximize product life, CNH Industrial also offers

its customers a range of remanufactured spare parts, in line with its circular
economy approach. In manufacturing processes, emphasis is given to improvements
that increase waste recovery and reuse.
Living and working in cooperation with the surrounding area, and collaborating on
projects that benefit the community, contribute to enhancing the satisfaction of
employees (who often live close to plants) and their sense of belonging to the
Company, while bringing economic advantages to both the Company and the
community. Projects are measured in three fundamental areas. These areas are:
Improving food availability, combating climate change & reducing environmental
impact and supporting youth training.
A key priority at CNH Industrial is to improve food availability. In the USA, CNH
Industrial supports the FFA (formerly known as Future Farmers of America), an
association active in farming education since 1928. In 2018, to further its
commitment, the Company chartered its own FFA Alumni and Supporters Chapter1,
through which employees can engage with students pursuing agriculture degrees and
with members of other FFA Chapters nationwide. In 2021, the Company continued
to be heavily involved with the FFA. Case IH, New Holland Agriculture, and CNH
Industrial Capital continued their Silver Sponsorship of the National FFA Foundation,
including its national convention with over 60,000 attendees. Furthermore, employees
continued to engage with FFA students at professional development events, and
again raised funds towards the purchase of approximately 70 FFA uniforms for
students in need.
CNH Industrial also continued its We Care We Share outreach program, holding an
educational event at the Thai Sa Kaeo College of Agriculture and Technology aimed
at raising agricultural technology standards in the country while creating a new
generation of agricultural experts.
In 2021, given the ongoing pandemic, CNH Industrial continued to support more
vulnerable sections of society, including through food where needed. Located near
the Company's sites in Racine (USA), the Hunger Task Force Farm yields over
226,000 kilos of fresh produce each harvest season to feed the hungry and create
a reliable source of healthy food for its network of food banks. In 2017, the farm
added a New Holland Agriculture tractor (donated by CNH Industrial Capital) to its
operation. In 2021, the Company made a cash donation to the organization to
purchase Thanksgiving turkeys for community members in need, while employees
provided additional support by volunteering on the farm.
A key priority at CNH Industrial is to combat climate change, whose negative
impact on ecosystems affects the quality of life for people in local communities and
consumer choices. The Company has initiated several projects to tackle this global
issue, which are also aligned with SDG 13 'Climate Action'. These projects are
increasingly focusing on reducing the environmental impact of Company plants,
including on local communities, and on helping protect the latter against the effects
of climate change such as desertification, water scarcity, and the loss of biodiversity.
Other initiatives are in place to promote responsible behavior to minimize
environmental impact. Participation in the projects associated with this key priority
allows CNH Industrial's brands to enhance their profile and increase their visibility
among potential customers and strengthens Company employees' sense of
belonging.
At CNH Industrial, a key priority is to engage local communities. To this end, and in
line with stakeholders' expectations, the Company prioritizes initiatives that support
local community development, especially youth training. In addition to the awards and
scholarships given to employees' children, the Company works hard to promote
young people's education by collaborating with private and public institutions and
other stakeholders. Projects are also aligned with SDG 10 'Reduce inequality within
and among countries', as they promote training in Emerging Markets with the aim of
developing qualified potential recruits for the Company's sales and service networks.
TechPro2, a joint project with schools run by the Don Bosco Salesian Society, aims
at training mechatronics specialists to meet a growing demand for skilled personnel,
thus offering young people greater employment opportunities — especially within the
Company's sales and service network. Training includes theory and hands-on
learning at Salesian centers, followed by targeted internships in the field. The goal
of TechPro2 is two -fold: on the one hand, to ensure students have a future vocation;
on the other, to enhance the quality of specialized technical assistance for the
brands' products while meeting the demand for qualified technicians at authorized
dealers and workshops. The Company provides expertise by training the teachers,
who pass on the knowledge to the classroom students. It also offers financial aid,
tools, and essential parts (such as complementary vehicles, engines, drives, and
diagnostic tools) for classroom training and practice.
CNH Industrial believes that operating in a socially responsible and ethical manner,

and in compliance with the laws of the countries in which it operates, is crucial to
its long-term success. The Company's Code of Conduct summarizes its policies on
various compliance and ethics issues (such as conflicts of interest, corruption,
competition, and health and safety). Such policies reflect, among other things, the
Company's commitment to adopting fair employment practices, ensuring safety in the
workplace, supporting, and fostering environmental awareness, and respecting the
communities in which it operates, in compliance with applicable laws. The Company
is also committed to the creation of long-term sustainable value for all its
stakeholders and is firmly convinced that respect for fundamental human rights and
for basic working conditions is a prerequisite to achieving this. The Board of
Directors is responsible for creating a culture that fosters such long-term value
creation — a task that requires compliance with all applicable laws. To this end, and
to clarify and make explicit the Company's values and expectations, the Board has
adopted both a Code of Conduct and a Supplier Code of Conduct.
Our vast network of CNHi dealers will provide local product technical support at the
dealership or out on the road to the members along with providing the start-up and
operations training compliant with OSHA regulations, which the members need to
get to receive the max. performance and efficiencies out of their products. The
customers can also purchase OEM parts from our dealer network to support the
members and to ensure their equipment obtains the max. amount of run time. Our
financial services to the members include leasing options and extended warranties
which are handled directly at the dealership. Members who are on a budget can
rent or demo equipment from the dealership. The equipment will be a unit that has
not been retailed and comes with full warranty (less than 250 hrs) or pro -rated
warranty (if the unit has over 250 hrs). The customer will receive the member list
discount and demo/lease adjustment based on rent for sale program rates less any
service or clean up fees dealer would have incurred.
When CNH Industrial is awarded the Sourcewell contract, we expect to continue to
achieve an overall sales growth of over 10%. Throughout the pandemic and
component parts not reaching our plants in a timely manner, we still saw growth in
our Sourcewell contract. We plan to continue this growth cycle in 2023. CNH
Industrial announce a culture transformation where everyone's voice will be heard.
We have five new beliefs Customer first, grow together, one team, make it simple,
be the best. This is exactly what we are planning to do with this contract. We want
our customers to walk into our dealerships and be heard. Get the product they want
and make it an effortless process with Sourcewell. We will continue to partner with
Government Solutions Team (GST) where we have done more training in 2022 and
plan to continue to follow that process in 2023. Their training includes web training,
ride -a -longs to help educate the sales teams and the customers in addition to
training new or re-train dealers within their first 60 days. Additional emphasis will go
to getting our dealers to attend GTKU's and universities to round out their
knowledge of the contract and how to use it to drive the contract's need. We are
also going to target and engage with the government entities to get our Sourcewell
contract adopted versus these entities having their own contract.
CNH Industrial reported strong full year performance in 2021, its final year of
operations as a combined Off- and On -Highway entity. We delivered consolidated
revenues of $33.5 billion, up 29% from the previous year. Both our adjusted EBIT
from our Industrial Activities at $2,086 million(1) and our full year Net Income at
$1.8 billion (which translates to $1.28 in earnings per share) were the highest in our
Company's history. Market driven volume and disciplined pricing were key drivers of
our record earnings, alongside the team's successful execution, which they achieved
while often managing very challenging supply chain and logistics issues. We also
recorded another very strong year for positive free cash flow of Industrial
Activities(1), at over $1.8 billion as our operational execution improved.

management system compliant with ISO 9001. As of December 31, 2021, 57 CNH
Industrial plants were ISO 9001 certified, collectively accounting for 98% of revenues
from sales of products manufactured at the Company's plants1. To achieve its
quality standards, CNH Industrial devised a robust supply chain management
process (see page 151) to ensure the procurement of quality components, which
are essential to produce vehicles that meet the high standards demanded by
customers. CNH INDUSTRIAL completed an initiative, known as Technology Days,
gives suppliers a chance to display their innovative products in terms of innovation,
technology, and quality, while addressing specific topics and sharing information on
recent technological developments. In 2021, the event was as always attended by
CNH Industrial employees but held virtually. As of December 31, 2021, 220 supplier
plants had adopted the World Class Manufacturing (WCM) program, with no
increase compared to 2020 due to pandemic -related restrictions and strategy
changes to the WCM supplier program itself. The WCM adoption process entails
several activities that take place in two distinct yet equally important phases, and
that are meant to provide suppliers with the necessary knowledge to apply the
intrinsic concepts of Lean Production. Firstly, various training sessions led by CNH
Industrial's WCM program specialists are delivered to suppliers. Secondly, supplier
WCM teams are given the opportunity to visit selected CNH Industrial plants to learn
about the Company's best practices.
Safety is a priority across the Company, as evidenced by the compliance of
management systems with the ISO 45001 international standard, as well as with the
continuous improvement principles of World Class Manufacturing (WCM) and its
specific Safety pillar (see page 165). CNH Industrial's approach to occupational
health and safety is based on effective preventive and protective measures,
implemented both collectively and individually, aimed at minimizing risk of injury in
the workplace. The Company endeavors to ensure optimal working conditions,
applying principles of industrial hygiene and ergonomics to managing processes at
an organizational and operational level. Additionally, it adopts the highest standards
in the countries in which it operates, even where regulatory requirements are less
stringent, believing this to be the best way to achieve excellence. In addition, the
central Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) function (which serves as a reference
point for sustainability) coordinates and manages health and safety issues as per
CNH Industrial's Health and Safety Policy. It periodically verifies performance against
targets, proposes new initiatives, and defines health and safety policies. The
Company's certification of its occupational health and safety management systems
as per the ISO 45001 international standard is voluntary and covers 58 CNH
Industrial manufacturing plants worldwide, accounting for 45,521 employees. In 2021,
the Company completed its transition to the new ISO 45001:2018 Occupational
Health and Safety Management standard, which supersedes the OHSAS 18001:2007
standard. Certifications are awarded by accredited international bodies (in turn
continuously and rigorously monitored by other international organizations) that review
and certify the high levels of reliability and of operational and procedural standards.
In 2021, the occupational health and safety management systems at some non -
manufacturing sites were ISO 45001 certified, accounting for 5,684 employees at 12
different sites and locations. In total, 70 CNH Industrial sites worldwide
(manufacturing and non -manufacturing) are now ISO 45001 compliant — covering
51,205 employees (about 75.9% of the employees within the reporting scope), 5,388

with Sourcewell and Canoe Procurement Group to provide marketing materials to the
dealers. This material is also used by the dealers for customer visits, shows and other
events where our brands and the contract are being promoted.

Describe your use of technology and
digital data (e.g., social media,

marketing effectiveness.
CNH Industrial incorporates several uses of technology, digital data, social media, and
data to drive market awareness, target prospective sales, train our teams and customers,
and perform community outreach. CNH Industrial has a dedicated website for our products
and services. New Holland's website allows prospects to build equipment to their
specifications, locate dealers and have direct contact information to each government
representative. Case Construction website allows prospective customers to locate dealers.
Our social media presence spans from Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Linkedln. We
follow, like and share Sourcewell media along with other industry leaders to promote a full
support system to our teams, dealers, and the community. By doing this, it keeps our
brands at the top of our prospects' minds. We also utilize data from the Association of
Equipment Manufactures (AEM) on governmental and non-profit sales. The data shows
sales activities and high -density sales areas. This also allows us to understand our
effectiveness in the marketplace compared to our competitors.
We also have a governmental bid service. By investing in this service it allows for an
advantage over our competitors and directs opportunities to the Sourcewell contract. This
also allows us to see the future requirements of a member so our dealers can reach out
and build a relationship with them and offer the Sourcewell as a solution to their bid
process.
We also conduct training and post videos online to reach a maximum audience and to
keep our teams "in the know" as soon as possible. We want to get the information out
quickly, so our members have the most current information. New Holland Construction
government sales managers along with GST work with our teams daily through these
trainings, videos, and emails to help them understand their market and the opportunities
that exist.

sales process?
The H2O conference is an excellent tool where vendors can come together and share
lessons learned, wins and best practices. When members contact Sourcewell, we expect
them to directly thank them, answer any questions they have, and provide our contract
information to the members. We would like our contract manager to follow up with an
email or call to us on who called and their contact information and what was needed.
This will allow us to continue the sales process by reaching out to them and showing
them, we have a team with Sourcewell and CNH Industrial.
We will continue to train our Territory Business Managers and dealers at our sectional and
regional CNH dealer and sales meetings on this contract. We will continue to educate our
dealers through webinars, phone calls and in -person training. When the contract is
awarded, we will be sending out a letter with the new matrix to our dealers letting them
know of the newly awarded contract. New Holland Construction will also be utilizing the
GST team to train our members on the contract. They have a novel approach on touch
points with the dealers during training. Our dealers are notified in several diverse ways
through mail, email, and phone calls which then leads up to training. The focus does not
stop after the training. GST continues to contact them after that process, so we do not
lose touch with them. GST provides our dealers with a listing of Sourcewell members
located in their area.
This contract is particularly important to each one of our brands and is highly expressed
to our CNH Industrial employees and dealers. Therefore, we have continued to grow the
contract even through the Covid period. We plan to stay the course and continue with our
message to our employees and dealers which is, "you should not have to bid for low
dollars or a product you do not want, use Sourcewell and get what you deserve."

kW electric motor — it features retractable tracks that get machine width down to about 31
inches for going through doors and working in confined spaces. It can also work close to
structures and obstacles with a minimum swing radius design. The 21.5 kWh lithium -ion
battery is charged either by the 110V/220V on -board charger, or via an external rapid
charger that can have the machine charged extremely fast, typically within 90 minutes.

Within the scope of Brands4Sustainability3, CNH Industrial supported a project called Capri
Circolare - A Sustainable Tourism Model, an in-depth analysis of potential areas of
intervention to position the island of Capri at the forefront of environmental sustainability. The
goal is to turn Capri into a green destination by developing a model that promotes a
circular economy and the implementation of good practices to protect the local region,
resources, and biodiversity. In Cordoba (Argentina), IVECO created an Ecological Island
where carpenters use recycled materials to make parts that are then used in various plant
production and logistics processes. In broad terms, the company applied the 5Rs of waste
management (refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, recover) to enable the reuse of approximately
4,800 kilos of reclaimed wood and around 3,600 kilos of corrugated plastic per year.
The Company also contributed to creating policies in support of alternative fuels — and a
circular economy — in the agriculture sector, particularly promoting the use of biomethane

standing member of the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), while
also holding a seat on its board, the Company has actively contributed to the debate on
EU (European Union) policies to lower CO2 emissions and achieve net -zero emissions in
the future. Moreover, with a seat on the association's Commercial Vehicles Board, IVECO
actively contributed to the discussions on how manufacturers can help achieve the EU's
2050 Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) goal, highlighting the role that both liquid and gas
renewable fuels can play in the transition towards net -zero CO2 emissions in transport. As
regards light -duty vehicles, IVECO is actively involved in the ongoing discussions and
advocacy activities regarding the revision of the post-2020 CO2 emission standard for cars
and vans.
CNH Industrial is also a member of the Committee for European Construction Equipment
(CECE) and of the European Agricultural Machinery Association (CEMA), trade associations
for construction equipment and agricultural machinery manufacturers, respectively. Throughout
2021, the Company collaborated with the associations' committees and project teams to
bring forward EU legislation on the safety and environmental aspects of off -road machinery.
Following the European Green Deal plan presented by the European Commission, CNH
Industrial contributed to further discussions within CECE's and CEMA's High -Level Groups
on CO2 concerning ways to reduce GHG emissions and decarbonize both the agriculture
and construction sectors in Europe.
CNH Industrial is also a board member of the European Association of Internal Combustion
Engine Manufacturers (EURO ). In 2021, particularly through its brand FPT Industrial, the
Company contributed to the association's activities centered on Non -Road Mobile Machinery
(NRMM) exhaust emissions, proposing the creation of a new working group within the
association focused on alternative powertrains and advanced energy resources. The aim
was to further promote alternative and more sustainable powertrain solutions within non -road
sectors as well (such as marine applications or mobile equipment) considering the EU's
most recent sustainability and climate goals. The Company holds a seat on the board of
the Natural & biogas Vehicle Association (NGVA Europe), which advocates and fosters the
use of natural gas and biomethane for transport in Europe. In 2021, in collaboration with
several other national associations for natural gas, IVECO and FPT Industrial promoted
debate in Europe on natural gas strategy (considering the EU's targets for 2030 and
beyond) and its advancement in Europe, in line with EU legislation on the development of
natural gas infrastructures.
CNH Industrial is member of the board of Hydrogen Europe, representing the hydrogen and
fuel cell industry, national associations, and research centers in Europe, and of the
Hydrogen Council, a global initiative among leading energy, transport, and industry
enterprises that focuses on the contribution and potential of hydrogen in the transport sector
while contributing to policymaking and the ongoing debate, working towards the future
commercialization of fuel cell vehicles. In this regard, the Company also participates in the
European Clean Hydrogen Alliance, an initiative by the European Commission and Hydrogen
Europe that brings investors together with governmental, institutional, and industrial partners,
aimed at steering and coordinating the ambitious plan to deploy hydrogen technologies by
2030, and at rapidly upscaling clean hydrogen production and use in Europe.
New Holland Agriculture was one of the main stakeholders at the event Seeding the Future
of Sustainable Farming: Advanced Farm Machines & Solutions to Deliver on the European
Green Deal, a summit organized by the European Agricultural Machinery Association
(CEMA) in Brussels (Belgium). The focus was on how digital farming tools, modern farm
machines, and farm data management systems will drive the European agriculture sector in
taking on the double challenge of producing sufficient quality food and safeguarding
biodiversity.
The importance of sustainable planning to the Company lies not only in time and cost
efficiencies, but also in emissions reduction, resource use, packaging management, and, not
least, in their indirect impact on human health and traffic congestion. To coordinate its
efforts effectively towards improvements in this area, CNH Industrial published its Green
Logistics Principles, available on the Company's website; intended to coordinate the
Company's initiatives on promoting sustainable behaviors, they help both corporate functions
and suppliers effectively monitor their performance and meet improvement targets.
In North America, the Agriculture and Construction segments continued to engage their
logistics partners in the SmartWay transport program. Launched in 2003, the program is
sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to improve efficiency, reduce
greenhouse gas, and air pollutant emissions along the transport chain. SmartWay provides
its partners with a set of EPA -tested tools that help make informed transportation choices,
measure, and report CO2 emissions, and improve supply chain efficiency and environmental
performance.

New Holland Construction Equipment:
equipment, products, and services that you
MEET YOUR CHALLENGES HEAD-ON
are offering in your proposal.
New Holland's ongoing commitment to making the most dependable and innovative
construction equipment brings you the 300 Series skid steer loaders. They provide
enhanced productivity, comfort and ease, while still delivering outstanding lift and
breakout force and rock -solid stability. Customize your machine for your specific
demands with a wide array of versatile attachments and options. The patented
Super Boom® vertical lift linkage delivers maximum reach at maximum height to
allow you to place loads precisely in the center of high -sided truck boxes or
hoppers. New Holland Tier 4 Final engines deliver powerful performance, use less
fuel and are easy to maintain to decrease your operating costs. The reliable
hydraulic system delivers fast cycle times. In -line hydraulic pumps produce less noise
and provide extra -smooth operation. Add the optional high -flow hydraulics to run
attachments hour after hour. The 300 Series dual -range transmission provides travel
speeds of more than 11 mph to save time on and between job sites. It is standard
on the L320, L321, L328, and L334. New Holland's long wheelbase gives you
stability and smooth riding comfort. A new available creep mode (EH models only)
gives you greater control for slow -speed operations like trenching.
New Holland's 300 Series loaders make your workday more productive and
comfortable with a compact track loader from New Holland. These 60 to 114 gross
HP loaders are tough models that deliver incomparable performance and
craftsmanship. Whether you are a farmer, contractor, or landscaper, the 300 Series
loaders are built to support you and your operation. They hold fast to steep slopes
and move easily through muddy or sandy terrain to complete jobs quickly and
efficiently.
New Holland's D Series loader backhoes represent a huge step forward in operator
comfort and productivity while delivering Tier 4 Final emission compliance without
compromise. A new cab design featuring 10% more space, new rear side windows,
vastly improved clearance when turning the seat for backhoe operation, and hugely
improved in -cab storage capacity guarantees an enhanced operator experience and
increased operator productivity. Many customers need a loader that offers the
versatility to do a lot more than just move bulk material, including grading and
leveling as well as grabbing heavy items like tree trunks and concrete pillars. They
also need a tractor unit offering the traction and power to push materials into place
or out of the way. With a 4-in-1 bucket, a D Series loader backhoe delivers
exceptional performance with just a single attachment. Choose a 6-in-1 bucket and
you have the option to flip down adjustable pallet forks for handling palletized loads
without a dedicated vehicle. The backhoe can be equipped with a wide choice of
buckets to match excavation, water -course clearance, trenching and other demands.
You can also fit post hole diggers, hydraulically extendable dipper and countless
other tools. The long, nearly 23-ft. reach of both the standard and telescopic dipper
allows digging depth comparable to many conventional dedicated excavators. Add
the new updated cab featuring a new heated seat and up to ten LED lights and
exterior side lights on the cab roof, and there are no performance compromises
with a New Holland D Series loader backhoe.
CLASS -LEADING POWER AT BUCKET AND HITCH
The U80D tractor loader from New Holland delivers 74 gross horsepower of clean
power with its Tier 4 Final certified engine. You get responsive power at both
bucket and hitch, so the U80D pays its way by loading, stacking, scraping and
leveling. Add the Glide Ride option, and the boom cylinders become the equivalent
of giant shock absorbers to stabilize the load while traveling. The curved -arm loader
linkage provided on the U80D tractor loader provides hydraulic bucket leveling for
less spillback, as well as excellent reach at maximum dump height for truck loading.
The unique reverse -mounted loader arm cylinders give you maximum bucket
breakout force and superior dump speed on the bucket. Rugged Class II three-point
hitch with controllable down pressure provides excellent scraping and leveling
performance. The synchromesh transmission with power shuttle gives you smooth
control and easy forward -reverse shuttling.
New Holland compact wheel loaders do more than load. With dependable engine
and hydraulic power and a choice of buckets and attachments, you can easily
scrape, grade, haul and more. Z-Bar linkage design provides maximum breakout
force, digging and lifting power for high -production load -and -carry applications. For
applications where self -leveling is needed, like forklift work, consider the W50C TC
Tool Carrier model. A stable compact design allows you to work and maneuver
easily in restricted spaces. A lower machine height and lower center of gravity
increases the stability of New Holland compact wheel loaders so you can lift and
move larger loads, travel smoothly and quickly, and operate with more confidence.

You can work next to buildings, foundations, and roads with greater confidence in a
New Holland Construction C Series compact excavators. They combine power,
performance, and versatility to make the very most of every minute of your day. C
Series excavators deliver big digging and grading performance with SAE bucket
breakout forces up to 8,490 Ibf and dig depth up to 12.5 feet. Their compact
design and zero/short tail swing mean you can dig, fill, and grade in the most
confined, congested areas. You can offset the excavator boom left or right within the
operating range to match the situation. The C Series also offers more ground
clearance and excellent dozer blade lift height for maneuvering and working in tough
conditions. With seven models from 1.7 to 6 tons, there is nothing small about the
performance of New Holland compact excavators. All models offer an increase in
horsepower compared to previous models, powered by quiet, fuel -efficient Tier 4
Final engines up to 66.9 horsepower. Ease and comfort equate with operator
productivity, so the wide C Series cab is designed for spaciousness, all-around
visibility, comfortable seating, and smooth control. New Holland's Auto Shift traveling
system automatically downshifts when load increases to enhance travel torque on
slopes and in difficult conditions, then shifts back up to secure a faster travel speed
after the load decreases. The Auto Idle system activates when you are not using
the operating levers to improve fuel efficiency.

the industry's best perspective of the job through large front and side windows, a
low entry threshold for greater visibility down to the bucket, a low sloping rear hood
and 360-degree lighting.
CASE backhoe loaders — extra power when you want it, precise control where you
need it and a sophisticated -yet -simple machine that needs less from you to get
more done, more quickly. When your backhoe legacy dates to the world's first fully
integrated production backhoe loader, you know they are expected to do everything.
So, you engineer them to be stronger and more responsive, roading, loading, or
digging. That is the Tier 4 Final N Series backhoe. Give your backhoe a shot in
the arm. At the push of a button, Power Boost provides a temporary surge of
power — up to 8% more breakout — without decreasing RPMs (Revolutions Per
Minute) so you can quickly muscle through obstacles and tough or frozen ground.
(Not available on 580N EP or 58ON backhoes).
The CASE 570N EP tractor loader combines unbeatable lifting strength, ground
speeds as fast as 24mph, and user-friendly features to provide contractors with a
skip loader that is impressively cost effective, and incredibly easy to own and
operate. It is available with a rear 540-RPM PTO (Power Take Off) or 3-point hitch,
as well as a hydraulic front quick coupler for optimal versatility. The CASE 570N
EP tractor loader has a full height lifting capacity of 6,503 LB., giving you more
than three tons of lifting strength to move, load and stock more piles, palettes, and
material. Loader arms have heavy-duty in -line parallel linkage with a solid thru-pin
design, dual bucket cylinders and a standard material retention feature to evenly
transfer bucket stress up and through full dump. It all works together to provide
faster cycles with less spillage.

The enhanced CASE G Series wheel loaders simplify operation through a
touchscreen display and give operators even greater control with adjustable electro-
hydraulic controls, optimized power modes and programmable configurable buttons
near the joystick. These buttons put your most common settings and functions mere
inches away from the joystick, further simplifying operation. All while delivering —
and improving — the power, productivity, and efficiency you already expect from
CASE G Series wheel loaders. Extreme fuel efficiency, lower engine operating
temperatures and a no DPF/no regen emissions solution are matched with features
designed to shorten cycle times, increase uptime, and make you even more
efficient. An optional, factory -integrated payload system drives greater accuracy and
loading efficiency in operations from quarries and job sites to feedlots and supply
yards — and makes the investment/deployment in a payload system entirely turnkey
(no separate financing/installation/etc.).
C Series motor graders expand the CASE lineup with well-equipped models ideally
suited for small -to -mid -size grading operations for municipalities, road maintenance
and general construction. Their SCR -only Tier 4 Final engine solution delivers fuel -
saving performance with minimal cost or maintenance from the operator and with
the product assurance of ProCare, ownership and upkeep has never been easier.
Models come standard with the productivity -boosting features operators want and are
available as standard drive or AWD, and as machine control -ready for integrating
into precision fleets. C Series graders deliver smooth, automatic shifting thanks to
an Ergopower transmission and torque converter. And with the hydraulic differential
lock and automatic power splitting, torque is instantly transferred from a slipping tire
to one with more traction, providing constant traction without throttle adjustment
necessary.
The CASE H Series rough terrain forklifts get it done smoother, easier, and faster.
With fast lifting speeds, roading speeds of up to 24 mph (38.6 km/h), lifting
capacities of up to 8,000 lbs. and a slew of unique features that keep loads level
and forklift operators comfortable, these high-performance, Tier 4 Final forklifts truly
do raise the bar. Rough terrain forklifts are designed for two things: lifting and
moving loads. We have engineered the H Series forklifts to be the best at both.
With lifting speeds of 107 feet per minute and roading speeds of 24 mph, you will
be able to raise, haul and place quicker to finish the job faster.
The all -new E Series excavators build on that legacy with seven new models -
including two new class sizes - designed from the ground up to revolutionize the
operator experience through laser focus on the things operators care about most:
reliability, cab comfort and performance. We give you a full line-up of solutions for
every size and type of jobsite, whether you are trenching in open fields or working
a single lane on the highway. And the growing list of OEM -fit machine control
technologies available throughout the new E Series lineup shows our commitment to
always delivering improved performance, precision, and profitability.
The CASE M Series dozers are among the most powerful and efficient — and now
even more precise with factory -fit machine control. This makes it easier than ever to
get into machine control and to experience its benefits: increased productivity,
improved performance, and reduced wear -and -tear on your dozer fleet. Match that
with industry leading power, extreme visibility to the work area, an intuitive operator
interface/experience, and the full support of CASE and its dealer network — and
CASE M Series Dozers will drive your success from heavy bulldozer work to fine
grading. It is all about the drawbar pull — and the tractive effort and related
pushing power it creates. CASE M Series dozers provide best -in -class drawbar pull
(varies by model), and a powerful and robust undercarriage with a variety of track
and extended life options to meet your pushing needs.

PROPOSER AFFIDAVIT AND ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE
I certify that I am the authorized representative of the Proposer submitting the foregoing Proposal with the legal authority to bind the
Proposer to this Affidavit and Assurance of Compliance:
1. The Proposer is submitting this Proposal under its full and complete legal name, and the Proposer legally exists in good standing in
the jurisdiction of its residence.
2. The Proposer warrants that the information provided in this Proposal is true, correct, and reliable for purposes of evaluation for
contract award.
3. The Proposer, including any person assisting with the creation of this Proposal, has arrived at this Proposal independently and the
Proposal has been created without colluding with any other person, company, or parties that have or will submit a proposal under
this solicitation; and the Proposal has in all respects been created fairly without any fraud or dishonesty. The Proposer has not
directly or indirectly entered into any agreement or arrangement with any person or business in an effort to influence any part of
this solicitation or operations of a resulting contract; and the Proposer has not taken any action in restraint of free trade or
competitiveness in connection with this solicitation. Additionally, if Proposer has worked with a consultant on the Proposal, the
consultant (an individual or a company) has not assisted any other entity that has submitted or will submit a proposal for this
solicitation.
4. To the best of its knowledge and belief, and except as otherwise disclosed in the Proposal, there are no relevant facts or
circumstances which could give rise to an organizational conflict of interest. An organizational conflict of interest exists when a
vendor has an unfair competitive advantage or the vendor's objectivity in performing the contract is, or might be, impaired.
5. The contents of the Proposal have not been communicated by the Proposer or its employees or agents to any person not an
employee or legally authorized agent of the Proposer and will not be communicated to any such persons prior to Due Date of this
solicitation.

Section 13.37 permits only certain narrowly defined data to be considered a "trade secret," and thus nonpublic data under
Minnesota's Data Practices Act.

City of Fort Worth, Texas
Mayor and Council Communication
DATE: 06/13/23 M&C FILE NUMBER: M&C 23-0450
LOG NAME: 13P BLANKET COOPERATIVE AUTHORIZATION FLEET ACQUISITIONS ADK
SUBJECT
(ALL) Authorize Purchase Agreements with Multiple Vendors for the Purchase of Fleet Vehicles, Off -Road Vehicles, and Other Motorized
Equipment up to the Amount of Available Funding in Capital Projects Across Multiple Funds Citywide using Multiple Cooperative Contracts and
Interlocal Agreements for Three Years for the Property Management Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of purchase agreements with multiple vendors for the purchase of fleet vehicles, off
road vehicles, and other motorized equipment up to the amount of available funding in Capital Projects Across Multiple Funds Citywide using
multiple cooperative contracts and interlocal agreements for three years for the Property Management Department.
DISCUSSION:
The Property Management Department's Fleet Acquisitions Division is currently in the process of fulfilling a multi -year backlog of City vehicle and
equipment purchases. The biggest challenge in trying to overcome this backlog is the availability of vendors, inventory, and the time it takes for the
City to make purchases when vehicles are available. Currently, the City has a backlog of eight (8) years totaling more than $30 million dollars.
The City currently has contracts with the following vendors using cooperative contracts:

�Siddons Martin Emergency Group, LLC
�JIIouston Holdings, LLC

Lake Country Chevrolet

However, due to limited inventory and availability, additional vendors and options are needed. Fleet Acquisitions has already identified twenty-nine
additional vendors that are available through cooperatives.
Approval of this Mayor & Council Communication (M&C) authorizes the City to execute contracts with any vendor that is currently listed on any valid
cooperative that has one or more vehicles or pieces of equipment that is a current need for the City's fleet. This authorization would also include
purchases made using Interlocal Agreements with other governmental entities.
Fleet Acquisitions recently partnered with the Purchasing Division in an effort to better ensure that the City is able to purchase needed items as
quickly and efficiently as possible. The Fleet team meets regularly with key personnel to ensure that specifications are appropriate for the City's
fleet, costs are reasonable and acceptable, and that departments are receiving items that meet their business needs.
COOPERATIVE PURCHASE and INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS - State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under a
cooperative purchasing agreement or interlocal agreement satisfies state laws requiring that the local government seek competitive bids for
purchase of the item.
AGREEMENT TERMS - Upon City Council approval of this M&C, the City will have authority to enter into one-time purchase agreements or annual
agreements with available vendors for up to three years from the date of approval. At the expiration of three years from the date of approval, the
City will seek additional authorization for any necessary contracts at that time.
BUSINESS EQUITY - an M/WBE goal is not assigned when purchasing from an approved purchasing cooperative or other public entity
FUNDING - Currently, there is $42,593,019.00 in the City's budget in capital projects across multiple funds citywide for the purpose of funding fleet
acquisitions. Prior to each purchase agreement or contract being executed, staff will confirm that funding is available for that purchase and is
appropriated for that purpose. All existing contracts shall be amended or terminated to release encumbered funds to ensure that the City is able to
make purchases with the vendors that have needed items available for purchase on a rolling basis. No guarantee has been or will be made to any
vendor regarding minimum purchases.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital budgets, as previously appropriated, in the Vehicle and
Equip Replacement Fund, W&S Capital Projects Fund, Stormwater Capital Projects Fund, Municipal Airport Capital Proj Fund, Solid Waste
Capital Projects Fund, CCPD Capital Projects Fund, ITS Capital Fund, Fleet Capital Projects Fund, Environmental Prot Cap Proj Fund, Tax Note
2019 Fund and Tax Note 2020 Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation for the purchase of vehicles and equipment. Prior to
any expenditures being incurred, the Property Management Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
