Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into a contract with Public Safety Concepts, LLC for the purchase of accessories/parts and the installation of those accessories/parts on six (6) 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe Police Pursuit Vehicles. Four of the vehicles are canine units and the remaining two are for Police supervisors. Formal bids (SA003593) were received by the Purchasing Office on June 3, 2010 for the purchase of accessories/parts to up fit six Chevrolet Tahoes for the Division of Police as follows:


Statewide Emergency Products, LLC (Majority) $55,360.00
On Duty Equipment (Female) $68,040.00
K. E. Rose Co. (Majority) $57,940.00
Public Safety Concepts, LLC (Majority) $57,288.00


Section 6.1 of the bid specifications could not be met by any of the bidders, but the goal of this specification was to have a vendor with a facility in the county or a contiguous county in order to conduct repairs and warranty work. The second lowest bidder, Public Safety Concepts, LLC meets this goal; therefore the Division of Police recommends to award the bid to Public Safety Concepts, LLC in the total amount of $57,288.00.



This company is not debarred according to the Federal excluded parties listing or prohibited from being awarded a contract according to the Auditor of State unresolved findings for recovery certified search.

Contract Compliance: Public Safety Concepts, LLC, 260729988 expires 7/12/12

Emergency Designation: Emergency action is necessary so that the contracts for the accessories/parts can be issued as soon as possible in order to have the equipment available to install into the new Police Pursuit Vehicles that have been delivered.
