Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance is for the option to establish one (1) Universal Term Contract to purchase Chevrolet OEM automotive parts for the Fleet Management Division. These Chevrolet OEM automotive parts are used by the Fleet Management Division to repair various Chevrolet vehicles. The term of the proposed option contract will be two (2) years, expiring March 31, 2014, with the option to renew for one (1) additional year. The Purchasing Office opened formal bids on March 1, 2012.
The Purchasing Office advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329.06 (Solicitation No. SA004271). Twenty-six (26) bids were solicited (M1A-1, F1-0, MBR-0). Two (2) bids were received. The solicitation requested catalog bids for Chevrolet OEM automotive parts.
The Purchasing Office is recommending award to the overall lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidder in compliance with the specifications.

Total Estimated Annual Expenditure: $100,000.00
