Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City Treasurer and other city agencies require armored car services to pick up and deliver deposits on a daily basis. On May 3, 2013 a request for quotation SA004947 for armored car services was issued by the City Treasurer's Office which advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329.06. Seven (7) bids were solicited; one (1) bid was received. The bid pricing was based on specifications that included a schedule of pickups and deliveries for four city agencies and the Municipal Court Clerk’s Office. The schedule originally requested by the Municipal Court Clerk was changed after the bid was received. As a result, a waiver of competitive bidding was required. The Treasurer’s Office awarded the contract for armored car services to Brink’s, Inc. for a period of one year, beginning August 1, 2013 through July 31, 2014 with options for renewal of four one-year periods which was passed by Columbus City Council on July 1, 2013 ordinance number 1453-2013.
Ordinance number 0906-2014 was passed by Columbus City Council on May 5, 2014 authorizing the first year of the four one-year renewal options. The Treasurer’s Office now wishes to modify and extend its contract for the second year of the four one-year renewal options and to continue providing services for the pickup of coin at the city’s pools.
Contract Compliance: Brink's, Incorporated, 362478302, expires May 29, 2015
This ordinance is being submitted as an emergency because, without emergency action, safe and secure deliveries of the city’s deposits will be interrupted.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for these services is budgeted and available in various agencies throughout the city.
