Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City Treasurer and other city agencies require armored car services to pick up and deliver deposits on a daily basis. While ordinance 0890-2017 passed on April 17, 2017 authorizing the City Treasurer’s Office to modify its contract for armored car services, under the existent contract, services are unable to be continued by the vendor. As a result, the City Treasurer’s Office sought quotes from three armored car carriers; two carriers responded. As a result of the informal bid process, a waiver of competitive bidding is required.
The Treasurer’s Office wishes to enter into contract with Dunbar Armored, Inc. for the period August 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018 to provide armored car services to the city. During this time, the City Treasurer’s Office intends to develop an RFP in consultation with the Department of Finance and Management, Purchasing Office that will be used as the basis of a universal term contract for all city agencies.
This ordinance is being submitted as an emergency because, without emergency action, safe and secure deliveries of the city’s deposits will be interrupted.
Contract Compliance: Dunbar Armored, Inc. 520675776 expiration 6/26/19
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for these services is budgeted and available in various agencies’ 2017 appropriations throughout the city.
