Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify an existing Universal Term Contract (UTC) for the option to purchase Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) parts and equipment with Scott Safety by providing a 3-year extension, at the same terms and conditions of Contract# PO019673, as agreed by both parties. The contract, PO019673 was established in accordance with Request for Quotation SA005773 and will expire 3/31/2019.
A contract modification will provide a 3-year extension of the existing contract from the date of execution to March 31, 2022. The equipment, parts and repair of the City’s current Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) equipment is being serviced by Scott Safety. The contract modification and extension will allow time needed to process a new Request for Proposal and award a UTC for Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) without disruption of services.
Emergency Designation: The Finance and Management Department respectfully requests this legislation to be considered an emergency ordinance because the current contracts expire 3/31/2019.
Fiscal Impact: No funding is required to modify and extend the contract. Fire Division must set aside their own funding for their estimated expenditures.
