Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify an existing Universal Term Contract (UTC) for the option to obtain Automotive Preventative Maintenance Services with Valvoline, LLC, CC#019406, expires 6/6/24. This contract provides for preventative maintenance services such as oil changes, filter replacements, checking and filing of fluid levels, and visual inspections for use city-wide. This modification is necessary to add two additional services (diesel full synthetic oil change and premium oil filters for Ford hybrid vehicles) and to modify the contract to allow for additional services and their related costs to be added when deemed by Division of Fleet Management to be necessary and appropriate. The contract, PO238448 was established in accordance with Request for Quotation RFQ015506 and will expire September 30, 2023.
No additional funds are necessary to modify the option contract as requested. The additional services being procured is within the scope and intention of the contract, but no allowance was made in the original contract specifications to add additional items when deemed necessary. The original contract was formally bid. The original terms and conditions will remain in effect; however the ability to add additional services as deemed necessary provide greater flexibility in maintaining the fleet of City vehicles.
EMERGENCY DESIGNATION: The Finance and Management Department respectfully requests this legislation be considered an emergency because the additions are immediately needed for vehicle maintenance.
FISCAL IMPACT: No funding is required to modify the option contract. Other agencies must set aside their own funding for their estimated expenditures.
