SUBJECT
Title
Authorize a three-year service price agreement, with two one-year renewal options, for on-call solid waste hauling support for the Department of Sanitation Services - UMGA Logistics, Inc., only bidder - Estimated amount of $314,645.00 - Financing: Sanitation Operation Fund (subject to annual appropriations)
Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a service price agreement is to establish firm pricing for services, for a specific term, which are ordered on an as needed basis according to annual budgetary appropriations. The estimated amount is intended as guidance rather than a cap on spending under the agreement, so that actual need combined with the amount budgeted will determine the amount spent under this agreement
This service price agreement will provide for on-call solid waste hauling support for the Department of Sanitation Services (SAN). This is necessary to supplement hauling services between the City’s transfer stations and landfill or materials recovery facility. This service price agreement will allow SAN to ensure continuity of operations at the three transfer stations to protect the health and safety of the City.
As part of the solicitation process and in an effort to increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services used its procurement system to send out email notifications to vendors registered under relevant commodity codes. To further increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services uses historical solicitation information, the Internet, and vendor contact information obtained from user departments to contact additional vendors.
On November 10, 2015, the City Council authorized a living wage policy that requires contractors to pay their employees a “living wage” rate as established annually by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Living Wage Calculator for Dallas County by Resolution No. 15-2141. The calculated living wage during the solicitation process of this contract is $22.05; the selected vendor meets this requirement.
