SUBJECT
Title

*In alignment with Dallas Love Field Master Plan.
Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a master agreement is to establish firm pricing for goods, 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 master agreement will provide for the purchase of F3 foam for the Department of Aviation. This purchase will be used for fire extinguishment for the Dallas Love Field terminal when responding to incidents involving aircraft, such as crashes and fires. This product will be utilized in the new fire engines at the Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting station being built in 2026.
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.
