SUBJECT
Title
Authorize a three-year service price agreement for the rental, cleaning and delivery of spring drinking water and dispensers - Blue Triton Brands Inc., lowest responsible bidder of three - Not to exceed $38,815.56 - Financing: General 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 agreement will provide for the rental of hot and cold-water dispensers and the provision of water delivery/dispenser cleaning services to various Dallas Park & Recreation Department locations throughout the City.
The scope of work for this service will include regular delivery/pick-up of 5-gallon containers of spring drinking water, rental of hot & cold-water dispensers and a water dispenser cleaning service.
The service agreement will ensure that Dallas Park & Recreation Department staff and patrons have access to clean spring drinking water. The intent of the Drinking Spring Water Delivery Service for the Park & Recreation Department is to procure water container and dispensers for select service locations (see Exhibit A) that do not have adequate drinking water that is plumbed into the facilities. The plumbing at these locations has aged which limits sanitary quality of water to the drinking fountains. These services will also cut down on the number of bottled-water, purchased for field office staff and eliminates the need to heat up or cool down, clean drinking water.
