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 allow for the purchases of hand and power tools to be used citywide. Hand and power tools are used by City employees throughout the City during day-to-day operations and emergency situations to maintain and repair City facilities, equipment, and roads. Items purchased through this agreement include but are not limited to:
• Floor jacks
• Tool belts
• Drill bits
• Ladders
• Saws
• Hammers
• Wrenches
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.
