| | | | | | | | Agenda Title:
Council action is requested to issue a purchase order to Precision Industries, Inc., for the remount of chassis on existing rescues-chassis to be purchased by the Fire Department, in the amount of $216,733.46. |
| | | | | | | | Recommendations:
Council approval to issue a purchase order to Precision Industries, Inc. for the remount of chassis on existing rescues-chassis for the Fire Department in the sum of $216,733.46. |
| | | | | | | | Background:
The purchase order, if approved, will be issued against the Houston-Galveston Area Council contract #FS12-19, which is a cooperative bid agreement available for use by all municipalities in the United States. The cooperative purchasing provisions of paragraph 5 of the Independence City Code allows for the purchase of items competitively bid by other governmental entities. Initial budget for FY22-23 was to do the purchase of the chassis and remounting through the vendor. However due to supply chain issues, it was determined that we would purchase the chassis separate and then contract for the remounting. Council approved the purchase of the chassis November of 2022.
Approval of this item authorizes the Finance Director to issue change orders up to a total of ten (10) percent of the original authorized amount, so long as appropriations are available.
