RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Employment and Human Services Director, a purchase order amendment with Sharp Business Systems, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $65,000 to a new payment of $229,000 and extend the contract term one year for the continued lease of copiers for the period July 20, 2015 through July 19, 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The purchase order is funded by administrative overhead which allocates to 10% County, 48% State, and 42% Federal funding.
BACKGROUND:
Extension of existing Purchase Order (PO #56569) for an additional year and increase the total payment limit with Sharp Business Systems, Inc. to take advantage of a 30% discount on lease costs.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without funding, copier lease would expire for non-payment.
