The Department requests authorization to execute an amendment #2 to increase the payment limit of purchase order #F017752 with Ray A. Morgan Company, LLC. This vendor will provide additional valuable multifunction copier services, maintenance, and supplies for the Employment and Human Services Department’s 150+ copier devices. This vendor was selected as a result of the competitive bid process held by Contra Costa County Public Works on behalf of all County departments, and coincides with the Master agreement approved by the Board of Supervisors on July 23, 2019 (C.44). The purpose of the initial board order, approved on July 23, 2019, was to provide funding to purchase order #F017752 with Ray A. Morgan Company, LLC. In 2019, Public Works evaluated a number of alternatives related to copier/multifunction device rentals and managed print services utilizing a competitive bid process in an effort to reduce costs, improve management, improve reliability, and enhance overall service. As a result of that evaluation, Public Works selected Ray A. Morgan as one the County’s preferred Vendors.
The terms of the Master agreement, as previously amended, will be incorporated by reference in the purchase order, and those terms will govern over any conflicting terms of the purchase order.
Amendment #1 to purchase order #F017752 with Ray A. Morgan Company, LLC was approved by the Board of Supervisors on January 11, 2022 (C.74).

This board order for Amendment #2 will add additional funding in the amount of $540,000 to the purchase order for additional multifunction copier services and supplies. There is no change to the term of December 23, 2019 through December 22, 2022.
