RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, an amendment to the Participating Addendum and blanket purchase order with W.W. Grainger, Inc., to extend the termination date from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2023, with no change to the payment limit or remaining terms, for supplies, parts and equipment required by County departments.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact as this action is only to extend the term. Product costs are paid by County Departments.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Purchasing Services is requesting an extension of County Wide purchase order # 023999 issued to WW Grainger, Inc., to continue to purchase Maintenance, Repair and Operating Supplies under the OMNIA Cooperative Agreement with guaranteed pricing, tiered rebate incentives, discounts on thousands of products and no minimum purchase requirements.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without approval of the extension to PO 023999, County Departments will pay full price on the products they order today, with no purchasing incentives or rebates back to the County’s General Fund.
