RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Interim Public Works Director, a purchase order with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (Goodyear), in an amount not to exceed $185,000, for Goodyear tires, for the period of January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This cost is to be funded through Fleet ISF budget. (100% Fleet Internal Service Fund)

BACKGROUND:

Fleet Services is responsible for vehicle maintenance. Tires are an important commodity for this maintenance. Goodyear tires have been established as the County’s standard. Goodyear tires can be purchased through any Goodyear dealer at government prices. Goodyear has also been awarded National Joint Purchasing Alliance contract # 041712-GTC for the purchase of Goodyear tires by government agencies. Goodyear Tire & Rubber in Benicia is the local Goodyear warehouse. Fleet Services uses Goodyear and East Bay Tire in Pittsburg for their tire needs. Fleet Services is requesting this purchase order be approved for a period covering the next 12 months.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, Goodyear tires will not be purchased at government pricing.
