RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the Public Works Director, a purchase order with Walnut Creek Ford in an amount not to exceed $160,000 for Ford vehicle parts, service and repair, for the period of February 1, 2016 through January 31, 2017, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Fleet Services Internal Service Fund

BACKGROUND:

Public Works Fleet Services is responsible for maintaining County vehicles. To do so, Fleet Services purchases parts, accessories and warranty services from local auto dealers. As the fleet is mostly Ford vehicles, we buy a substantial amount from Ford dealers. As bid on Bidsync #1112-004, four local Ford dealers were awarded this commodity, with Walnut Creek Ford being the primary. The original bid duration was one (1) year with four (4) possible one (1) year extensions. This request represents the fourth of the one year extensions.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, the purchase of Ford parts, accessories and warranty services will discontinue.
