RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee to execute on behalf of the County, Contract #23–448-3 with Garda CL West, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $41,640, to provide armored transport services to Contra Costa Health Services Department, for the period from February 1, 2014 through January 31, 2016. This contract includes modified indemnification provisions.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Enterprise Fund I. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On May 5, 2009 the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-448 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #23-448-1 and #23-448-2) with Garda CL, Inc. for the provision of Armored Transport Services to Contra Costa Health Services Department including services to cover transporting cash, currencies, and other valuables to the designated depository, for the period from February 1, 2009 through January 31, 2014. Due to lengthy contract renewal negotiations, and delay in receiving Contractor’s updated pricing for armored transport services, the Division requested, and the Contractor agreed to continue providing services without disruption in service as a show of good faith. During negotiations, as one of the considerations of entering into Contract #23-448-3, the County and the Contractor have agreed to modify the County indemnification clause and the Special Conditions, therefore this board order is to inform the Board of Supervisors that this service contract requires the Board’s approval because of a deviation from the standard County Indemnification Clause.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, Health Services Department would not have access to Contractor’s services which may result in a period of suspended armored transport services while soliciting for new Contractor to provide services to Contra Costa Health Services Department.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
