RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the Public Works Director, a purchase order amendment with East Bay Tire Company, to increase the payment limit by $70,000 to a new payment limit of $280,000, with no change to the original term of September 1, 2015 through August 31, 2018, for tires and tire supplies, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This cost is to be funded through the Fleet Services 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 Tire & Rubber in Benicia is Fleet’s primary vendor. In addition to them, Fleet Services uses East Bay Tire Company as an alternate Goodyear Tire dealer. East Bay Tire Company’s location in Pittsburg establishes them as a local business enterprise. The funds for East Bay Tire Company’s purchase order have been exhausted and are in need of an increase.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order amendment is not approved, tires and tire supplies will not be purchased at government pricing.
