RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and Authorize the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the Public Works Director, a blanket purchase order with Veritiv/Xpedx in an amount not to exceed $250,000.00 to procure carbonless paper, various paper items including large format poster paper for the Print and Mail Services Division for the period June 1, 2016 through May 31, 2018. (100% Department user Fees)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Costs are recovered through charge outs to County departments. (100% Department User Fees)

BACKGROUND:

Veritiv/Xpedx carbonless paper and various paper items including large format poster paper are purchased in volume and are used by the County departments and the Print and Mail Division for the printing of forms and copies. County departments also place orders for blank carbonless paper for their laser printers through Print and Mail Services. The cost of the paper is charged back to the County departments. This allows the County to purchase in bulk.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request is not approved, costs for paper will increase.
