RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent or designee to execute, on behalf of the Public Works Director, a blanket purchase order with JC Paper Company in the amount of $399,990 for paper products and printing related items for the period July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2017, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of paper is initially charged to the General Fund, but recovered through charges to County departments. Print and Mail Services is a zero-net County cost operation. (100% Department User Fees)

BACKGROUND:

Carbonless paper and recycled copy paper is purchased in volume and used by County departments and the Print and Mail Services Division for printing of forms and copies. Departments also place orders for blank recycled paper through Print and Mail. The cost of the paper is charged back to the departments. This allows the County to purchase in bulk at lower prices.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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