RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute a program agreement and blanket purchase order with MyOfficeProducts, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000, for office supplies for the period from September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2018, with two additional one-year options to renew, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Office supply costs paid by County Departments. (100% County User Departments)

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County Purchasing Services is requesting approval of a program agreement and blanket purchase order to be used by County Departments for the ordering of office products and supplies. MyOfficeProducts, Inc., is one of two companies selected to provide products to the County. Prices are based on the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO), and Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA) agreement PA5738. A blanket purchase order covering all departments allows the County to consolidate purchases and maximize savings.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without a blanket purchase order, departments would select their own office supply vendors, increasing costs and duplicating effort.
