CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
Subject:
Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing
the execution of a new Agreement and issuance of an Annual Purchase Order in the
amount of $395,990 with four (4) one-year extensions at the City's option between the City
of San Bernardino and "V" Tire Sales for new and recapped tires, tubes and related repair
services for City vehicles and equipment, to be utilized by the Fleet Division.
Background:
The City purchases a variety of tires for use on Integrated Waste equipment, light vehicles,
certified pursuit tires for police vehicles, and off road equipment. Heavy-duty truck tires
may be recapped up to eight times before the tire carcass is worn out. Recapping involves
replacing the tread face of the tire. The use of recapped tires provides cost savings over
the use of new tires.
On July 8, 2008, the Finance Department notified the Fleet Division that this purchase
order needed to be bid and would not be renewed as a "selected source" as it has been
done in the past. An interim purchase order was issued for $24,990. On August 4, 2008,
the Mayor and Common Council approved Resolution 2008-311 authorizing an increase of
$65,000 to the interim purchase order for a total of $89,990.
On July 17, 2008, notices for bid # RFQ F-09-01 (Attachment "1" of Agreement) were sent
to twenty-five (25) vendors, twelve of which were local vendors, the San Bernardino Area
Chamber of Commerce, advertised on the City's Web Page and in the San Bernardino
County Sun Newspaper. No local vendors are able to supply the tires. The bid documents
requested unit pricing for new and recapped tires, tubes and related repair services, but
did not guarantee a total amount.
The vendor, business location, and price quote are listed below.
Vendor
"Y" Tire Sales
Daniels Tire Service
Location
Los Angeles
Riverside
Quote
$3,298.71*
$3,353.28*
* This total amount is the sum of 30 individual tire size prices (unit price) for equipment
serviced by the Fleet Division. Overall, the unit prices for "V" Tire Sales are lower than the
pricing for Daniels Tire Service. A complete bid summary sheet is attached (Attachment
"2" of Agreement). Since "V" Tire Sales submitted the lowest qualified bid, staff
recommends that Council authorize the execution of a new Agreement and issue an
Annual Purchase Order in the amount of $395,990 to "V" Tire Sales for new and recapped
tires, tubes and related repair services. Staff also recommends closing the interim
purchase order before the new purchase order is issued.
Financial Impact:
Funds for this purchase are available in the Fleet Division FV 08-09 Budget Account No.
635-341-5111, Materials & Supplies.
