STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT
Resolution authorizing the Purchasing Manager to issue a purchase order to 1. N. Curtis & Sons
in the amount of $55,61 0.53 for self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
BACKGROUND
SCBAs provide the user with breathable air regardless of the atmosphere. SCBAs give
respiratory protection in smoke, toxic fumes, and oxygen deficient environments. These
breathing apparatus have served the Fire Department well by providing respiratory protection for
employees to use in atmospheres that are immediately dangerous to life and health.
The Fire Department is requesting authorization to issue a purchase order to L.N. Curtis & Sons,
in the amount of $55,610.53 for SCBAs and parts. L.N. Curtis & Sons is the sole distributor of
Survivair equipment in the Southern California area.
Survivair is not the only manufacturer of breathing devices; however, Survivair is the exclusive
brand used by the Fire Department, making compatibility essential. All firefighters wear SCBAs
when entering a structure involved in fire. Because of the safety issues, it is critical to have all
SCBAs standardized. In addition, the National Institute for Occupation Safety and Health does
not allow for the integration of different brands of equipment, such as regulators, face masks, etc.
In accordance with purchasing procedures for "selective source", we recommend that 1.N. Curtis
& Sons be issued a purchase order for SCBAs and parts. Staff has evaluated the quote submitted
by L.N. Curtis & Sons and finds that it meets required specifications. The Metropolitan Medical
Response System (MMRS) contract allows the City to purchase SCBAs to meet department
needs and standardization.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total amount to be awarded to 1. N. Curtis & Sons is $55,610.53. The MMRS contract will
fund the purchase of the SCBAs and parts from account number 123-596-5704 ($43,897.67) and
123-596-5112 ($11,712.86).
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution.
