The contract provides next-day, desktop-delivery of office and classroom supplies on an as-needed basis to various City of Mesa departments, valley school districts and other members of Strategic Alliance for Volume Expenditures (SAVE) purchasing cooperative. Approximately 103 agencies are currently utilizing Mesa's contract with WIST with a combined spend of over $7 million. Purchasing and WIST agreed on a six-month contract extension through March 31, 2015 to allow the City and the cooperative agencies to work on a new solicitation. The dollar increase is needed for the City's purchases through that period. Purchasing recommends authorizing a dollar-limit increase of $275,000 with WIST Office Products, increasing the contract from $800,000 to $1,075,000, for City of Mesa purchases, based on estimated requirements. *4-b 14-0835 Purchase of Thirty-Nine Replacement Police Patrol Chevrolet Tahoes for the Police Department (Citywide) Thirty-six of the vehicles being replaced have met established replacement criteria and will be retired and sold at auction. Three vehicles were damaged in vehicle accidents and will also be replaced. As of July 15, when the bid responses were due, Midway had inventory of (31) new 2014 Tahoes available subject to prior sale. It is Staff's intent and recommendation to purchase as many 2014 Tahoes that are available at the time of order. The potential cost savings is $64,772.72, including sales taxes. The award recommendation is based on the purchase of (39) 2015 models at $1,389,746.26. The total amount for the purchase will be less than the Council award if the 2014 vehicles are still available. Fleet Services, Police and Purchasing recommend authorizing purchase from the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder, Midway Chevrolet Nissan Isuzu, at $1,389,746.26. This purchase is funded by the Vehicle Replacement Fund. City of Mesa Page 3 Printed on 8/21/2014 City Council Meeting Agenda - Final August 25, 2014 *4-c 14-0834 Purchase of One Additional 911 Call-Taking Phone for the Regional Public Safety Dispatch Center for the Fire and Medical Department (Citywide) The purchase is necessary to meet the increased service demands being placed on the Mesa Fire and Medical Regional Dispatch Center (MRDC) as the MRDC becomes a fully functional Secondary Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP). The Intrado phone is the only product that is compatible with the other 911 phones in operation at the MRDC. Fire and Medical and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase using the State of Arizona cooperative contract with Intrado Corp., at $23,135.11. *4-d 14-0841 Two-Year Term Contract for Specialty Papers for the Print Shop as requested by the Business Services Department (Citywide) This contract will provide different types of papers to produce a variety of printed products for City Departments. Spicers Paper carries many of the brands of specialty papers that are compatible with the Print Shop's equipment and the needs of the requesting departments. Business Services and Purchasing recommend authorizing using the Maricopa County cooperative contract with Spicers Paper, at $40,000.00 annually, based on estimated requirements. *4-e 14-0844 Purchase of Replacement Front Load Refuse and Roll-Off Containers for the Solid Waste Management Department (Citywide) This purchase will provide (8) eight-yard front load refuse containers, (6) thirty-yard tub style roll-off front containers and (6) forty-yard tub style roll-off front containers for the City's commercial and residential customers. Solid Waste Management's existing inventory is nearing end-of-life and this purchase will establish a contract to replenish the department's inventory. Solid Waste Management and Purchasing recommend authorizing purchase from the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder, Wastebuilt, at $62,185.86. City of Mesa Page 4 Printed on 8/21/2014 City Council Meeting Agenda - Final August 25, 2014 *4-f 14-0838 Three-Year Term Contract for Emergency Electric Line Services for the Energy Resources Department (Citywide) This contract will provide standby/on-call emergency response electric line service crews to perform emergency repair work on the City's electric transmission and distribution facilities as directed by the Electric Utility Division. Repair work includes pole setting, hot line transfers, installing wire and cable and general line work. Energy Resources and Purchasing recommend awarding the contract to the lowest, responsive and responsible bidders, NPL Construction Co.

(Secondary Award,) at $270,771.00 annually, based on estimated requirements. *4-g 14-0799 Dollar-Limit Increase for the Purchase of Two Replacement Trailer Mounted Water Pumps for the Transportation Department (Citywide) The City ordered two trailer mounted water pumps with sound reduction packages for Transportation, Field Operations. Prior to Fleet Services installing the sound reduction and vandal packages rated at 72 decibels, Transportation and Fleet researched to see if additional sound reduction could be installed. Fleet determined that the manufacturer could provide an enhanced 69 decibel package for an additional cost. Transportation is requesting the increase to purchase the additional sound protection feature. Fleet is requesting that the existing pumps be exchanged for the enhanced sound reduction equipped units. The enhanced feature will ensure that when the units are operated overnight in neighborhoods they do not disturb the homeowners. Exchanging the pumps is less costly than re-awarding the agreement to the next lowest-priced bidder. Fleet Services, Transportation and Purchasing recommend authorizing a dollar-limit increase of $31,471.86 with Water Movers, Inc., increasing the contract amount from $71,850.27 to $103,322.13. The additional amount is funded by the Transportation department operating budget.
