Ratification of an Emergency Purchase and Dollar Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Tires for the Materials and Supply Warehouse for Fleet Services and Mesa Fire and Medical Departments (Citywide) This contract primarily provides large tires for heavy-duty vehicles such as solid waste trucks and fire apparatus. Different brands of tires are required to meet the needs of varying vehicles and applications and to match existing tires on vehicles and equipment. Both Southern Tire Mart and Purcell are National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO)/State of Arizona cooperative vendors. NASPO is in the process of rebidding and negotiating the contract, without a definite timeline for award. This increase is necessary to cover departments’ needs until a new contract is in place. The emergency purchase was approved by the City Manager’s office as provided in the City Code during the Council break for the immediate preservation of public safety. The Business Services Department and Procurement Services recommend ratifying the emergency purchase using the contract with Southern Tire Mart, LLC (formerly Redburn Tire Company) and Purcell Tire Company (a Mesa business) at $234,000 and a dollar limit increase of $291,000, with a new upper limit at $1,075,000.
