Supplies will include but not be limited to gaskets, tees, bolts, washers, ball valves, fittings, connectors, conduit, brackets, latches, welding supplies, couplings, padlocks, and tools such as hammers, pliers and shovels. Business Services and Procurement Services recommend awarding the contract to the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidders, Best Plumbing Specialties, Inc., Border States Industries, Inc. dba Border States - Border States Electric - Advance Electrical Supply, Copper State Bolt & Nut Co., Elliott Electric Supply (a Mesa business), Ferguson Enterprises, LLC dba Ferguson Waterworks, K&K Heating and Air, Rexel USA, Sid Tool Co., Inc. dba MSC Industrial Supply Co.

- 5-c Use of a Cooperative Contract for the Purchase of 165 Panasonic Toughbook Computers (Replacements) for the Department of Innovation and Technology (Citywide) Computer devices are typically replaced on a 5-year cycle (Cycle Replacement Program). This contract will be used to purchase Panasonic Toughbook computers for the Mesa Fire and Medical Department and Mesa Police Department as part of their scheduled cycle replacement. These devices are specifically engineered for rugged field conditions - capable of withstanding vehicle mounting, vibration, heat, and occasional drops - making them more reliable than standard laptops in public safety and field environments. Staff was able to find these devices at approximately $400 less per unit than the price available through the previous contract, resulting in savings of approximately $66,000. The Department of Innovation and Technology and Procurement Services recommend authorizing the purchase using the State of Arizona cooperative contract with Mobile Concepts Technology, in an amount not to exceed $737,700, based on estimated requirements.
- 5-d One-Time Dollar Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Stadium Lighting, Lighting Control Systems Equipment for the Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities Department (Citywide) This contract provides for the purchase and installation of stadium lighting and lighting control systems equipment from Musco Sports Lighting, LLC. This one-time dollar limit increase is needed to cover the necessary upgrades to the Baseball facilities at Hohokam Stadium and Fitch Park. The lighting at these facilities has reached the end of its useful life, relies on outdated fixtures and bulbs that do not illuminate the playing fields as effectively as current technology, and no longer meets the requirements for Major League Baseball and NCAA Baseball. All light fixtures from the older hood-style units will be replaced with newer LED fixtures in addition to installation of new lighting control systems to operate and program the lights. The Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities Department and Procurement Services recommend increasing the dollar limit with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC by $884,050, from $2,500,000 to $3,384,050, through 10/15/2026.
- 5-e One-Time Dollar Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Video Display/Scoreboard Maintenance and Repairs for the Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities Department (Citywide) This contract is for the service, maintenance, and repair of the Daktronics electronic scoreboards at Hohokam Stadium and Sloan Park that are used for Major League Baseball programs with the Athletics and Chicago Cubs. This one-time dollar limit increase is needed to cover the necessary upgrades to the Scoreboard at Hohokam Stadium and installation of a ribbon board. The scoreboard at this facility has reached the end of its useful life and does not support upgraded technology that allows for more dynamic programming. Upgrades will include the video scoreboard and installation of a ribbon board on the main structure facing the grass seating area, to provide better in-game experience and viewing angle for outfield seats. The 2013 Facility Use Agreement between the City and the Athletics requires the City to maintain and upgrade the scoreboard at defined intervals. The Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities Department and Procurement Services recommend increasing the dollar limit with Daktronics Inc. by $1,737,250 from $1,500,000 to $3,237,250, through 5/25/2026.
- 5-f Use of a Cooperative Contract for the Purchase of One Paint Striping Truck (Addition) for the Fleet Services and Transportation Departments (Citywide) The Transportation Department requires an additional paint striping truck to meet the increasing workload demands and ensure operational continuity. Having a second unit provides the necessary spare ratio, allowing work to continue uninterrupted when one truck is undergoing maintenance. The paint striping truck is a specialized vehicle designed to apply consistent, durable lane markings on City streets, pathways, and parking areas. The Fleet Services and Transportation Departments and Procurement Services recommend authorizing the purchase using the Sourcewell cooperative contract with MB Companies, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $293,942, based on estimated requirements.
