DISCUSSION: The Department of Environmental Management requested proposals for collection and recycling of mixed office paper from city facilities on October 2 and 9, 2003. Proposal packages were received on October 30, 2003 from five firms. The proposals were evaluated based on a pre-determined combination of qualitative and quantitative (bid point) measures. These measures included the evaluation of such factors as experience, capabilities and revenue rebate/associated costs. Based on the total point distribution of the measures, staff recommended the contract be awarded to Century Disposal, Inc., a M/WBE firm. The new in-house recycling program began in January 2004. In January 1993, when the City of Fort Worth launched an in-house paper recycling program called "Almost Anything That Tears" there were eighteen (18) facilities participating. Currently, the contractor collects mixed office paper for recycling at 45 city facilities. More than 4,000 city employees now participate in the program. Under the current contract, which began January 1, 2004, Century guarantees a cost of $67.00 per ton throughout the term of the contract. The original not-to-exceed amount was set at $24,924.00 per year based on 31 tons of paper per month which was a 50 percent increase over the amount historically collected in the past. The response to this new program has exceeded all expectations. Over the last three months, city facilities have averaged more than 59 tons per month. The new not-to-exceed amount of $48,240 is based on collection of 60 tons per month. The initial contract term is for the period January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2006 with the option to renew for two three-year renewal periods. Renewal may be affected by notice in writing by the City Manager or his designated representative to the contractor within thirty days of the expiration of the prior term and does not require specific City Council approval, provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term. M/WBE - A waiver of the M/WBE goal for this amendment was requested and approved by the MNVBE office, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting opportunities are negligible.
