DISCUSSION: In July 2020, the City Manager's Office authorized a sole source agreement with SharpLogixx, LLC for an annual amount up to $63,975.00 for original equipment manufacturer (OEM), SharpLogixx, for equipment, replacement parts, and maintenance on x-ray equipment to support the Fire Department Arson Bomb Team. This agreement was renewed, amended to include non -warranty repairs, and the annual amount increased by twenty percent in March through the execution of Amendment No. 1. In 2021, the Fire Department determined that additional funding is needed due to the need for additional x-ray units and increases in the number of parts and services needed. An increase to the agreement will continue the Fire Department's ability to preserve and protect the public health and/or safety of the City of Fort Worth's residents. Staff recommends amending the sole source agreement to add an additional $123,230.00 for the Fire Department for a new annual amount of $200,000.00. SharpLogixx, LLC is the documented sole source for OEM, SharpLogixx, for equipment, replacement parts, and maintenance. M/WBE OFFICE - SharpLogixx, LLC is the documented sole source vendor for these supplies, replacement parts and maintenance. A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Department and approved by the Business Equity Division, in accordance with the BIDE Ordinance, because the MBE/SBE is based on the sole -source information provided to the Business Equity Division by the managing Department's project manager. This project is located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital budget, as previously appropriated, in the Grants Operating Federal Fund for the 2020 HSGP LETPA project to support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the amendment to the contract. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Fire Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds. Submitted for City Manager's Office by.
