M&C Review Page 2 of 3
1 Robert Half International, Inc. H-GAC TS06-21 May 31, 2024 1
COOPERATIVE PURCHASE: State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under a
cooperative purchasing agreement satisfies State laws requiring that the local government seek
competitive bids for purchase of the item. Cooperative contracts have been competitively bid to
increase and simplify the purchasing power of local government entities across the State of Texas.
SUCCESSOR CONTRACTS: In the event the DIR or H-GAC agreements are not renewed, staff
would cease purchasing at the end of the last purchase agreement coinciding with a valid cooperative
agreement. If the City Council were to not appropriate funds for a future year, staff would stop making
purchases when the last appropriation expires, regardless of whether the then -current purchase
agreement has expired.
The City will initially use the DIR and H-GAC contracts to make purchases authorized by this M&C.
The DIR Cooperative Contracts are set to expire on August 31, 2024. If DIR-CPO-4637, DIR-CPO-
4526, DIR-CPO-4529, and H-GAC TS06-21 are extended, this M&C authorizes the City to purchase
similar equipment and supplies under the extended contracts. If DIR-CPO-4637, DIR-CPO-4526,
DIR-CPO-4529, and H-GAC TS06-21 are not extended, but DIR and H-GAC execute new cooperative
contracts with each vendor and with substantially similar terms, this M&C authorizes the City to
purchase the services under the new contracts. If this occurs, in no event will the City continue to
purchase services under the new agreements for more than three (3) years without seeking Council
approval.
BUSINESS EQUITY: A goal is not assigned when purchasing from an approved purchasing
cooperative or public entity.
AGREEMENT TERM: Upon City Council approval, the Agreement will become effective and expire
August 31, 2023 in accordance with the DIR contracts and May 31, 2024 in accordance with H-GAC
TS06-21.
RENEWAL OPTIONS: The DIR agreements may be renewed for one additional one-year renewal
term at the City's option. This action 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.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on
City funds.
