In order to procure these services, staff issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB). ITB No. 22-0143 consisted of detailed specifications outlining service expectations and performance. No guarantee was made that the City would purchase specific quantities. This bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on June 22, 2022, June 29, 2022, July 6, 2022 and July 13, 2022. The City received three (3) responses.

The individuals scores were averaged for each criteria and the final scores are listed in the table below.

Therefore, the panel recommends that Council authorize this agreement to North Texas Hydromulching and Landscape Services, LLC and C.Green Scaping, LP. Based on the user department anticipated usage, staff recommends multiple non-exclusive agreements be awarded to the listed vendors to ensure demands are met in a timely manner. Under these non-exclusive agreements, departments will order services according to lowest cost and availability. Staff certifies that the recommended vendors bid met specifications. Due to market volatility caused by supply chain disruptions, it may be necessary to increase the total compensation for each annual renewal term. Therefore, it is recommended that Council authorize a total compensation increase for the renewal terms, if exercised, of 20\% each year. The total compensation for the initial term of the contracts shall not exceed $146,000.00, $175,200.00 for the first renewal, $210,240.00 for the second renewal, $252,288.00 for the third renewal, $302,746.00 for the fourth renewal and $363,295.00 for the fifth renewal.
