RENEWAL OPTIONS: The agreements may be renewed up to four (4) consecutive one-year renewal options for up to $1,725,000.00 for renewal 1, $1,983,750.00 for renewal 2, $2,281,313.00 for renewal 3, and $2,623,509.00 for renewal 4. 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. FURNITURE REQUESTS: PMD has implemented a structured process and a designated form to address the purchase of furniture, installation and design services using this vendor for departments housed at City Hall. Departments shall submit a form using the New City Hall Facilities Management Routine Request which is found on the City intranet. Departments shall not purchase, design or install furniture at City Hall without Property Management Department approval. SUCCESSOR CONTRACTS: The City will initially use the BuyBoard, The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS), Sourcewell and OMNIA Partners (OMNIA) contracts listed above to make purchases authorized by this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C). In the event a BuyBoard, TIPS, Sourcewell and OMNIA cooperative contract is not renewed, staff would cease purchasing at the end of the last purchase agreement coinciding with a valid cooperative contract. 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. In the event a BuyBoard, TIPS, Sourcewell and OMNIA Partners cooperative agreement is not extended, but BuyBoard, TIPS, Sourcewell and OMNIA executes new cooperative agreement(s) with substantially similar terms, this M&C authorizes the City to purchase furniture and services under the new BuyBoard, TIPS, Sourcewell and OMNIA contract(s). If this occurs, in no event will the City continue to purchase furniture and services under the new agreement(s) for more than four (4) years without seeking Council approval. COOPERATIVE PURCHASE - State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under a cooperative purchasing agreement satisfies any state law requiring that the local government seek competitive bids for the purchase of items. BuyBoard, TIPS, Sourcewell and OMNIA contracts are competitively bid to increase and simplify the purchasing power of government entities across the State of Texas. Information of publication of all cooperative purchasing agreements have been provided per the table below.
