First Amendment & First Renewal to Fort Worth City Secretary Contract No. 62785 Page 7 of 7 M&C Review Page 1 of 2 Official site of the City of Fort Worth, Texas A CITY COUNCIL AGEND FoRTI Create New From This M&C DATE: 9/17/2024 REFERENCE **M&C 24- LOG NAME NO.: 0847 CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: 35LIFE TECHNOLOGIES EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND SUPPLIES NO SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of a Sole Source Vendor Services Agreement with Life Technologies Corporation to Provide Thermo Fisher Scientific Consumables, Laboratory Supplies, Replacement Parts, and Equipment Maintenance in an Annual Amount Up to $250,000.00 with Four One -Year Renewal Options for the Police Department RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of a sole source vendor services agreement with Life Technologies Corporation to provide Thermo Fisher Scientific consumables, laboratory supplies, replacement parts, and equipment maintenance in an annual amount up to $250,000.00 with four one-year renewal options for the Police Department. DISCUSSION: This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to request authorization to execute a sole source vendor services agreement with Life Technologies Corporation to purchase Thermo Fisher Scientific consumables, laboratory supplies, replacement parts and maintenance for existing Thermo Fisher Scientific instruments used by the Police Department Crime Lab. In 2011 when the Police Department Biology Unit was established, Life Technologies equipment and supplies were selected, tested, evaluated, and validated. Once equipment, supplies, and test kits have been validated, changing to different equipment, supplies, or test kits would require extensive and time-consuming validation as well as expensive equipment replacement. Life Technologies supports multiple deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) platforms for the Crime Lab with preventative maintenance service agreements in addition to all the consumables specific to the instrument and method validations that are approved by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Quality Assurance Standards. These products and services are used to support the Crime Lab in its DNA and other forensic evidence collection and testing efforts. Life Technologies is the documented sole distributor of validated system consumables including capillaries, cartridges, chips, polymer, buffers, size standards, and replacement parts. Equipment owned by the Crime Lab includes two Thermo Fisher Scientific Automate Express instruments for DNA extraction, one Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) instrument for DNA sequence amplification, and one Genetic Analyzer. Only Thermo Fisher Scientific certified field service engineers are authorized to work on these instruments; no third -party service provider is authorized to perform any maintenance or repair Thermo Fisher Scientific equipment. Preventative maintenance for Crime Lab's existing Thermo Fisher equipment has been processed through June 28, 2025 in the amount of $39,440.88. Costs for equipment maintenance through June 28, 2029 are listed below. Equipment maintenance term Annual Amount 6/29/2025 through 6/28/2026 $39,440.88 6/29/2026 through 6/28/2027 $41,412.93 http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=32553&councildate=9/17/2024 3/18/2026 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 6/29/2027 through 6/28/2028 $43,384.98 6/29/2028 through 6/28/2029 $45,357.00 The purchase of consumables used in Crime Lab forensic analysis is projected to be $200,000.00 annually. Funding will be budgeted in Operating Supplies and Other Contractual Services accounts within the Crime Control and Prev Distr Operating Fund for Fiscal Year 2025. DVIN-BE: The Police Department was approved for a Chapter 252 Exemption by the City Attorney's Office for the purchase of Life Technologies consumables and equipment preventative maintenance. Therefore, the business equity goal is not applicable. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated. AGREEMENT TERM: Upon City Council's approval, the term of the Agreement for the will become effective upon City Secretary Contract execution and expire twelve (12) months following. RENEWAL OPTIONS: The Agreement may be renewed for up to four (4) one-year renewal terms, 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 period. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the recommendation and adoption of the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget by the City Council, funds will be available in the Fiscal Year 2025 operating budget, as appropriated, in the Crime Control & Prev Dist Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Police Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
