DISCUSSION The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize an agreement with Siddons-Martin Emergency Group LLC (Siddons-Martin) for emergency medical, safety, and rescue equipment. The contract will be utilized by the Fire department to purchase a variety of products including, but not limited to, spreaders, cutters, combination units, and rescue saws. These items will be used for rescue operations performed by City of Fort Worth Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel. On March 31, 2026, City Council approved M&C 26-0230 authorizing cooperative purchasing agreements with multiple vendors, including Siddons-Martin, through BuyBoard Contract No. 798-26. After Council approval it was determined that Siddons-Martin and BuyBoard were unable to finalize an agreement. As a result, the City is unable to execute an agreement utilizing the cooperative contract for purchases. To ensure the Fire Department can continue to purchase the required equipment without interruption, staff is requesting authorization to use the Siddons-Martin cooperative purchase agreement through Houston -Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) contract No. EE11-24, which provides the same goods and services. 1 of 14 FORT WORTH<., FUNDING: The maximum annual amount allowed under the agreement will be $1,000,000.00; however, the actual amount used will be based on the needs of the department and available budget. Funding is budgeted in the General Operating & Maintenance category within the General Fund for the Fire Department. 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 the purchase of the items.

AGREEMENT TERM: The initial term of the agreement will begin upon execution and end on October 31, 2026. RENEWAL OPTIONS: The Agreements may be renewed for up to three additional one-year terms, in accordance with the terms of the underlying cooperative contract. Should the cooperative contract elect to exercise the renewal options, the City shall have the option to do the same. 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. SMALL BUSINESS: A Small Business goal is not assigned to this contract because a waiver has been approved by the department's Assistant City Manager, in accordance with the City's Small Business Ordinance. This agreement will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. This contract requires a Form 1295. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously appropriated, in the General Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and award of the contract.
