DISCUSSION: On April 22, 2025, City Council authorized execution of Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) 25-0336 for Ford automotive parts, services, and supplies using Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement 080124 -FMC for the Property Management Department (PMD). The City utilizes this agreement to service and repair Ford vehicles in the City's fleet. The Purchasing Division was approached by PMD to amend M&C 25-0336 to include Rush Truck Centers of Texas, LP, as an additional vendor to the original authorization in order to keep up with demand of Ford automotive parts, services, and supplies. The additional vendor is required due to the increase of Ford vehicles to the City's fleet. This will help ensure the City maintains consistent access to necessary parts and avoid delays in vehicle maintenance or repairs. All agreement terms remain consistent with the authorization given under M&C 25-0336. FUNDING: The addition of this vendor will not increase or affect the original purchase agreement amount of up to $300,000.00 authorized in M&C 25-0336. However, the actual amount used will be based on the need of the departments and the available budget. Funding is budgeted in the Fleet Service Outside Repair & Maintenance account within the Fleet & Equipment Sery Fund for PMD. A 1295 form is not required for Rush Truck Centers of Texas, LP because it is a wholly owned subsidiary of a public company, Rush Enterprises, Inc. This project will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. FISCAL IN FORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on City funds.
