Authorize a purchase agreement for gasoline and diesel fuel with primary and secondary vendors for the City of Fort Worth and Interlocal Agreements with various Tarrant County governmental entities. Prices will be based on the overall low bid of the Dallas Metro Texas OPIS (Oil Price Information Service) Petrosat Net Price per gallon for the day the fuel is delivered and Wall Street Journal, Cash Prices, Fats and Oils (for bio-diesel fuel only) each Monday. Payment is due 30 days from the date the invoice is received. The City takes ownership at the City's storage tank and freight is not charged; and 2. Authorize the primary award for gasoline to Superior Fuels and Lubricants and the secondary award to Reeder Distributors; and for diesel, the primary award.to Reeder Distributors and the secondary award to Lucky Lady. See the attached bid tabulation for pricing; and 3. Authorize the City Manager to enter into Interlocal Agreements with various Tarrant County governmental entities, as requested, based on the same prices, terms and conditions of the original agreement; and 4. Authorize this agreement to begin December 17, 2002, and expire December 16, 2003, with options to renew for four additional one-year periods. DISCUSSION: City departments and various Tarrant County governmental entities will use this agreement to obtain gasoline and diesel fuel to supply and operate gasoline and diesel-powered equipment. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of fuel would be purchased. During the previous year, the City purchased about 2,120,000 gallons at a cost of $2,014,000, and various local governmental entities purchased about 1,900,000 gallons at a cost of$1,805,000. Gasoline and diesel fuel were bid as an Interlocal Agreement to develop and encourage cooperative purchasing efforts to reduce the cost of gasoline and diesel fuel to the City and other Tarrant County governmental entities. The following entities have purchased fuel utilizing the current Interlocal Agreement: the City of Arlington, the City of Grapevine, Tarrant County, and Tarrant County College. Awarding a secondary agreement will ensure an uninterrupted supply of all fuels to the City and other governmental entities should the primary vendor fail to provide fuel in instances such as fuel shortages and curtailments. City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication DATE REFERENCE NUMBER LOG NAME PAGE 12/17/02 **P-9725 0002-0288 2 of 2 SUBJECT PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR GASOLINE AND DIESEL FUEL WITH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY VENDORS FOR THE CITY OF FORT WORTH AND VARIOUS TARRANT COUNTY GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES BID ADVERTISEMENT - This bid was advertised in the Commercial Recorder on October 9 and 16, 2002. The Purchasing Division solicited 15 vendors from the purchasing system database and 10 from the DemandStar.com plan holders. Seven vendors responded with a bid, two of which did not quote a complete bid of one or more categories as required in the specifications. BID TABULATION - See the attached bid tabulation. M/WBE - A waiver of the goal for M/WBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE Office because the purchase of goods is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. RENEWAL OPTIONS - This agreement may be renewed for up to four successive one-year terms at the City's option. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that funds are available as in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Equipment Services Fund.
