In the past, the bid for Annual Supply of Tires was prepared for all brands of tires stocked in inventory within one bid document. The bid results typically ended up split between three vendors in relation to the various brands of tires needed. The contracts would have different expiration and renewal dates and made it very difficult for contract renewals. Beginning last year, staff now bids the annual supply of tires by brand of tire using cooperative purchasing contracts when available.
Staff has identified American Tire Distributors for Annual Supply of Bridgestone/Firestone Auto, Truck, and Industrial Tires, through Buyboard Contract No. 553-18, for the best pricing on these tires.
Financial Implications
Funding is available in the FY 17-18 annual budget in the Warehouse Division of Finance. Purchase of tires is facilitated by Warehouse operations through the inventory system.
Recommended/Desired Action
Staff recommends award to American Tire Distributors.
