Prepared by: Dora Ramirez, Administrative Aide
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider the approval of an agreement with Shamrock Office

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Approving the Agreement with Shamrock Office Solutions and
Authorizing the City Manager to Procure Services and Equipment in Excess of $45,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for these contracted expenditures in Fiscal Year 2019-20 is included in the
Fiscal Year 2019-20 General Fund Budget, and future costs will be included in the
annual budget process. The agreement covers the estimated base cost for printer and
copier maintenance services and supplies in the amount of $97,665.12 for a three-year
period. Included is $60,000 for contingency of copy overages for the duration of the
contract period, for a not-to-exceed total of $157,665.12.
In addition, Staff is requesting that the City Manager be given the authority to make
related equipment replacement purchases in excess of $45,000 from Shamrock Office
Solutions, as budget is available. There is sufficient funding for this in the current year,
which will be carried over to Fiscal Year 2019-20 for this purpose.
DESCRIPTION:
Managed Print Services
The City currently has an agreement with Shamrock Office Solutions for maintenance
and servicing of all copy machines and printers, including supplies and labor (also
called Managed Print Services). The City has been pleased with the service received;
however, best practices established for public agency purchasing recommend that
Page 2 of 2
agencies periodically review the provision of these general services.
The City requested quotes for services from companies in the surrounding area, and
received responses from the following service providers:
Shamrock Office Solutions
Arc Document Solutions
Caltronics Business Systems
MRC Smart Technology Solutions
The evaluation and selection of the contractor were base d on the condition of the City's
current equipment, service needs, and the cost to include replacement of aging copiers
and printers. Shamrock Office Solutions is the vendor that can meet all of the City’s
requirements for managed print services.
Future Purchase of Replacement Printers and Copiers
The City periodically replaces aging equipment, including copiers and printers. As
Shamrock is an authorized dealer of Ricoh equipment, the brand preferred by Staff, the
City will also work with Shamrock throughout the duration of the contract for equipment
replacements. The total cost of this equipment over the three-year period will likely
exceed $45,000.
Chapter 2.36 of the Dublin Municipal Code (DMC) establishes the procedures for
contracts and purchasing, which require City Council approval for procurement of
goods and services in excess of $45,000 (DMC 2.36.090) for operating programs. As
such, in addition to approval of the agreement, Staff is requesting that the City Manager
be given the authority to purchase equipment through Shamrock Office Solutions in
excess of $45,000 as needed, and as budget is available.
