EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider authorizing the purchase of concession products for The
Wave from US Foods, Inc. Staff desires to purchase concession items such as
produce, beverages, and meats. US Foods, Inc. was selected because of the
Government Premier Pricing Index, which is a multi-government competitive bidding
process securing the best possible prices. The goods and products cost will exceed
$45,000, which requires City Council approval.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Authorizing Purchase of Concession Products for The Wave from
US Foods, Inc.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funds have been allocated in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 operating budget for year one of
this two-year purchase order and will be included in next year’s budget process. The
two-year not-to-exceed purchase amount totals $70,000.
DESCRIPTION:
The Municipal Code requires purchases of general services, supplies, or equipment in
excess of $45,000, be subject to competitive bidding. However, the Municipal Code
allows City Council to make an exception “When another public agency has
administered a competitive bidding process and has a current valid agreement for the
same or substantially similar supplies.” Municipal Code Section 2.36.100(B)(9).
US Foods was selected because of its affiliation with the Government Premier Pricing
Index, which is a multi-government competitive bidding process securing the best
possible prices for the purchase of concession items such as produce, beverages,
dairy, janitorial supplies, dry grocery and meats.
