Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with Networkfleet, Inc. for maintenance of a Vehicle Location System on 210 Fleet Vehicles, under General Services Administration (GSA) Joint Purchasing Contract GS-07F-5559R. This purchase order will expire on December 31, 2018.
On October 6, 2011, the District’s Board of Commissioners authorized participation in the GSA Federal Cooperative Purchasing Program under the Government Joint Purchasing Act, 30 ILCS 525/0.01 et.seq. GSA currently has a competitively bid contract for the installation and monitoring of vehicle location system services with Networkfleet, Inc. The term of the contract began on January 1, 2010 and expires on December 31, 2019.
Networkfleet, Inc. is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable due to the specialized nature of the services required.
In view of the foregoing it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with Networkfleet, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $47,754.00.
Funds for the 2018 expenditure in Account 101-15000-612860 are contingent on the Board of Commissioners’ approval of the District’s budget for that year.
Requested, Eileen M. McElligott, Administrative Services Officer, JRM:LSA
