Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Safety io LLC (An MSA Company) to provide a one-year subscription to the Fleet Manager product. This product is accessed via their Safety io Grid web application. The subscription period is September 10, 2024 to September 9, 2025.
Fleet Manager provides the District with a secure and reliable cloud-based information system that facilitates the consolidation, analysis, tracking, and reporting on portable gas meter data across the District. System updates and enhancements are included at no additional charge.
Safety io LLC (An MSA Company), the sole service provider of Fleet Manager, has submitted prices for the services required. Inasmuch as Safety io LLC (An MSA Company) is the only source of supply for the services required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Safety io LLC (An MSA Company) is registered and in good standing with the State of Pennsylvania. The Director of Human Resources has requested to move forward with the recommendation to award. The Director of Procurement and Material Management concurs.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) is not applicable because the classification of work does not fall within the provisions of the MPLA.
In view of the foregoing, it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order to Safety io LLC (An MSA Company) in an amount not to exceed $18,960.00.
Funds are available in Account 101-27000-612820.
