SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works
DATE: May 21, 2009
CONTENTS: Original Equipment Manufacturer Traffic Vendor List
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion,
1. Approve and authorize staff to use vendors on the Original
Equipment Manufacturer Traffic Vendor List appended to this
report; and
2. Grant exception to Bidding Requirements as provided for by
Section 3.32.090 of the Municipal Code for Fiscal Year 2009-10.
Discussion:
The Public Works Traffic Signal Maintenance Division utilizes a variety of original
equipment manufacturer vendors for equipment, repair, maintenance, and/or parts that
are not available from aftermarket sources. The attached Original Equipment
Manufacturer Traffic Vendor List gives a brief description of the local and only providers
of services and parts for traffic signal equipment.
Each year, staff posts the vendor list and an invitation to be added to it. Subsequent to
this posting, staff compiles a list of vendors and service providers capable of offering
immediate accessibility, unique supplies, discounted pricing, or any combination of
these factors. Purchases or services valued at more than $25,000 will follow the
standard procedure for procurement. Staff is requesting that City Council approve
these vendors, and grant exception to Bidding Requirements as provided for by Section
3.32.090 of the Municipal Code for Fiscal Year 2009-10.
