Background:
On March 12, 2019, City Commission approved Resolution No. 112-18 with Cintas Corporation utilizing U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance Solicitation No R-BB-19002 with Prince William County Public Schools for an estimated initial five (5) year term value of $250,000 with the option to renew for two (2) additional two (2) year periods at $250,000 per renewal term, contingent upon appropriation of funds. Purchasing Cooperative contracts of this type are used to obtain the best products at optimal pricing.
As a pilot run, Cintas began providing fire alarm maintenance, monitoring, inspection, and related services at several City of Delray Beach (City) facilities. Prior to Cintas, the City utilized a multitude of vendors with varying fees, contract conditions and inconsistent levels of service. As such, staff recommended, and City Commission authorized the standardizing of fire alarm related services. Cintas has subsequently demonstrated their reliability, capability, and superior quality of work. Staff recommends increasing the approved contract value to include renewals for the following purpose:
1. Finalize the transition of the fire alarm service providers. Of the one hundred ten (110) City buildings, fifty-five (55) conversions are completed.
2. Fiscal year 2021 included a Police Department (PD) sponsored Capital Improvement Project to replace two fire suppression systems, one is located within the computer server room for PD and one for the 911 Dispatch Center sever room. The new clean agent and waterless fire suppression system will replace, in its entirety the system originally installed in 1985; estimated cost is $200,000.
3. Retroactive approval for unanticipated expenses incurred for maintenance and repairs at multiple City facilities during the transition of the service providers; $68,000.
