Item No. 17
For Meeting of 7/16/2013
ITEM TITLE. Resolution authorizing Fire Department Sole Source
Purchase of SCBA Equipment
SUBMITTED BY Mark Soptich, Deputy Fire Chief — 576 -6747
SUMMARY EXPLANATION
Staff respectfully requests City Council consideration of a resolution authorizing a sole source
procurement and standardization with Sea Western Fire Fighting Equipment. This would be a
sole source purchase and formal bid requirements would be waived, since bidding to the
desired requirements would result in only one responsive and responsible submittal
c) Currently, the department uses MSA SCBAs and has been doing so for several decades With
council approval to replace our SCBAs in May, we have selected to remain with MSA as the
sole source provider for our new SCBAs based on the following
Training will be minimal as our personnel are currently trained on the same manufacture of
SCBAs.
The department has certified technicians to repair and maintain the new SCBAs.
We have parts in stock and test equipment to maintain the new SCBAs.
We will be interoperable with neighboring fire departments that use the same manufacture of
SCBAs.
Existing apparatus mounting brackets will accommodate the new SCBAs
We are able to use some components from our current SCBAs on our new SCBAs saving some
purchase costs.
It is to the City's advantage to purchase the same SCBAs as are currently used for the reasons
outlined above.
