RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning the Amendment to Agreement for Escambia County Correctional Department Uniforms PD 13-14.048 -Tamyra Jarvis, Corrections Department Director

That the Board approve and authorize the Chairman to execute the Amendment of Agreement for Escambia County Correctional Department Uniforms, PD 13-14.048 between Galls, LLC, and Escambia County, Florida. Pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Agreement, Galls, LLC, has requested a 2.5% price adjustment on 9 of the 25 items covered by the Agreement. The increase is directly related to increased costs from suppliers and changes to market conditions affecting labor, utility, and shipping costs.

[Funding is available to cover this increased cost in General Fund 001; Jail Detention Cost Center 290401; Object Code 55201]

BACKGROUND:

On June 26, 2014, after a competitive bidding process facilitated by the Escambia County Office of Purchasing, Escambia County entered into Agreement PD13-14.048 for correctional department uniforms. Paragraph 5 of the original agreement noted the fact that the Contractor may request price adjustments every twelve (12) months. On April 26, 2017 the Office of Purchasing received correspondence from the Contractor requesting a 2.5% increase in the price of 9 items covered by the agreement. The correspondence noted that increased costs from suppliers and changes to market conditions affecting labor, utility, and shipping costs have resulted in an increased price of production to the Contractor. This is the first requested increase since the inception of PD13-14.048.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

Funding is available to cover the increased cost in General Fund 001; Jail Detention Cost Center 290401; Object Code 55201.
