Staples has an online ordering system, which provides <br /> next-day delivery service, tracking and payment information for the requesting agency, <br /> and spend analysis reports for buyers. <br /> Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 2-807(d), authorizes the City to purchase against <br /> contracts from any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. County of Los <br /> Angeles entered into Contract No. MA-IS-2140295 with Staples Contract & Commercial <br /> as a result of open, competitive bidding on behalf of its members, which includes <br /> government agencies. This cooperative procurement allows all public agencies access to <br /> discounted pricing. <br /> The City proposes to enter into a cooperative contract with Staples Contract & <br /> Commercial, Inc. for office supplies. Contract MA-IS-2140295 ensures the products and <br /> services offered will provide staff with high quality, discounted materials. <br /> The total amount not to exceed $175,000 was calculated by taking the actual monthly <br /> spend of our current Office Supply vendor, ODP Business Solutions, and extrapolating <br /> that amount across the 19-month term. <br />
