FILE NUMBER
Amend the contract with Curley Wholesale Electric for miscellaneous
electrical supplies by $25,000 for an annual amount not to exceed $50,000.
DISCUSSION
The City establishes an annual list consisting of vendors that provide
supplies and services that are required by agencies on a consistent basis.
Curley Wholesale Electric has been a provider of miscellaneous electrical
supplies, such as circuit breakers, fuses, relays and tools, to various
City agencies for the maintenance of City facilities. Curley Wholesale
Electric, a Santa Ana vendor, offers reliable service, competitive pricing,
and has consistently been the lowest responsive bidder on low cost items.
The increase in demand for electrical supplies and two special purchases of
motor lead wires for the Public Works Agency, when combined with previous
purchases in the current fiscal year, exceeds the $25,000 aggregate limit
and requires City Council approval. Staff requests approval to increase
the aggregate limit for Curley Wholesale Electric to provide uninterrupted
purchases of electrical supplies while staff solicits bids for future
electrical supply needs.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the various departmental Operating Materials and
Supplies accounts (object code 6391).
