REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: AUGUST 16, 2016 TITLE; AGREEMENT WITH PLANETBIDS FOR E- PROCUREMENT SYSTEM (STRATEGIC PLAN NO. 4, 11B) Ze CITY MANA _R RECOMMENDED ACTION CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: APPROVED ❑ As Recommended ❑ As Amended ❑ Ordinance on Vt Reading ❑ Ordinance on 2 n Reading ❑ Implementing Resolution ❑ Set Public Hearing For CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with PlanetBids, Inc. for web -based procurement services for a three -year period beginning August 16, 2016 and ending August 15, 2019 with provision for a two -year renewal option exercisable by the City Manager, in an amount of $33,375 for the first year and an annual amount not to exceed $27,400 for subsequent years, subject to non - substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. DISCUSSION The Finance and Management Services Purchasing Division (Purchasing) administers the City's centralized purchasing processes. On August 5, 2013, Purchasing Division entered into an agreement with PlanetBids, a certified Small Business and Women Business Enterprise, in an effort to streamline the procurement process. Through the implementation of the Bid Management Module System (System) the City has achieved a more efficient and transparent method for electronically advertising, monitoring and awarding formal and informal bids and proposals, while significantly increasing the number of vendors notified of the City's bid and proposal solicitation. The year before the bid management module was implemented, Purchasing division processed 1,100 requisitions and 27 formal invitations for bid, which were advertised to an average of five vendors. Furthermore, staff time incurred for each bid approximated between two to three hours. During fiscal -year 2014 -2015, a year after implementation, 1,371 requisitions and 45 formal invitation for bids were processed and an average of 31 vendors were notified for each solicitation. Additionally, the City's Requests for Proposals are now publicized online by Purchasing staff; all without incurring additional overtime or staff time. An added benefit in implementing the software is vendors now have the capability to register online as opposed to staff searching for vendors to notify of the City's bid and requesting 25J -1 Agreement with PlanetBids August 16, 2016 Page 2 proposal solicitations. The system provides a central repository for solicitations for both materials and services and employs real -time notification of requests for bids and proposals as well as addenda notification, custom emails and online Q &A management. Public Works projects are advertised and maintained through a different process outside of the PlanetBids software. PWA staff coordinates with the City's webmaster to post and maintain construction project notifications and addenda. PlanetBids has developed an Advanced eBidding for Public Works that would streamline the existing process by eliminating this costly step. Acquiring the Advanced eBidding module will complete the centralization of each type, both Purchasing and PWA, of procurement method utilized by the City. PlanetBids was originally selected after staff interviewed and attended product presentations from four eProcurement providers. Recently, staff began conducting informal inquiries about eProcurement solutions utilized by other local public agencies. The results confirmed that PlanetBids continues to be widely used due to its innovative and best -in -class eProcurement solutions. PlanetBids has provided excellent customer service and continues to improve and expand their solutions. Additionally, PlanetBids has offered to extend the same pricing for three years for both the current and the new Advanced eBidding module for Public Works. As such, staff recommends approval of a three -year agreement as follows: PB SYSTEM*"" Module(s) SETUP YEAR 1 (FY 2016 -17) YEAR 2 (FY 2017 -18) YEAR 3 (FY 2018 -19) Vendor Management & Bid Management n/a $ 16,413.33 $ 16,413.33 $ 16,413.33 Advanced eBidding (add -on) n/a $ 4,500.00 $ 4,500.00 $ 4,500.00 Emergency Operations n/a $ 4,110.99 $ 4,110.99 $ 4,110.99 Read -Only — 5 user licenses n/a $ 2,375.00 $ 2,375.00 $ 2,375.00 Onsite Training (including travel expenses) $ 1,575.00 TOTAL *$ 28,974.32 $ 27,399.32 $ 27,399.32 *The amount of $33,375.00 includes $4,400.68 contingency for additional user license.
