EMERGENCY PROCUREMENT
Purpose and Background:
To provide a rapid method of procuring goods or services to prevent delays in work which may vitally affect the health, safety or welfare of citizens or employees.
Policy:
While the need for occasional emergency procurement is recognized, the practice shall be curtailed as much as possible by anticipating needs in time for the use of the regular procurement procedures.
Emergency procurements shall be authorized by the Procurement Services Division when they are in compliance with Municipal Code 2.52.334 as follows:
"...the City Manager may make or authorize others to make emergency procurements of supplies and services, when there exists a threat to public health, welfare, or safety; provided that such emergency procurements shall be made with such competition as is practicable under the circumstances. A written determination of the basis for the emergency and for the selection of the particular contractor shall be included in the contract file." In case of actual emergency departments may procure any supplies, materials or equipment required, provided that the immediate procurement is essential to prevent delays in the work of the using department which may affect the health, safety or welfare of citizens.
The head of the using department shall send the Procurement Services Manager a requisition, a copy of the quotation and/or delivery record, and a full written explanation of the circumstances of the emergency, which shall be filed by the Procurement Services Manager as a permanent and public record of the purchase.
An "emergency" is defined as a breakdown in machinery or equipment or the interruption of an essential service or any threat to public health, safety or welfare.
Procedure:
Emergency procurements are not valid for contrived urgencies resulting from a lack of planning and organization.
Emergency procurements will only be approved when requested by authorized employees.
The using department shall contact the Procurement Services Division, advise them of the emergency, and request a PO number.
If the emergency arises during a time when the Procurement Services Division is normally closed, the using department may proceed with the procurement without a PO number.
It becomes the responsibility of the using department to inform Procurement Services of the details of the transaction within twenty-four (24) hours or at the earliest possible time on the first normally scheduled work day following the emergency.

After receipt of the required material or service, the using department shall forward to Procurement Services:
• All quotation and/or delivery documents (from the vendors)) • The completed 'Emergency Justification' form with City Manager Signature Authorization (for purchases under $10,000) and with Council Signature Authorization (for purchases over $10,000) and the City Council resolution or copy of the minutes approving the specific emergency procurement. • Invoices must be mailed directly to Finance, Attn: Acct. Payable. • Upon final approval and signature, all original(s) must be returned to the Procurement Services Division
Any Purchase Order not accompanied by the required paperwork, will be returned to the originating department, and will not be processed for payment until Procurement Services receives the complete package.
It is the goal of the Procurement Services Division to save funds on all procurements. By reducing emergency procurements, significant dollar savings will be realized. 02/03/04
