1-Description/Analysis
2-Contract - Cooperative Agreement Pitney Bowes, Inc.
Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The Department of Public Works provides US mail services to City departments through the department’s Central Services section. This includes providing access to Pitney Bowes postage meter equipment with prepaid postage for convenient, fast stamping of US mail.
Policy Considerations: The recommendations in this report are in accordance with City Code Chapter 3.56 and the Sacramento City Code Section 4.04.020 and the City Council Rules of Procedure (Chapter 7, Section E.2.d) mandate that unless waived by a 2/3 vote of the City Council, all labor agreements, and all agreements greater than $1,000,000 shall be made available to the public at least ten (10) days prior to City Council action. This item was published for 10-day review on August 15, 2024, in compliance with the City Code.
Economic Impacts: None.
File ID: 2024-01483 8/27/2024 Consent Item 10.
Environmental Considerations:
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): No environmental review is necessary because the recommendations in this report involve the ongoing purchase of supplies and are not considered to be a project in accordance with Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA guidelines.
Sustainability: None.
Commission/Committee Action: Not applicable.
Rationale for Recommendation: In an ongoing effort to maximize cost savings and staff resources, many government agencies share contract efforts through cooperative purchasing. This procurement method increases pricing competitiveness and lowers operating costs though volume buying. When comparing the administrative costs of procurement, staff considers product research, source section, specifications, advertising, staff reports, awards and administration of the contract.
The City has used both regional and national cooperative purchase agreements to purchase goods and services. Cooperative purchasing enables City departments to evaluate a broader range of contracting opportunities and share resources with other jurisdictions. Cooperative purchase also leverages internal and external resources to maximize cost savings opportunities for the City.
This report recommends actions necessary to authorize expenditures, in support of City departments, for prepaid postage through June of 2027.
· Prepaid postage for postage meters must be purchased through the same company from which the post meter equipment is purchased from.
· Central Services owns Pitney Bowes postage meter equipment. Purchasing postage from another vendor would require obtaining postage meter equipment from another vendor, thereby increasing overall cost to the city.
· Executing the recommended contract with Pitney Bowes will prevent an interruption of this critical service to City Departments.
Financial Considerations: The recommended contract with Pitney Bowes in an amount not to exceed $1,500,000 will provide postage through June 2027. The contract amount was determined based on a review of historical expenditures and a consideration of future needs including increased postage rates. Funding for this contract will initially be provided by the Department of Public Works operating budget (General Fund, Fund 1001). Usage by City departments is tracked on a monthly basis and department operating budgets or capital improvement projects that use the service are then charged for their share of the cost, so all costs are internally reimbursed.
File ID: 2024-01483 8/27/2024 Consent Item 10.
Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Pitney Bowes, Inc. is not an LBE. The minimum LBE participation requirement is waived for the City’s use of cooperative purchase agreements that have been competitively bid, evaluated, and awarded by other governmental agencies that may or may not have similar LBE programs.
