Subject: Recommendation for Award to Procure Private Lactation Pods for Levi’s Stadium
Recommendation
Recommend approval and award of a one-time Purchase Order to MAMAVA, Inc to purchase three Mamava XL lactation pods with custom graphics and related accessories in the amount of $90,118.73 (inclusive of all applicable sales tax).
The Forty Niners Stadium Management Company LLC (Stadium Manager) has a need to procure private lactation pods for Levi’s Stadium (Stadium). The purchase of lactation pods was approved as part of the FY22/23 Santa Clara Stadium Authority (SCSA) Capital Expenditures budget.
The acquisitions of lactation pods will provide new lactation spaces for guests to pump or breastfeed milk in private at the Stadium. The private lactation pods will include a secure door, seating, lighting, counter, mirror, coat hook and electrical outlets. While these spaces are not required at stadiums yet, they are required at other major assembly areas in the State of California, such as airports, colleges, county jails, community colleges, and state colleges. Providing these pods allow breastfeeding guests a private location to express milk and still attend and enjoy events at the Stadium.
Stadium Manager conducted market research to identify sources of supply of lactation pods. In discussion with suppliers, Stadium Manager was apprised that there were numerous public agencies who have established agreements for the acquisition of lactation pods. Stadium Manager sought assistance from CoProcure, a startup company and a free resource for public agency buyers at the local level to find and work with suppliers available on cooperative contracts and identified various cooperative agreements both at the Federal and local level to utilize.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 296DFDE8-76F5-4646-BDD7-9F857E12B668 2 Stadium Manager identified Mamava XL lactation pods to conform with all the American Disabilities Act (ADA) and California Building Code (CBC) requirements.
Massachusetts Higher Education Consortium’s cooperative agreement provided the Mamava XL lactation pods with better pricing compared to the Federal General Services Agency (GSA) cooperative agreement schedule. The manufacturer MAMAVA, Inc was receptive to working with Stadium Manager to establish a local agreement with mutually agreed upon terms.
MAMAVA, Inc provided a quotation as requested by Stadium Manager for three Mamava XL lactation pods with custom graphics and related accessories delivered to the Stadium. The total cost of the purchase including shipping and applicable sales tax is $90,118.73.
Next Steps
The SCSA Board approved the purchase of private lactation spaces as part of the FY22/23 SCSA Capital Expenditures budget with a not to exceed amount of $126,000.
Therefore, Stadium Manager recommends approval to procure three Mamava XL lactation pods with custom graphics and related accessories in the amount of $90,118.73.
Once Stadium Manager receives approval from the SCSA Board, a Purchase Order will be issued to MAMAVA, Inc and an executed copy forwarded to the Board. Supporting documentation is provided for review and approval. The cost of this purchase is referenced in the FY 22/23 SCSA Capital Expenditure budget as Private Lactation Spaces for Levi’s Stadium. The approved budget amount is $126,000.
