G-61 APPROVE SUPPLEMENTAL AWARDS ON TERM BID
RECOMMENDED: That The School Board of Miami-Dade County, Florida, APPROVE the supplemental award on the following term bid, inasmuch as the estimated requirements, previously awarded by the Board, will be exceeded before the bid term expires.
Bid #150-ZZ11 – PORTABLE RADIO COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT AND ACCESSORIES, CATALOG DISCOUNT, to establish a contract, to purchase, at firm discounts, quantities, as may be required, of portable radio communications equipment and accessories, for use by various schools and departments, during the term of the bid, effective May 17, 2000, through May 16, 2001. This supplemental award is requested due to increased usage resulting from the addition of 680 (800 megahertz), school bus radios, not included in the original estimated bid expenditure amount. The request for these radios is the result of the action taken at the June 21, 2000, Board meeting that authorized the Superintendent to enter into an agreement with Miami-Dade County to provide 800 megahertz radio service for school buses, emergency operations and other district functions. The new units will replace existing radios that are currently being leased, and will result in approximately $150,000 annual savings. The supplemental amount requested is $673,200 to purchase the additional radios.

Bid #001-AA06 – PAPER: MULTIPURPOSE XEROGRAPHIC I, to establish a contract, to purchase, at firm unit prices, quantities, as may be required, of xerographic paper, for Stores and Mail Distribution stock, during the term of the bid, effective September 13, 2000, through September 12, 2001. Originally, two bids were developed for these items, one a set-aside bid and one an open market bid, with equally divided estimated quantities. Each bid allowed for obtaining quotes during the contract period. During the initial six month period of the contract, the prices obtained on the open market bid, were substantially lower, resulting in savings to the District. However, the estimated dollar amount on this bid has been depleted. The supplemental amount requested is to maximize savings through continued lower prices, during the remaining contract period. Should the prices on the set-aside bid be reduced, that bid will be utilized. The supplemental amount requested is based on the average monthly expenditure amount of $152,076.47, times the twelve (12) month contract period, minus the original award amount.
