Resolution - Police:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Purchase Order 10026392, with Rules of Engagement Tactical, LLC dba ROE Tactical, for duty rifles and related equipment for the Special Weapons and Tactics teams of the Lubbock Police Department.
Item Summary
The current duty rifles used by the Lubbock Police Department Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team, were originally purchased in June 2013. Since that initial purchase, due to normal wear and use, the upper receivers were replaced in 2017. The SWAT team has been replacing parts as needed, to maintain the safety, functionality, and reliability of these rifles, but it has become apparent that they are in need of a full replacement at this time.
The SWAT team tested and evaluated several manufacturers and equipment packages. Cobalt Kinetics and ROE Tactical provided the most comprehensive equipment package to include everything needed in this replacement purchase, including a lifetime warranty, a fair trade-in value for old equipment, and future training courses for the SWAT team. ROE Tactical is on BuyBoard Contract and is the sole law enforcement distributor of Cobalt Kinetics in the Texas Region.
Fiscal Impact
Purchase Order 10026392 with ROE Tactical, for $104,637.65, is funded in the Abandoned Motor Vehicles Fund.
