Subject:

Agreement No. FD3-200-4486, Amendment No. 2, with 030530 Uniforms, LLC, dba Ace Uniforms of Phoenix, for Fire Uniforms

Proposed Motion:

Move City Council approve Agreement No. FD3-200-4486, Amendment No. 2, with 030530 Uniforms, LLC, dba Ace Uniforms of Phoenix, for fire uniforms, in an amount not to exceed $125,000, for the period of six months, November 15, 2024, through May 14, 2025.

Background/Discussion:

The Chandler Fire Department (CFD) contracts with a vendor to provide Department-approved uniforms. Staff use an annual uniform allowance to purchase their individual uniforms. As uniforms are purchased throughout the year, amounts are deducted from each employee's account. The account balances are tracked by the vendor and billing invoices are sent to Fire Administration monthly. This practice helps ensure Department staff present the best appearance to the public and are provided with uniform items that meet national standards for safety.

Evaluation:

On October 27, 2022, City Council approved an agreement with 030530 Uniforms, LLC, dba Ace Uniforms of Phoenix, for fire uniforms, for a one-year period, with the option of up to four (4) additional up to one-year extensions. The contractor has agreed to extend for six months at the same terms and conditions. Staff recommends extension of the agreements for the term of November 15, 2024, through May 14, 2025.
