Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Chuck Winn, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Approval of Agreement for Purchase of Furniture and Related Services for the Bozeman Public Safety Center (BPSC) under Cooperative Purchasing Agreements.
MEETING DATE: June 8, 2020 AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent RECOMMENDATION: Authorize City Manager to sign Agreement for Purchase of Furniture and Related Services for the Bozeman Public Safety Center (BPSC) under Cooperative Purchasing Agreements. BACKGROUND: On November 6, 2018, Bozeman voters approved the sale of bonds to finance
the design and construction of a new Bozeman Public Safety Center. This new building will provide facilities for the Bozeman Police Department, Fire Department Station 1, Municipal Courts, and victim services including City prosecution services. An important and significant element of the project is the furniture and specialized storage
equipment. This category includes, but is not limited to, furniture in open offices, private offices, conference rooms, lobby areas, firefighter dormitory and dayroom areas, evidence storage and chain of custody systems, courtroom furniture, law enforcement and firefighter gear storage, weapon racks, and high density storage systems.
As a local government, Montana law and the City’s purchasing policy authorize the City of Bozeman to purchase under cooperative purchasing agreements, including certain federal General Services Administration (GSA) schedules, existing contracts competitively bid by group purchasing organizations (GPOs), and existing State of Montana term contracts. Cooperative purchasing allows the City to receive the discounted pricing negotiated by the State of Montana,
federal government, or other lead agency, while also meeting Montana procurement laws for competitive sealed bidding and contract requirements. All this ensures that purchases using taxpayer money under this system are fair and competitive. We have been working with the State of Montana Procurement Bureau to utilize this process to
contract with a furniture vendor for the BPSC. On April 7, 2020, we interviewed and hosted presentations from two furniture vendors pre-approved by the Procurement Bureau. Through this process we selected Contract Design Associates (CDA) from Missoula to enter into negotiations with. Those negotiations have been successful and resulted in the agreement before you tonight. Through CDA, and in compliance with state law, we are able to join other GPOs and take

advantage of competitive pricing based on group purchasing. CDA will be providing design,
installation, and warranty services as a part of the contract. FISCAL EFFECTS: Estimated costs of the furniture and specialized storage systems have been included in the BPSC project budget. We are working with CDA to finalize furniture and storage
designs and quantities which will determine final costs for this element of the project. Initial work indicates we are within the projected budget estimates of $1.5M. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None
ALTERNATIVES: None identified. Attachment:
