2. Move that the Council not approve participating in Region 14 ECS’s Contract #152610, in partnership with OMNIA Partners under City Contract #20250070 and provide staff with direction.
Background: The USD Warehouse has utilized multiple vendors for this type of service and finds that BradyPlus has outperformed the other vendors to date. BradyPlus provides antibacterial hand soap, enzyme cleaner, and deodorizer blocks, which USD uses at a rapid rate. BradyPlus is also a more cost-effective solution than current and previous vendors of similar supplies and services. This cooperative will enable USD to continue to provide the level of service expected of the department, and to continue our working relationship with BradyPlus.
Issues/Analysis: Staff has reviewed Region 14 ESC’s contract, in partnership with OMNIA Partners, and finds that it meets the needs of the City and meets the requirements of the City’s procurement ordinance.
