4/16/2002 NUMBER Recommendation to approve the increase in the purchase amount to Tyler
Uniforms Co. for the Fire Department. Page 1 of 1
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend that the City Council authorize a $5,000 increase in the purchase amount authorized to Tyler
Uniform Co. Inc. Tyler, Texas for the Fire Department Uniforms.
BACKGROUND:
On August 7, 2001, the City Council awarded a one year unit price bid to Tyler Uniform Co. Inc. Tyler, Texas.
The award authorized the Fire Department to purchase uniforms in the amount of $20,882.62 based on the
awarded unit prices.
The Fire Department underestimated the quantity of uniforms that would be purchased during the year, so we
are requesting Council authorization to increase the total estimated purchase to $25, 882.62. This amount
should be sufficient until the blanket order expires on August 6, 2002.
BUDGET/FISCAL EFFECT:
Funds are approved in the Fire Department 2001-2002 fiscal budget in Uniform and Bunker Gear Account No.
001-1121-522.26-00.
STAFFING/EMPLOYEE EFFECT:
None.
SUMMARY:
We recommend that the City Council authorize a $5,000 increase in the purchase amount authorized to Tyler
Uniform Co. Inc. Tyler, Texas for the Fire Department Uniforms.
