Title
Three-Year Term Contract with Two Years of Renewal Options for a Driving Safety Solution (Addition) for the Environmental Management and Sustainability Department (Citywide)
In 2013, Environmental Management and Sustainability began piloting DVR systems in 4 collection vehicles. The pilot has been successful and the system has proven to be a valuable tool in many instances. This purchase will provide a camera and DVR system, including installation services, for the City’s refuse collection fleet of 57 vehicles. The system monitors and records the activity in and around the vehicle as it is being operated, which provides helpful documentation in matters of disputes, public safety, and claims of damage to persons and/or property. In addition, the system will enhance the Department’s safety program and will help to provide better customer service.
An evaluation committee recommends awarding the contract to the single, responsive, and responsible proposal from Mountain Regional Equipment Solutions, Inc., Year 1 and initial purchase, at $445,000, based on estimated requirements; and Years 2 and 3, at $50,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5%, or the adjusted Consumer Price Index. This purchase is funded by the Capital Enterprise Fund - Solid Waste Sub Fund.
