Three-Year Term Contract with Two Years of Renewal Options for Ballistic Helmets and Headsets (Citywide)
Members of Special Operations Units face high risk situations that require a high level of protection and features including internal padding, comfort when wearing electronic ear protection, ability to mount night vision goggles, rails that allow attachment of hands free lighting systems, and impact protection. This contract will provide ballistic helmets and headsets that integrate with the helmets.
City staff recommends awarding the contract to the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder, Gentex Corporation, at $75,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5%, or the adjusted Consumer Price Index. The initial purchase is grant funded by Arizona Department of Homeland Security ($5,500) and the Department's Operating Budget ($24,397.47).
