Dollar Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Uniform Garments for Citywide Departments (Citywide)
Through its Uniform Garment Program, the City purchases and issues garments to for certain classes of employees. Items include T-shirts, polo shirts, jeans and shorts; traditional poly/cotton and cotton uniform shirts and pants; and jackets, hats and ball caps.
The contract is in its final year. Work on a new contract started in late 2025 but the extent of specification changes from the many departments has slowed the rebid and the contract was extended through 9/15/2026. The remaining funds are not enough to sustain the City’s needs during this extended period for the rebid and award of the new contract.
The Business Services Department and Procurement Services recommend increasing the dollar limit with Ace Uniforms of Phoenix (Primary) and Mission Uniform Supply (Secondary) by $250,000, from $475,000 to a combined total amount not to exceed $725,000 through 9/15/2026.
