6.D. - Page 3 of 70 <br />Step 2: The LPA publishes a Request for Proposal (RFP). Here, PPA published a notice of <br />solicitation (No. 1510) in 2013 with specific weighted criteria including favorable pricing for <br />various law enforcement equipment among other things. <br />Step 3-5: The LPA evaluates responses and awards a contract based on the RFP criteria resulting <br />in a Master Price Agreement (MPA) which contract is then made available. Here, an MPA with <br />Axon Enterprises was found to be the lowest responsible bidder. The current MPA (Attachment <br />2) was entered into on June 11, 2018. The discounted pricing is available until 10/28/21 under <br />the cooperative purchasing provision of the Public Procurement Authority (Contract Number <br />VH11630, as amended). <br />Step 6: NPPGOV members can "piggyback" off the MPA by signing an Intergovernmental <br />Agreement with the LPA. Members can then make purchases. Here, the City may take advantage <br />of this favorable pricing for CEWs by executing the Participating Agency Endorsement and <br />Authorization to the Intergovernmental Agreement and authorizing the expenditure. <br />Staff recommends entering into the participating Agency Endorsement and Authorization to <br />Intergovernmental Purchasing Agreement and piggybacking off the contract between the Public <br />Procurement Authority and Axon Enterprise, Inc. to purchase 125 CEWs and the required accessories <br />including holsters, batteries, and cartridges. Staff believes that the findings under Municipal Code Section <br />2.80 may be made for the following reasons: <br />1. Staff has reviewed the Public Procurement Authority competitive bidding process, and confirmed <br />that their competitive bidding requirements are substantially equivalent to those required by the <br />City Charter or the Purchasing Ordinance of the City and <br />2. Staff reviewed the pricing for services obtained by The Public Procurement Authority and found <br />the prices to be competitive and reasonable, ensuring value is obtained for the City <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funding for the $202,935.13 purchase already exists within the Police Department's budget. Approval of <br />this expenditure will have no increase or fiscal impact to the City, other than that which was previously <br />anticipated, and for which funds were budgeted. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br />This is not a project under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as defined in CEQA Guidelines, <br />Section 15378, because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical change <br />in the environment. <br />PUBLIC NOTICE <br />Public Notification was achieved by posting the agenda, with the agenda items being listed, at least 72 <br />hours prior to the meeting <br />City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcitV.org <br />395 <br />
