This is an informational report and no Council action is required.
DISCUSSION
The Palo Alto Municipal Code (PAMC) authorizes the City Manager to award contracts
for the purchase of supplies (materials and equipment), regardless of the dollar amount.
The PAMC authorizes the City Manager to award contracts for services up to $65,000.
Quarterly reports are required for supply contracts awarded by the City Manager over
$65,000, and for service contracts awarded from $25,000 to $65,000.
The attached report lists service contracts from $25,000 to $65,000 (Attachment A)
awarded from April through June 2003. There were no supply contracts over $65,000
awarded during this time period. Attachment B provides blanket order service contracts
from $25,000 to $65,000 awarded between April and June 2003. (Blanket orders are
service or material contracts established for multiple purchases with a specific vendor for
a specified length of time and dollar amount.) For items where no bids were received,
awards were made in accordance with the Municipal Code. Revisions to the Code are
being drafted by the City Attorney’s Office to clarify the solicitation processes that are
necessary to obtain these services.
