APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, a Participating Addendum with OFS Brands, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000, for the purchase of Furniture, Installation, and Related Services for the period May 1, 2025 through December 31, 2027, under the terms of the Master Contract awarded by Omnia Partners and the Region 4 Education Service Center, a Texas Public Agency, and distributed through OFS Brands, Inc., Countywide.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Product and service costs paid by County Departments. (100% User Departments)
BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County Purchasing Services is requesting approval of a Participating Addendum for the purchase of Furniture, Installation and Related Services offered through OFS Brands, Inc. Products are guaranteed through the master contract awarded by Omnia Partners and the Region 4 Education Service Center, a Texas Public Agency. Approval of the addendum between Contra Costa County and OFS Brands, Inc., allows the County to obtain guaranteed pricing available through the Omnia Partners and the Region 4 Service Center, a Texas Public Agency contract. The purchase will support County Departments with a variety of Furniture, Installation and Related Services, required by County Departments, and provide discounted products and services off published list prices. This will allow County Departments to purchase Furniture, Installation and Related Services for less than they would without this benefit.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without approval of this agreement, the County would be paying full price on Furniture, Installation and Related Service purchases they make today.
