The Fleet Management Division is requesting to utilize Hillsborough County Public Schools Contract #15045-DST, with GCR Tire Centers, of Nashville, Tennessee, for the purchase of tires, retreading and related goods and services. Specifically, the contract will be utilized to purchase Firestone tires and Bandag retread tires. Purchases will only be for tires, services and related goods that are not available from the existing contracted suppliers, 3D Tire and Action Gator.
The City’s intent is to continue using the current contracts for roadside tire replacement/service with 3D Tire and Action Gator at the existing utilization level. Prior to the end of the existing contracts, a new solicitation will be issued for this scope of work.
The current contract term is effective through July 28, 2016 with the option to renew for four (4) additional one (1) year periods. This is an indefinite quantity contract. Actual expenditures will vary as usage will be on an as-needed basis at the established unit prices and available funding. Based on prior usage reports and information provided by the primary user, the estimated annual expenditure is $623,844.00.
No City Certified M/WBE suppliers are registered to supply Firestone tires and Bandag retread tires.
