Police Uniforms, Accessories, and Miscellaneous Equipment <br />March 5, 2024 <br />Page 2 <br />4 <br />0 <br />7 <br />0 <br />Proposal (RFP). Goodies, LLC has since been acquired by L.N. Curtis & Sons, doing <br />business as Curtis Blue Line (Curtis). The agreements have expired and purchase <br />orders with lower thresholds have been issued since then. A new RFP is being <br />prepared and is nearly finalized. In order to continue to purchase the critical uniforms, <br />accessories, and equipment while the RFP process is completed, new agreements are <br />required. These agreements will also allow payments to the vendors for uniforms and <br />services that exceed the existing purchase orders maximum amounts. <br />Santa Ana Ordinance No. NS-3041 authorizes the City to purchase against contracts <br />awarded by any public agency employing a competitive bid process. Sourcewell, a <br />cooperative government purchasing agency, awarded a contract to Galls (Contract No. <br />011221-GAL) for body armor and related accessories, and a contract to Curtis (Contract <br />No. 090122-LNC) for law enforcement uniforms, accessories, and equipment. The <br />County of Orange awarded two contracts to Galls (Contract No. MA-026-22011072 and <br />No. MA-060-21011643) for law enforcement uniforms, accessories, and supplies. By <br />leveraging the procurement power through cooperative purchasing, the City of Santa <br />Ana is able to obtain nationally vetted, high quality products at competitive volume <br />pricing, and is in accordance with the City’s existing purchasing guidelines. <br />Staff intends to complete the RFP process within the next twelve months. Upon <br />completion and award of the new contract(s), these two agreements will be terminated. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The current fiscal year funding is available in the FY 2023-24 budget and future fiscal <br />year funding will be included in the proposed budgets for City Council consideration as <br />follows: <br />Fiscal <br />Year <br />Accounting Unit <br />– Account No.Fund Description <br />Accounting Unit – <br />Account No. <br />Description <br />Amount <br />FY 23-24 01114450-63001 General Fund <br />Police CDC, <br />Miscellaneous <br />Operating Expenses <br />$300,000 <br />FY 23-24 01116540-63001 General Fund <br />PBA Community <br />Preservation, <br />Miscellaneous <br />Operating Expenses <br />$ 5,000 <br />FY 24-25 01114450-63001 General Fund <br />Police CDC, <br />Miscellaneous <br />Operating Expenses <br />$275,000 <br />FY 24-25 011165XX- <br />63001 General Fund <br />PBA Various, <br />Miscellaneous <br />Operating Expenses <br />$ 15,000 <br />  <br />  <br />City Council 16 – 2 3/5/2024
