AWARD BIDS/REJECT BIDS/APPROVE REQUEST TO READVERTISE FOR THE
RECEIPr OF BIDS - PAINT AND PAINT SUPPLIES
Mr. Ge rge Zana, Purchasing Manager, Division of Equipment
Servic s, advised that based on a review of the bids submitted on
April 18, 1994, for paint and paint supplies, the following
recomm ndations are made:
Reject Items 1 through 61 and Item 63 and rebid. The
offer for bids was made on a divisible basis. Awarding
these items on a divisible basis would result in
confusion to the user departments. A product such as a
paint roller or paint brush would result in purchasing
different sizes or grades of the same product from
different vendors. It could potentially allow a
department to favor a vendor by selectively purchasing
certain sizes or quality of products.

JLAR MEETIN(
MAY 16, 1994
The rebid would be made on the basis of total value for
this group of products (i.e., bid prices extended by
estimated quantities shown in offer). This will result
in purchasing from one vendor. This would provide City
departments with a more efficient way to acquire these
sixty-two (62) items, which have an estimated annual
usage of $7,000.00.
