EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to award Request for Proposal (RFP) 14 -6187 Office Supplies to Staples
Contract and Commercial, Inc., and authorize the Chairman to sign a County Attorney
approved contract.
OBJECTIVE: To provide operating departments with an efficient and low cost contract mechanism to
purchase office related supplies..
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County has an on -going need for office supplies to support the
departments' daily operations. This contract supports all departments within the County as well as
providing the opportunity for other governmental entities to utilize it for their purchases.
A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued by the Purchasing Department on December 16, 2013.
Email notices were sent to three hundred ninety five (395) firms. A total of thirty four (34) firms
requested the solicitation package. Proposals were opened on January 16, 2014; five (5) firms
submitted responses while two (2) additional firms submitted a "no interest" letter. After reviewing
each of the submittals, two firms were deemed non - responsive. CF Motion and Devek Tape did not
provide pricing for all line items, nor did they provide responses to the weighted criteria.
An appointed Selection Committee completed its scoring of each of the proposals and ranked Staples
Contract and Commercial, Inc. as the highest proposer, and the supplier who was best positioned to
meet the County's specifications. In addition to having very competitive pricing on one hundred and
twenty two (122) commonly purchased items, Staples offers a discount of fifty -one (51 %) percent on
their entire product catalog along with lower priced alternative (but equal) branded products.
Purchases will be initiated through a purchase order or purchasing card.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds are available in each department's approved budae:. The annual hisroricall
spend is approximateiv $450.000 per vear.

Time Is Of the Essence
Time for delivery of goods or performance of
services under this Purchase Order is of the

the COUNTY to seek all remedies available
to it at law or in equity. VENDOR agrees to
reimburse the COUNTY for any expenses
incurred in enforcing its rights. VENDOR
further agrees that undiscovered delivery of
nonconforming goods and /or services is not
a waiver of the COUNTY'S right to insist
upon further compliance with all
specifications.
Changes
The COUNTY may at any time and by
written notice make changes to drawings
and specifications, shipping instructions,
quantities and delivery schedules within the
general scope of this Purchase Order.

decrease the cost of, or the time required for
performance of the Purchase Order, an
equitable adjustment in the price and /or
delivery schedule will be negotiated by the
COUNTY and VENDOR. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, VENDOR has an affirmative
obligation to give notice if the changes will
decrease costs. Any claims for adjustment
by VENDOR, must be made within thirty (30)
