Title
Department of Transportation recommending the Board approve and authorize the Chair to sign the Second Amendment to Agreement for Services 2801 with Genuine Parts Company doing business as Napa Sacramento Distribution Center for fleet vehicle and equipment parts and inventory program services, amending the business name and other minor administrative changes determined to be necessary, with no changes to the not-to-exceed amount, rates, or term.
FUNDING: Road Fund (State) and Fleet Service Internal Fund (Local).
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
Department of Transportation, Maintenance and Operations Division (Transportation), currently utilizes an agreement with Riebes Auto Parts to provide on-site fleet vehicle and equipment parts and inventory program services. The First Amendment was approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 4, 2021 extending the term of the agreement through December 24, 2024. However, after the First Amendment was executed, Riebes Auto Parts was acquired by Genuine Parts Company, doing business as Napa Sacramento Distribution Center. The Second Amendment makes the necessary changes to Agreement #2801 to continue to do business with the vendor under the new business name.
The Second Amendment to Agreement #2801 also includes minor administrative changes to various articles that were determined necessary in the approval process. These changes include: updating the Assignment Article to reflect the new vendor name, updating the Compensation for Services Article to reflect the new vendor name, updating the Notice to Parties Article to update the County and Consultant's notice recipients; replacing the Consultant to County, Independent Contractor, Default, Termination, and Cancellation, Indemnity, and Conflict of Interest articles in their entirety to address recent changes in state law and revised standard County contract language. Similarly, three (3) new articles, Force Majeure, Waiver and Electronic Signature, were added to for the same purpose.
ALTERNATIVES
The Board could chose to not approve the Second Amendment, however that would prevent Transportation from utilizing the inventory parts and services the vendor currently provides. Transportation would then need to move forward with filling a permanent Parts Technician position in order to provide parts ordering and inventory management for all three shops.
