SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT - REQUEST APPROVAL FOR SINGLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT OF DETENTION HARDWARE, EQUIPMENT, AND INSTALLATION SERVICES (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
The Sheriff's Department operates and maintains over twenty secure detention and/or reentry and patrol facilities throughout the county. The County of San Diego (County) maintenance staff must purchase parts and provide repairs and maintenance to replace critical components such as institutional doors and frames, locking devices and keys, accessories such as food flaps and package passes, and detention furnishings such as bunks, tables, and desks within these secure environments in an efficient, reliable, and standardized manner each and every time. Southern Folger Contracting Inc (Southern Folger) is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of these products.
It is therefore imperative that all parts and components and installation services used at these facilities are done with OEM parts and technicians. The use of OEM parts and technicians ensures that all components are designed to the exact same specifications and will operate seamlessly when replaced and with the same continued warranties. The standardization of OEM parts also allows our county staff to be trained in the regular use and maintenance of these parts across all detention and reentry facilities and patrol stations regardless of their location.
This is a request for single source procurement with Southern Folger Contracting Inc. (Southern Folger) for hardware, equipment, and installation services for an initial term of one-year, plus four option periods of one year each.
