(Fire) PREPARED BY: Frank Parra DEPARTMENT: Fir PHONE: 619-336-4551 APPROVED BY: _ EXPLANATION: Over the last eleven years, the National City Fire Department (NCFD) has contracted with the San Diego Sports Medicine and Family Health Center (SDSMFHC) for wellness program services. An extension of the last Agreement expired on October 30, 2017. As a result, the NCFD would now like to enter into a new 5-year Agreement. As allowed by NCMC Section 2.60.110(B)(1)(2), - Formal bidding procedure —Generally: Formal competitive bidding may be waived by the City Council, or the City Manager within the limits of contracting authority, where it has been determined that: (1) competitive bidding is or would be impractical or impossible, and (2) the circumstances are such that no obvious, ascertainable advantage to the City could result. Over the last few years, formal bid process attempts by the City of San Diego did not yield any other qualified service providers, because SDSMFHC is uniquely qualified. There are no other providers of this type of service, and there is no adequate other substitute for what the NCFD needs; and because there are no other sources of this service, there would be no competitive advantage to bidding. Staff believes it is in the City's best interest to take advantage of this opportunity and would ask the City Council to waive the formal bid process. In order to continue the Wellness Program, the NCFD needs to have an Agreement in place in order to participate. Staff recommends the City Council waive the formal bid process and authorize the Mayor to execute a 5-year Agreement vith the SDSMFHC.
