EXPLANATION:
As allowed by National City Municipal Code Section 2.60.260, this award will be made as a result of competitive
bids solicited by the Houston -Galveston Area Council (H-GAC), where MSA Safety Sales LLC provides a 15%
discount off the list price and was determined to be the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, and was awarded
contract # EE08-19: Emergency Medical & Rescue Equipment for Self -Contained Breathing Apparatus, SCBA's
National City's cost will be $337,559.00 that includes a $70,930.04 discount ($367,095.41 with tax). This purchase
brings forward a key life -safety item that allows us to replace our SCBA masks and associated equipment that are
at end of life; we are finding it increasingly difficult to find replacement parts. The SCBA bottles can no longer
undergo hydrostatic testing.
The H-GAC bid fully complies with National City Municipal Code Section 2.60.260. Additional market research has
been conducted to consider current pricing, other brands, other purchasing options, and it is in the City's best
interest to take advantage of this opportunity.

provision of any requested PPB, and agrees to furnish the PPB within ten business (10) days of receipt of END

ARTICLE 10: CHANGE OF STATUS
Contractor shall immediately notify H-GAC, in writing, of ANY change in ownership, control,
dealership/franchisee status, Motor Vehicle license status, or name. Contractor shall offer written guidance to
advise H-GAC if this Agreement shall be affected in any way by such change. H-GAC shall have the right to
determine whether or not such change is acceptable, and to determine what action shall be warranted, up to and
including cancellation of Agreement.
ARTICLE 11: TEXAS MOTOR VEHICLE BOARD LICENSING
All that deal in motor vehicles shall maintain current licenses that are required by the Texas Motor Vehicle
Commission Code. If at any time during this Agreement term, any required Contractor license is denied,
