DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On behalf of Fire Rescue, Procurement is requesting approval to standardize the use of Armor Tuff Flooring. This flooring solution includes professional installation by the manufacturer and comes with a 25-year lifetime warranty. Due to ongoing issues with epoxy bay floors-such as wear, bubbling, cracking, and peeling-Fire Rescue is seeking a more durable alternative. Armor Tuff’s ultra-high-performance PVC polymer industrial-grade interlocking floor tiles offer superior resistance to impact, moisture, and abrasion. These tiles maintain their shape, do not crack, and provide reliable protection even under extreme heat or cold conditions.
Attached for review is the bid exemption form. Pending approval at today’s meeting, the form will be presented for the Chairman’s signature.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; annual expenditure of $200,000. Funding comes from EF300522-562101 - Fire, Rescue and EMS Fund.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve and authorize the Chairman to execute the Standardization for Armor Tuff Flooring and allow staff to purchase the equipment listed under 25ST-101.
