REASONS: A Blanket Purchase Order (BPO) is an agreement to purchase goods (and services) from a specific supplier over a defined period of time, up to a maximum dollar amount. A blanket order generally includes established prices, terms, and conditions for a defined period of time, although without specifying quantities. Shipments are to be made when and as required by the purchaser (Just -in -time Shipping), which, in most cases, is the end user department (Public Works, CCS, Building, Information Technology etc.). This Resolution authorizes a blanket purchase order with Staples for Office Supplies, IT equipment and other supplies for the fiscal year 2024-2025 in an amount not to exceed $75,000.00. The City shall utilize State of Florida Contract No. 44111513-17-01 which expires 04/17/27 to purchase office and other supplies from Staples, in accordance with Section 62-13(c) of the City Code. The collective buying power of these unified contracts, via the State of Florida delivers superior value and savings for public agencies nationwide. Piggybacking the State of Florida contract allows the city to take advantage of substantial discounts, which can range from 21% off or more on office supplies compared to an account that is not linked to this piggyback contract. Frequent purchases made by City departments include, but are not limited to, office supplies, office furniture, IT supplies, breakroom supplies (non -polystyrene supplies, as part of the city's Ecommited Item Number: 10.E 150
