Payment terms, pricing structures, and any volume discounts will be negotiated as part of the vendor selection process. The contract encompasses routine and nonroutine procurement for fiscal years 2025-2026, with all purchases subject to the city's approved vendor list and procurement regulations. Vendors selected for this requirements contract will serve as ongoing suppliers to both departments, with the potential for consistent annual revenue based on departmental uniform replacement and equipment needs.
