BACKGROUND:
The City Council awarded Contract 23-267 to Galls, LLC on November 21, 2024 for a one-year term from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. The purpose of this contract is to provide uniforms for all staff officers, sworn shift personnel, members of the Fire Prevention Bureau, administrative civilian personnel, and volunteers from the Naperville Emergency Management Agency (NEMA).
Uniform requirements for sworn shift personnel are established in a collective bargaining agreement and must meet National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 1975: Standard on Station/Work Uniforms for Firefighters. A complete set of uniforms is issued to new hires and individual items are replaced as needed based on the condition of the item. Per the collective bargaining agreement, items submitted for replacement may be appropriately repaired rather than replaced if it is reasonable.
DISCUSSION:
This Change Order is requested to increase the amount on the contract by $45,000 due to the number of uniforms purchased for newly hired and promoted personnel.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Uniform purchases for the Fire Department are expensed to the account number listed below. Of the $214,000 approved as part of the 2024 budget related to these items, $164,283 has been expended. The requested change order is accommodated within the budget.
