BACKGROUND:
Ocala Police Department has utilized the State of Florida Department of Management Services' (DMS) Term Contract for Defense Products (Contract No. 46000000-21-STC) to procure ammunition since 2021. Using a competitively solicited and awarded State of Florida contract enables ammunition to be ordered and supplied quickly as needed.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
Contract No. 46000000-21-STC was originally awarded by the State of Florida to Dana Safety Supply, Inc., Lawmen's and Shooters' Supply, Inc., Safariland, LLC, and Galls, LLC, for the provision of firearms, ammunition, bladed weapons, crowd control equipment, security equipment, personal safety devises, public safety training equipment, and related accessories for a term of three years from October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2024. On April 4, 2024, the State of Florida renewed the contract for an additional term through September 30, 2027.

As a political subdivision of Florida, the City of Ocala qualifies as an eligible user of DMS agreements under Rule 60A-1.001, Florida Administrative Code. DMS agreements have been competitively solicited by the State of Florida and evaluated and determined by the Florida Secretary of Management Services to be cost-effective and to afford best value. The State publishes pricing sheets for reference.

Expenditures will continue to be tracked under Munis Contract No. OPD/211049.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds will come from two budgeted accounts:
001-018-831-521-52-52030 and 001-018-822-521-52-52030.
