INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The Fire Department is seeking a consolidated contract to cover all warranties and maintenance for in-
service medical equipment purchases from Stryker Sales, LLC the sole provider.
The Fire Department currently uses a variety of Stryker equipment on all department apparatuses which
allows paramedics from all stations to receive the same training and operator protocols related to patient
transport. Department ambulances (8 frontline and 3 reserves) utilize the Stryker Power Lift System, Power
Load Stretchers, Lifepak Defibrillators, stair chairs, and Lucas cardiopulmonary resuscitation devices
(CPR). Each department engine, truck, and quint apparatus (8 frontline and 4 reserves) also carry Lifepaks
Defibrillators. Additionally, all medical patient care equipment manufactured by Stryker is fully
interchangeable with the medical equipment in the primary hospitals that patients are transported to.
Through Styker’s ProCare Plan the department receives equipment software updates, equipment inspection,
and replacement and repair of proprietary equipment parts. Stryker will obtain proprietary parts for all
medical devices and maintain all medical equipment as specified to comply with warranty and use
requirements. Based on a historical spend and future projections the recommended not to exceed (NTE)
for this contract is $1,000,000 for a total potential five (5) year contract.
Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code provides that procurement of sole source commodities and
services are exempt from competitive bidding, if over $50,000, shall be awarded by the governing body.
