Analysis

The Parks, Arts and Recreation Department produces the Life is Grand Magazine for Grand Prairie residents.  Distributed three times per year, the magazine provides general information on Parks & Recreation events, programs, activities and recreation center classes.

 

Notice of bid #19148 was advertised in the Fort Worth Star Telegram, and Bid Sync; it was distributed to 25 vendors. There were no Grand Prairie vendors available for this commodity.  Four bids were received as shown on attachment A.

 

The award was based on best value criteria set up in the specification, including material markup, reputation, quality of service, price, past relationship with the city and other municipalities, and other relevant criteria as listed in the specification.

 

Midway Press meets specifications and is recommended for award.
