The General Government and Licensing Committee

1. In accordance with Section 71-11.1C of the City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71 (Financial Control), authorized amendments the following Non-Competitive Blanket Contracts for the provision of contracted security guard services at various locations managed by Toronto Public Health:

a. Blanket Contract Number 47023478 issued to Logixx Security Incorporated by an additional amount of $500,000 net of all taxes and charges ($508,800 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries), increasing the value from $1,000,000 net of all taxes and charges ($1,017,600 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries) to $1,500,000 net all taxes and charges ($1,526,400 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries); and

b. Blanket Contract Number 47023486 issued to Northwest Protection Services Limited by an additional amount of $500,000 net of all taxes and charges ($508,800 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries), increasing the value from $1,000,000 net of all taxes and charges ($1,017,600 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries) to $1,500,000 net all taxes and charges ($1,526,400 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries).

The purpose of this report is to request authority for the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management to amend the contract value of two (2) non-competitive procurements for security services provided by Logixx Security Incorporated and Northwest Protection Services Limited at mass immunization clinics across the City. The requested amendments would increase the value of each blanket contract by $500,000 net of all taxes and charges ($508,800 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries), for a cumulative amendment value of $1,000,000 net of all taxes and charges ($1,017,600 net of Harmonized Sales Tax Recoveries).

It is anticipated that the COVID-19 immunization clinics will remain operational and require security services until at least June 1, 2022, or beyond. By amending the blanket contracts, it will allow Corporate Real Estate Management to continue providing contracted security guard services at the clinics without interruption.

The approval of General Government and Licensing Committee is required in accordance with Section 71-11.1C of the Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71 (Financial Control By-law), where the current request exceeds the allowable threshold of $500,000 net of all taxes and charges.
