Background:
The City solicited Bid #25.109 for the supply of medical oxygen and industrial gases. To ensure transparency and encourage competitive participation, the bid was advertised in the Tulsa World and on the City of Broken Arrow website. Three responsive bids were opened and after consideration by the governing body, recommendation to utilize American Medical Gas was approved at the October 15, 2024 meeting. The contract was later approved by the governing body for the first renewal at the June 16, 2025 meeting.
The current contract renewal runs through June 30, 2026, and includes the refill, lease, and rental of cylinders used by various City departments.
Based on the consistently excellent service provided under the existing contract, staff recommends renewing the agreement with American Medical Gas for an additional term. Their proven reliability, responsiveness, and ability to meet the City’s needs make them the preferred vendor. Additionally, pricing has remained unchanged since the original bid award in 2024, providing continued value and cost stability for the City.
Approval of this second renewal will guarantee uninterrupted, timely, and efficient delivery of these essential gases through June 30, 2027.
Cost: Rates as set out in agreement
Funding Source: Various department operational accounts
