This is for an annual contract for fleet parts, supplies, and inventory management with Genuine Parts Company, doing business as NAPA Integrated Business Solutions (IBS) in the amount not to exceed $2,229,860.

Fleet Services requests authorization for an annual contract with Genuine Parts Company, doing business as NAPA Integrated Business Solutions (IBS), in an amount not to exceed $2,229,860 to provide on-site fleet parts, supplies, and inventory management. Fleet Services supports approximately 2,100 City vehicles and pieces of equipment and requires reliable access to a broad range of automotive, truck, fire apparatus, and equipment parts. 

The NAPA IBS program provides a customized, streamlined on-site parts management system, with parts available on an as-needed basis. Its supply network includes more than 6,000 NAPA stores, 60 distribution centers nationwide, and access to over 1,400 external suppliers. Outsourcing parts operations and inventory management is intended to reduce upfront inventory investment, exposure to obsolete parts, administrative and transaction costs, shrinkage, and parts expenses. Greater on-demand availability is expected to shorten vehicle downtime, improve technician productivity, and enhance Fleet Services shop efficiency.

This action supports the City’s high-performing government goal by helping Fleet Services maintain essential vehicles and equipment used across City departments. Continuing the arrangement avoids the disruption of transitioning parts operations; however, contract cost and vendor performance require ongoing oversight. An alternative is City-managed parts purchasing and inventory, which would require internal staffing, inventory investment, and administrative resources. The historical agenda item did not identify additional unintended consequences. The parties hereby agree to extend the term of the Agreement until the first to occur of such date as the Statewide Contract terminates or expires, or the earlier termination of the Agreement in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of the Agreement. Per section 2-4154 of the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, the City may purchase goods or services through the use of a state contract. The contract used for this procurement is State of Georgia Contract#99999-SPD-G20281203 . It was competitively bid by the State of Georgia and expires on 12/3/2028. Delivery: As requested.
