CC MEETING: February 6, 2007 DATE: January 19, 2007 TO: Leonard A. Martin, City Manager FROM: Thomas P. Guilfoy, Director of Managed Competition and Strategic Planning SUBJECT: FACILITY SERVICES DIVISION COMPETITIVE ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDATION BACKGROUND: Since 2004, the city of Carrollton’s Facility Services Division (CFSD) has been preparing for Managed Competition. Over the last two years, several internal and external operational and competitive assessments have been completed that identified various strengths and weaknesses in the CFSD operation and recommended changes in systems, work processes, staffing and performance management to improve productivity, service quality, cost-competitiveness and customer satisfaction. In September 2005, a comprehensive internal Managed Competition Feasibility Study was completed. The study found that CFSD was “partially competitive” with best-in-class facility management and maintenance service providers. In response to the study findings, CFSD proposed to re-engineer and restructure their operations to become more competitive. In November 2005, the City Manager directed staff to prepare for a competitive bidding process to determine the “best value” provider. A Request for Bid (RFB #07-001) document for facility services was developed and released in October 2006. The deadline for submission of bids was November 22, 2006. The RFB evaluation team determined that the CFSD bid response provided the best value for the City of Carrollton.
