Contract Control Number: 201735118
Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Swingle Inc.
Type and Scope of services to be performed:
Swingle provides services related to tree maintenance throughout the City, including locations on private property. Services include:
• tree management and pruning (deadwood, hazardous limbs, for clearance of streets, traffic, vision, etc.)
• tree removal
• stump removal
Amendment does not change scope.
Location (if applicable):
WBE/MBE/DBE goals that were applied, if applicable (construction, design, Airport concession contracts):
Are WBE/MBE/DBE goals met (if applicable)?
Is the contract new/a renewal/extension or amendment?
Was this contractor selected by competitive process or sole source? Non-competitive: An RFP for services was advertised on 2/23/2017; the responses were minimal with only one successful proposer. Due to the successful proposer being unable to maintain and complete the entire work load a justification letter was approved to contract with Swingle.

Exhibit B (rate sheet) will be updated due to an increase in the prevailing wage rate that affects Swingle’s operations. The additional year will allow for use of the tree contract to be used city wide to assist other internal city agencies with specialty case tree issues. Additionally, there may be large and/or special projects, along with the neighborhood sidewalk repair program, that may need to address tree issues.
