I would hope that this matter can be resolved amicably without litigation and expense. If you need further clarification please call me immediately. Sin y, Antonio G. Cordova Branch Manager Texas Industrial Services. Inc , a Su6srdiary o/ UnrFirst Corporatron -- Memorandum To: Commissioners' Court From: Leonard Odom, Jr. Date: 09/14/1994 Subject: Uniforms for Road & Bridge Employees For the past 3 years we have used UniFirst to supply uniforms to the Road & Bridge employees. During the budget process we were asked to check uniform pricing to be sure we were in line with our budget request. We called all three companies that service the Kerrville area, gave them the specifications and asked each company to subnut a bid. Unifirst and Cintas submitted bids, and SR Service Uniform Rental told us they could not meet the specifications. The following is a summary of the attached bids: Weekly Cost Unifirst CintAs Current New Price Savings Per Week Jeans & Cotton Shirts (per man) 7.80 8.00 7.70 14 X .30 = 4.20 Jeans & Poly/Cotton Shirt (per man) Poly/Cotton Pants & Shirts (per man) 5.65 Executive Service (per man) Pleated Pants (per man) Floor Mat (1) Environmental Charge 9.80 8.30 7.50 6.00 9.80 8.30 6.85 3X.65=1.95 5.70 3 X .30 = .90 8.95 3 X .85 = .85 5.30 5.25 5.25 4.65 10.50 6% of Invoice 4.50 1 X 3.00= 3.00 1 X .60 = .60 1 X 6.00= 6.00 17.50 Each item is cheaper from CintAs. When you multiply a savings of at least $17.50 @ 52 weeks there is a savings of $910.00 per year. That is a significant different in the price. There have been problems with Unifirst on replacing worn out uniforms. Some of the uniforms issued in 1991 are still being laundered and returned. Unifirst charges an emblem charge each time they replace an article of clothing, CintAs will not. Therefore, we chose to go with CintAs. TE~C~S_.INn~ICT.°.LA:. SVCS.
