Information
Subject
Approval to purchase ammunition for the Police Department from Gulf States Distributors under Tennessee Statewide Contract #331
Background
Long lead times continue to be a problem in the manufacturing and delivery of ammunition. Ammunition manufacturers have been impacted by an increase in demand for their products and supply chain issues in manufacturing their products. Currently, manufacturers are estimating 12- to18-month delivery times for orders. To ensure the Police Department can meet the State of Tennessee mandatory annual training requirements with firearms, we must have ammunition. It is important that the City recognize the long delivery times associated with items such as ammunition and order these items well in advance, even if the items are not budgeted for the current fiscal year.
Staff requests approval to pre-order all the ammunition for the Police Department being proposed in the FY 2024 draft annual budget. This order will include:
