BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: November 6, 2012
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: John Vaughn
SUBJECT: Approval of Fuel Card Agreement
DEPARTMENT: Fleet
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Fleet Operations seeks to "piggyback" on the State of Florida's fuel
card agreement with Wright Express. County costs will be the same paid by the State of Florida.
BACKGROUND: Our current universal fuel card provider Comdata no longer is under
contract with the State of Florida for fueling services. To maintain favorable pricing Fleet
Operations wants to “piggyback” on the current State of Florida Fleet Fuel Card Program for the
use of Wright Express fuel cards. Transition to Wright Express will be seamless to our
departments with the Wright Express cards going in place prior to ending our use of Comdata
cards. Wright Express offers pay-at-the-pump fueling at all major brand gasoline and diesel fuel
locations across the USA. At commercial stations drivers will have the choice of using either
Wright Express or Fuelman cards. At Fleet Operations' in-house sites we will continue to use the
Fuelman cards only. The price for Wright Express fuel will be retail less 1.45%.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize staff to "piggyback" on State of Florida Fleet Fuel Card
Program by entering into contract with Wright Express and authorize the Chairman to sign the
addendum to the fuel cards service agreement.
