(Laura Rader; [email protected] and Eric VonSchimmelmann; [email protected]). Staff Summary: Each year we bring the vendors that we do a majority of the IT purchases with to the Board of Supervisors for approval. While many of the individual purchases and projects are not significant themselves, when combined together throughout the year they have a significant total cost to the city. This year is no exception and we are requesting you approve these major vendors for IT Hardware, Software and Services not to exceed $1,000,000 in total. This amount was derived from looking at our historical yearly purchases and taking into account the additional CIP projects that were approved for FY18. Agenda Action: Formal Action/Motion Time Requested: 5 minutes Proposed Motion I move to approve the purchase of Information Technology Hardware, through joinder contract with Insight Public Sector through US Communities Contract #4400006644; ConvergedOne, Inc./Cisco through NASPO (National Association State Procurement Officials) Contract #AR233; Dell through NASPO Contract #MNWNC- 108; Apple through NASPO Contract #MNWNC-102; CDW Government LLC through NIPA (National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance); and SHI International Corp. through NASPO Contract #ADSPO16- 130651 for an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 from various city accounts as approved in the FY18 budget. Board’s Strategic Goal Efficient Government Previous Action NA Background/Issues & Analysis Annually we receive approximately $500,000 in Technology Hardware, Software and Service requests from various departments throughout the city. In the FY18 budget process we were approved for multiple CIP projects estimated to have an additional $500,000 in hardware and software from these vendors bringing this to a total of $1,000,000. To receive the best pricing for the city it is beneficial to join onto larger state or nation wide contracts. While we are guaranteed the contract pricing we are not locked into this pricing which allows the vendors sometimes to use this as a guideline and offer us better pricing. Final Version: 12/04/15 Applicable Statute, Code, Policy, Rule or Regulation NRS 332.195 Financial Information Is there a fiscal impact? Yes No If yes, account name/number: City wide accounts that were approved in the FY18 budget. Is it currently budgeted?
