JSU requested approval by the Department of Information Technology Services (ITS) of an exemption to lease the equipment from the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration, Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet Management State Contract. Said exemption was approved by the ITS Board on December 15, 2015. The five (5) year agreement will become effective March 1, 2016 and terminate on February 28, 2021. The total cost of the contract is $2,526,180. For years 2016 through 2020 the annual cost will be $505,236. This rate includes 152 multifunctional devices, Xerox secure access, HID care reader, Xerox smart document travel software, server-fax kits for Right fax integration, on-site maintenance, toner, supplies, and services. Funds are available from Education and General funds. The agreement which has been reviewed and approved by the Attorney General’s Office is on file at the Board Office. 2. MSU – Approved the request to enter into a services agreement with Key Solutions, Inc. to install and maintain software to manage compliance with federal regulations concerning research on animal and human subjects. Specifically, the software will be used by divisions within MSU’s Office of Research Compliance – the Institutional Review Board, the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, and the Laboratory Animal Resource Division. Researchers will use the software to submit and manage compliance protocols whereas staff will use the software to maintain records and generate reports. Federal regulations mandate that compliance protocols must be approved and followed by all individuals using animal and human subjects in order to receive federal funding. This includes externally-funded research projects as well as departmentally-funded research projects that are part of academic coursework. The term of the agreement is five years effective as of the date of the last signature. The total cost of the five- year agreement is $388,350. The cost for Year 1 is $235,750 and includes software license fees, installation and configuration fees, training, and annual maintenance. The cost for Year 2 to Year 5 is $38,150 per year and includes annual maintenance. Funds are available from General funds.

Provided that there were no changes to the subscription, the cost for Year 2 was capped at a 2% increase over the cost for Year 1. Due to transfers to and from the core collection, the cost for Year 2 will exceed the 2% increase by $4,405.61. Therefore, the new cost for Year 2 will be $480,094.71. The end of the agreement will remain December 31, 2016. The amendment increases the cost for Year 2 of the agreement by $4,405.61 from $475,689.10 to $480,094.71.

In accordance with Board Policy 707.03 Approval of Prepayment for Goods and Services, the Board also approved the request to prepay the company to build this custom equipment. The Department of Defense through the Army Research Office, the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) issued a Program Announcement Number PA-AFOSR-2014-0001 titled “Fiscal Year 2015 Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP)”. The purpose of DURIP is to provide funds to procure equipment only.

This is the only pulsed laser shearography system available that will allow recording of phase map shearograms using pulsed lasers. The system is based on unique technology patented by Metrolaser, Inc. This is the only system that will meet the requirements for work stated in Office of Naval Research contract # N00014-15-1-2894 (UM acct 350210226A). The period of performance for this work is January 21, 2016 through July 31, 2016. The confidentiality obligations will remain in effect during the Period of Performance and for a period of five (5) years thereafter. The cost of the procurement of the custom double pulse shearography system with pixelated, instantaneous phase shifting interferometry is $570,520. Funding is provided by The University of Mississippi Office of Naval Research contract #N00014-15-1-2894 (UM acct 350210226A). The agreement which has been reviewed and approved by the Attorney General’s Office is on file at the Board Office.
