RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Public Defender, a purchase order with CompuCom Systems, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $198,777 for software application licensing for the period June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$198,776.95 total over 5 years; 100% General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
In 2005 the County's Department of Information Technology (DoIT) negotiated a five-year Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft, and encouraged departments to take advantage of the savings inherent in that agreement. The Public Defender did so, and because of its size entered into an agreement separately with CompuCom Systems, Inc., the authorized Microsoft vendor in this region. The latest five-year agreement is expiring on May 30, 2015, and the Public Defender's Office will require a renewal of this agreement as a software solution for general operations.
