RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Chief Information Officer, Department of Information Technology, a blanket purchase order with Graybar Electric Company in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 for the purchase of radio and telecommunications parts and equipment, data communication equipment, cables, and related products, for the period February 1, 2023 through January 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The costs for this are charged back to the ordering departments or agencies through DoIT's monthly billing process. (100% User Departments)

BACKGROUND:

The Department of Information Technology (DoIT) requires the ability to readily purchase parts, supplies and equipment to complete work order requests and jobs submitted by our internal and external customers.

Graybar Electric Company's pricing is pursuant to the U.C. Communities Contract Master Agreement No. EV-2370 solicited by the City of Kansas City, Missouri and its subsequent Modification of Contract No. EV-2370.1 which extends the termination date from February 1, 2023 through January 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this is not approved, DolT's ability to readily obtain the parts necessary to respond to customers' needs will be significantly reduced and their needs will not be met in a timely manner.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
