RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD), to execute a purchase order with R-Computer, Inc., in the amount not to exceed $106,467 to procure 40 network printers to replace existing printers in the department's district offices and 125 mobile printers to be utilized to equip the department's new mobile workforce for the period of April 15, 2017 through June 30, 2017. (10% County; 48% State; 42% Federal)

BACKGROUND:

New computer printers are needed to replace existing printers in the Employment and Human Services Department's (EHSD) district offices and to be utilized to equip the department's new mobile workforce. These printers will provide scanning capabilities to EHSD's existing field staff as well as enable the department to expand it's services to the community.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Employment and Human Services Department will not be able to replace older printers in the district offices and provide printers to the new mobile workforce.
