RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Employment and Human Services Department, a Purchase Order with CDW Government LLC, in an amount not to exceed $278,625, to procure 500 Citrix licenses for the period April 16, 2023 through April 15, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will increase expenditures by up to $278,625 and will be paid out of Administrative Overhead, which is 58% Federal, 36% State and 6% County General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

The department needs to renew its Citrix environment to continue to support users working from home. The department solicited three bids from different vendors; this proposed Vendor was the lowest bid. Citrix is the key system used by the department for remote access to the department's network, which is critical for a mobile workforce implementation in the department. The department is requesting execution of a Purchase Order to procure 500 Citrix user licenses from the Vendor under a California NVP software contract (ADSPO16-130652 7-16-70-37)

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In accordance with Administrative Bulletin No. 611.0, County Departments are required to get Board approval for single item purchases greater than $200,000.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the department will be unable to move forward with a technology upgrade to maintain Citrix access.
