RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent or designee to execute, on behalf of the Chief Information Officer, a purchase order with International Business Machines Corporation in an amount not to exceed $300,000 for maintenance and support of County mainframe computer software for the period July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, under the IBM Agreement for Licensed Programs between the County and IBM.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of $300,000 is budgeted under Org# 1060, Fiscal Year 2019/20 and charged out to user departments via DoIT's monthly billing process.

BACKGROUND:

The Department of Information Technology (DoIT) licenses, on behalf of the County, mainframe computer software from IBM, and receives support and maintenance for the software under the Acquisition for IBM Licensed Programs, and IBM International Agreement for Acquisition of Software Maintenance, which provide for annual renewal of support. IBM invoices DoIT on a monthly basis depending on the level of support used by DoIT. The Chief Information Officer needs authority to make payment for mainframe software support provided under the agreements.



CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County mainframe would not receive necessary maintenance to remain operational.
