Report
Summary
The contract provides departments Citywide with the ability to purchase two-way radios and a wide range of accessories, services and support. Industry standards mandate five- to seven-year replacement cycles for radios and approximately 75 percent of the radio equipment is for public safety purposes. City departments also have ongoing two-way radio equipment needs to ensure reliable communication for their daily operations. This extension is necessary to allow additional time to establish a new cooperative purchasing agreement for these products and services.
Contract Term
Upon approval, the contract term will be extended through Nov. 28, 2022.
Financial Impact
The aggregate value of this contract is $27,500,000 and no additional funds are needed for the extension. Funds are available in the various City departments' budgets.
