Report

Summary

This contract will provide uninterruptible power supply (UPS) equipment and associated services and maintenance, which are vital for various City services that require constant, uninterrupted power. The UPS units supply power in the event of an outage, which allows continued operations until power resumes. Some critical operations include 911 call centers, Citywide data rooms, and water production and distribution functions. Additional funds are needed to conduct a replacement and correction of the City of Phoenix Enterprise Data Center (EDC). Replacing the UPS systems will aid the electrical security of the EDC and support the overall reliability and uptime.
