COUNCIL REPORT FOR ITEM *4-g

City Council Report   
Date:  September 11, 2017

To:  City Council
Through: Mike Kennington, Chief Financial Officer
From:  Edward Quedens, MPA, C.P.M., CPPO, Business Services Director 
Matt Bauer, MBA, CPPO, CPPB, CPSM, Procurement Administrator
Subject: Two-Year Term Contract for the PC Cycle Replacement Program Purchases of Computers, Ruggedized Laptops and Tablets for Various City Departments as requested by the Information Technology Department (Citywide) 

Purpose and Recommendation 
Council is requested to approve the purchase of Computers, Ruggedized Laptops & Tablets for the next two years, as recommended. 
The Information Technology Department and Purchasing recommend authorizing purchases using the State of Arizona, National IPA and US Communities cooperative contracts with Dell Marketing LP; Apple Computer, Inc.; Panasonic Solutions; and Insight Public Sector; cumulatively not to exceed $1,875,000 annually, based on estimated quantities. 

Background / Discussion 
The PC Cycle Replacement Program has proven itself to be an efficient, effective approach to keeping the appropriate technology on City employees’ desktops.  With changing technologies and work processes, however, our need for flexibility in the planning, purchasing and provisioning of end user computing devices has increased.  For example, instead of a laptop, a tablet might be a more efficient tool in accomplishing work goals or a fully ruggedized laptop might be suitably replaced by a less expensive semi-ruggedized unit.  This two-year contract method for procurement with multiple vendors provides that flexibility. 
The contract award amount reflects the ITD’s funded and forecasted Lifecycle amounts for Cycle Replacement for each fiscal year plus estimated supplemental purchases that individual departments may request throughout these two years outside of the Cycle program.  Approval of this request assures that the ITD can continue to provide appropriate technology to employees and helps to prepare the City for the deployment of Windows 10.  Because of changing technologies and work processes, having the flexibility to provide different types of devices supplied by the different manufacturers is advantageous.  
 2
IT staff evaluated quotes from the largest PC vendors across a range of hardware options and found that pricing combined with maintenance considerations, the above recommended vendors give the City the best overall value.  IT recommends utilizing these cooperative contracts for the remainder of their contract terms.  Should the contracted entities opt to renew the contract, the City will at that time determine if it is in the City’s best interest to renew as well.  IT is aware that contracts with Apple and Panasonic expire in 2018 and Dell expires in 2020. 
Using these cooperative contracts is beneficial for the City.  All three cooperative contracts were competitively bid nationally and provide favorable volume pricing. 

Alternatives 
Council may choose not to authorize the purchase and new responses will be solicited. 

Fiscal Impact 
Funding for PC Cycle Replacement Program Purchases is available in the Information Technology Department FY 2017/18 budget.  Purchase estimates for FY 2018/19 are based on historical budget allocations for Cycle Replacement. 

Supplemental purchases are funded by the requesting Department’s budget.   
Coordinated With  Information Technology and Purchasing
