DATE: June 06, 2023
TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: Robert W. Bash, Director, Internal Services/Chief Information Officer
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 2 to Agreement with Verizon Connect NWF Inc.
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute Amendment No. 2 to Purchasing Agreement P-22-048 with Verizon Connect NWF Inc. for products and services related to vehicle tracking services, extending the term by one year from March 31, 2024 to March 26, 2025, and increasing the maximum compensation payable by $335,480 to a total of $503,000.
REPORT
There is no additional Net County Cost associated with the recommended action, which will allow the Internal Services Department (ISD)-Fleet Services division to continue providing vehicle tracking services to County departments. The increase to the maximum amount payable under the agreement will address the higher than anticipated services needs for the County. This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
Should your Board not approve the recommended action, the County will need to find alternative methods for current and active vehicle tracking services on County vehicles, and such tracking services would cease after March 31, 2024, causing the need to bid for vehicle tracking software and spend numerous staff hours converting all County Fleet vehicles to the new system.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. Approval of the recommended amendment will increase the maximum compensation payable by $335,480 to a total of $503,000. ISD recuperates cost for this service through departmental rates. Sufficient appropriations and estimated revenues are included in the Department's FY 2022-23 Fleet Org 8910 Adopted Budget and will be included in future budget requests.
