HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 06242014 - C.77RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Department of Information
Technology, a purchase order with Microsoft Corporation in an amount not to exceed $150,000 for Microsoft
Premier Support renewal for the period June 13, 2014 through June 12, 2015.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$150,000 (100% User Fees); the entire cost is budgeted in DoIT's Fiscal Year 14/15 budget and charged out to user
departments via DoIT's billing process.
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Information Technology initiates the renewal of the Microsoft Premier Support each year.
Premier Support is essential for the ongoing operation of the majority of the County's desktop computers and servers.
In accordance with Administrative Bulletin No 611.0, County Departments are required to obtain Board approval for
single item purchases over $100,000. The County Administrator’s Office has reviewed this request and recommends
approval.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
This support is a critical component to maintaining the County's workstations and servers. Without it, DoIT may be
unable to resolve issues that arise during the course of normal County business.
