HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 01062015 - C.97RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent or designee to execute, on behalf of the Chief Information
Officer, a purchase order amendment with IBM Corporation to increase the payment limit by $150,000 to a new
payment limit of $390,000 for maintenance and support of County mainframe computer software for the period
January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015, under the IBM Agreement for Software Maintenance.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$390,000 (100% User Fees); the cost is budgeted under Org# 1060, Fiscal Year 2014/15, and charged out to user
departments via DoIT's monthly billing process.
BACKGROUND:
The County, on behalf of the Department of Information Technology, licenses mainframe computer software from
IBM, and receives support and maintenance for the software under the IBM International Agreement for Acquisition
of Software Maintenance, which provides for annual renewal of support. IBM invoices DoIT on a monthly basis
depending on the level of support used by DoIT. The Chief Information Officer needs authority to make payment for
mainframe software support under the IBM International Agreement for Acquisition of Software Maintenance.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board elect not to approve the request, the County mainframe would not receive necessary maintenance to
remain operational.
