Title
A Resolution Of The City Commission Of The City Of Hollywood, Florida, Approving And Authorizing The Appropriate City Officials To Amend R-2015-030 And The Attached Blanket Purchase Order By Decreasing The Authorized Spending Limit Between Bellsouth Telecommunications, Inc. D/B/A AT&T And The City For Wired Communications Services To An Estimated Amount Of $743,500.00 For A Three Year Term.
Body
Staff Recommends: Approval of the Attached Resolution.
Explanation:
The Department of Information Technology desires to decrease the spend amount as part of the wired communications circuits.
On February 4, 2015, the City Commission passed and adopted Resolution Number R-2015-030, which approved and authorized the Information Technology Department to obtain wired communication circuits.
Resolution R-2015-030 authorized the City to spend an estimated amount of $830,000.00 over a three year term for wired communications circuits, thus, the Information Technology Department is requesting to transfer $86,500.00 from Resolution Number R-2015-030 to Resolution Number R-2015-031.
The deprecation of legacy communication services that are no longer supported has required the City to transition from Frame Relay to Pro CABS circuits.
Funds made available through R-2015-030 for legacy communication services, which are no longer supported, are requested to be allotted for communication services acquired through Resolution Number R-2015-031.
AT&T currently supplies all of the City's local and long distance services as well as connectivity between the public safety laptops and the City's internal network as well as the secure point to point connections.
