Title
Purchase of Storage Network Interface Cards for the Information Technology Department (Citywide)
The existing storage network interface cards have reached the end of life cycle (seven years old) and will be replaced as part of this planned infrastructure lifecycle program. Without this replacement, the City can no longer receive firmware updates or support on a critical part of the storage infrastructure.
Information Technology and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase using the State of Arizona cooperative contract with EMC Corporation, at $54,293.00.
