PC Cycle Replacement Program for Purchase of Computers, Ruggedized Laptops and Tablets for Various City Departments as requested by the Information Technology Department (Citywide)

 

The contract award amount reflects the IT Department’s funded and forecasted Lifecycle amounts for Cycle Replacement for FY16 and FY17 plus estimated supplemental purchases that individual departments may need outside of the cycle program.  Approval of this request assures that IT can continue to provide appropriate technology to employees and helps to prepare the City for the deployment of Windows 10.  Nearly 2,400 devices are programmed to be replaced in the two fiscal years.  Obsolete devices, 5 years or older at replacement, will be replaced throughout the City including the Fire and Medical and the Police Departments.  Because of changing technologies and work processes, having the flexibility to provide different types of devices supplied by the different manufacturers is advantageous.
