Purchase for Fiber Optic Expansion to the City of Mesa Employee Wellness Center for the Human Resources Department (as requested by the Information Technology Department) (Citywide)
This purchase will provide fiber cable installation, adding the Mesa Employee Wellness Center building to the City’s high-speed data network. As a result, it will improve the reliability of the connection and speed, eliminate the existing monthly service cost for DSL, and reduce the need for additional network security hardware that is necessary for a VPN connection over cable or DSL.
The Information Technology and the Human Resources Departments, and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase using the State of Arizona cooperative contract with BPG Technologies, LLC, for $50,000, based on estimated requirements.
