Purchase of Replacement/Upgrade Equipment for the TOPAZ Regional Wireless Cooperative (TRWC) for the Information Technology Department (Citywide)
The Florence Gardens radio site was added to the TRWC network to provide service for the Mesa Energy Resources Magma Gas Service Area. This radio site also provides vital communications for the Apache Junction and Mesa Police Departments when transporting prisoners to the correctional facilities located in Florence. The equipment located at the Florence Gardens radio site is obsolete and is no longer supported by the manufacturer.
The Information Technology Department and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase from the State of Arizona cooperative contract with Motorola Solutions, Inc., at $208,531, plus $61,469 contingency funding, for the total amount of $270,000. This purchase is funded by TOPAZ Joint Venture Fund.
