One-Year Renewal to the Term Contract for Network Equipment for the Mesa Public Libraries as requested by the Library Services Department (Citywide)
Some of the existing wired network connectivity equipment in the libraries is at end of life and maintenance support. The Universal Service Schools and Libraries Program (E-Rate Program) helps fund high-speed Internet access and telecommunications. In 2017, Council approved the purchase of network equipment for the Mesa Public Libraries at $256,464.42 through the program. This is an ongoing project for Library Services and Information Technology and more time is required to complete it.
The Library Services Department and Purchasing recommend authorizing the renewal with Sentinel Technologies, Inc., through the E-Rate Program. No additional funds are requested at this time.
