Three-Year Lease Renewal with Two, Three-Year Renewal Options for the City’s Data Center Space for the Department of Innovation and Technology (Sole Source) (Citywide)
In 2016, AT&T (now Evoque) was chosen as the sole source provider for Mesa's co-location services. This facility is the only commercially available facility of this type in Mesa and is situated along a fiber optic path already owned by City. The Evoque Data Center is the City’s primary data center and houses the City’s IT infrastructure for all on-premise business applications and databases. This data center features enterprise-grade cooling, power management, and connectivity to support the provision of City IT services.
The Department of Innovation and Technology and Purchasing recommends authorizing the use of the sole source vendor, Evoque Data Center Solutions at $409,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5% or the adjusted Consumer Price Index.
