Explanation

Need: The Division of Police needs to purchase and install a telephone system for the new lease building that will house division personnel from the Internal Affairs Bureau (IAB) and from the Accident Investigative Section (AIS).

Bid Information: Six bids were received at the bid opening on Bid # SA001883JY, that was held by the Purchasing Office on January 26, 2006 as follows:

Parallel Technologies Inc. $37,845.70
Nu Vision $40,023.00
Clarktel $45,501.00
Telecommunication Inc. $45,662.00
Vision Concept Tech $46,839.13
Horizon Chillicothe Telephone $53,303.06

Parallel Technologies Inc. was the lowest, most responsive, responsible and best bid received per specification, therefore a contract should be awarded to them. This company is not debarred according to the Federal excluded parties listing or prohibited from being awarded a contract according to the Auditor of State unresolved findings for recovery certified search.

Contract Compliance No: 31-1230642

Emergency Designation: Since the completion and occupancy of the new IAB/AIS building will be completed in the first quarter of 2006, emergency legislation is requested so the telephone system will be place before personnel move in.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds are available in the voted Safety Capital Improvement Fund for the relocation of IAB from Police Headquarters to a new facility.
