Explanation
BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Finance Director to establish a purchase order, for the Department of Technology, on behalf of the Division of Police, for the purchase of replacement computer equipment. This purchase will be made from a pre-established universal term contract (UTC) with Resource One.

The computer equipment being replaced is outdated and/or obsolete and is used for the running of applications that are very important to the daily operation of various city divisions. As such, replacement of this equipment is crucial for continued efficiency of city operations. Additionally, this is the first time in several years that funding has been available for replacement computer equipment.

FISCAL IMPACT
On June 6, 2005 ordinance 0759-2005 passed, authorizing funds in the amount of $323,600.00 for replacement desktop computers, for various city agencies other than the Division of Police, with Resource One. Funds for this ordinance are available in the 2005 Department of Technology's Internal Service Fund's Budget to fund this purchase, which in the aggregate totals $50,220.00.

CONTRACT COMPLIANCE
311419297 -- Expiration 03/09/2007

EMERGENCY DESIGNATION
Emergency designation is being requested to immediately facilitate this purchase as the equipment being purchased is obsolete and crucial to city operations. Additionally, since division computer equipment has not been replaced for several years, the Department of Technology would like to continue the process of acquisition and installation on behalf of their customers.
