Explanation

BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to establish blanket purchase orders, for the Department of Technology, on behalf of various city agencies, for the purchase of replacement desktop computers, computer related products and equipment. These purchases will be made from pre-established universal term contracts (UTC's), FL001696, with Resource One, expiration date March 31, 2007 and FL001717, with Smart Solutions, expiration date March 31, 2007.

The desktop computers, computer related products and equipment being replaced are outdated and/or obsolete and are used for the running of applications that are very important to the daily operation of various city agencies. Additionally, the desktop computers, computer related products and equipment being replaced do not meet the current minimal City of Columbus specifications/standards. As such, replacement of this equipment is crucial for continued efficiency of city operations. Funds for this purchase are budgeted and available in the 2006 Department of Technology's Internal Service Fund's Budget.

FISCAL IMPACT
For the divisions referenced within this ordinance a total of $7,053.35 in 2004 and $144,656.35 in 2005 was expended with Resource One and Smart Solutions for desktop computers, computer related products and equipment for various city agencies. This year the Department of Technology will expend $24,592.30 with Smart Solutions and $117,227.20 with Resource One. Funds are budgeted and available in the 2006 Department of Technology's Internal Service Fund's Budget to fund this purchase, which in the aggregate totals $141,819.50.
