Explanation
This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to establish a blanket purchase order to obtain replacement Motorola radios and related accessories from an established Universal Term Contract FL004701 with Motorola Solutions Inc. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage, Sewer Maintenance Operations Center (SMOC) uses these radios and related accessories to communicate with work crews, supervisors, and management. In addition, these radios and related accessories will enable SMOC supervisors to continue to coordinate and dispatch fleet units to needed locations at a moment's notice for emergency repairs or maintenance.
This ordinance is being submitted as an emergency because, without emergency action, no less than 37 days will be added to this procurement cycle and the efficient delivery of the radios and related accessories will be slowed. Discount pricing is currently only available through mid-March 2014 and it is estimated that emergency legislation requested would allow for a purchase order by March 3, 2014.
