SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF MDT SYSTEM UPGRADE FROM VARIOUS BIDDERS FOR THE
INFORMATION SYSTEMS & SERVICES DEPARTMENT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize for the Information Systems
and Services Department the following:
1. The purchase of hardware from DMC Business Systems and Supplies for the
amount of $13,486.13, f.o.b. delivered - Fort Worth, and
2. The upgrade of software from the sole source Diversified Computer Products
for the amount of $39,350.00 f.o.b. delivered - Fort Worth.
DTSCl1SST0N-
The Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) system is used by the Police Department to check
various electronic data files for wanted persons and wanted vehicles. Each
marked police vehicle has an MDT.
The Department of Public Safety (DPS) in Austin is converting to a new computer
system and communications protocol. The City's MDT computer is very old
technology and does not have the ability to run new communications protocol
which DPS will convert to during September or October 1991. After the DPS
conversion the old MDT system will not be able to receive information from DPS.
The Information Systems and Services Department planned to replace the current
system with a new MDT system with greater capabilities. Bid specifications were
prepared for the new system. The bids were returned on June 27, 1991 with only
one responsive bidder. The bidder was ElectroCom Automation for $261,343.00,
(bid number 91-2472). This bid is unacceptable because the price greatly
exceeds budgeted funds and the new system would not be ready by the Sept/Oct
deadline.
As an alternative the Information Systems and Services Department proposes to
upgrade our current MDT system with new computer hardware and communications
software. Diversified Computer Products developed the current MDT system and
is the only vendor that can perform the upgrade. The cost of the upgrade is
$39,350.00 which includes a one-year warranty. The computer hardware can be
purchased from bid 91-2503 for a cost of $13,486.13. This hardware has a one-
year warranty. The current system has a software maintenance contract that
costs $14,424.00 per year and a hardware maintenance contract that costs $479.00
per year.
Upgraded System $39,350.00.
