DATE: Tuesday, January 25, 2011 REFERENCE NO.: C-24704
LOG NAME: 04MICROSOFT SOFTWARE LICENSES
SUBJECT:
Adopt a Supplemental Appropriation Ordinance Increasing Appropriations in the Information Systems Fund
in the Amount of $442,389.00 and Decreasing the Unaudited, Unreserved, Undesignated Information
Technology Fund Balance by the Same Amount and Authorize Execution of a Contract for Microsoft
Software Licenses and Maintenance from Dell Marketing, Inc., Using a State of Texas Department of
Information Resources Contract DIR-SDD-1014 for a Cost of $722,389.15
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract for Microsoft licenses and maintenance from Dell
Marketing, Inc., using a State of Texas Department contract DIR-SDD-1014 at a cost of $722,389.15; and
2. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing appropriations in the Information
Systems Fund by $422,389.00 and decreasing, unreserved, undesignated fund balance by the same
amount.
DISCUSSION:
On November 6, 2007, (M&C C-22498) the City Council authorized the execution of a contract for
Microsoft software licenses and maintenance to allow employees to access computing resources. These
licenses are referred to as a Microsoft Client Access License or CAL. This M&C provides for the additional
necessary CALs so that the City maintains licensing compliance as well as one year of software
maintenance for all CALs.
The State of Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) is authorized to offer the cooperative
purchasing programs to state agencies, public institutions of higher learning, public school districts and
local governments. Pursuant to Government Code Section 791.025, a local government that purchases
goods and services under the Interlocal Cooperation Act satisfies otherwise applicable competitive bidding
requirements.
MWBE - A waiver of the goal for MWBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Information
Technology Solutions Department and approved by MWBE Office because the purchase of goods or
services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
RENEWAL OPTIONS -This agreement may be renewed for up to three additional one-year terms at the
City's option. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that the City Council has
appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term.
