A6'111101T.'iI*]ZI The Information Technology Solutions (ITS) Department will use the purchase agreement for the coordination, implementation and installation of technology services for audio visual needs to all City departments using Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) contract DIR-CPO-4754. Procurement for audio visual equipment will utilize a separate agreement. State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under a cooperative purchasing agreement satisfies State laws requiring that the local government seek competitive bids for purchase of the item. Cooperative contracts have been competitively bid to increase and simplify the purchasing power of local government entities across the State of Texas. In the event the DIR agreement is not renewed, staff would cease purchasing at the end of the last purchase agreement coinciding with a valid DIR agreement. If the City Council were to not appropriate funds for a future year, staff would stop making purchases when the last appropriation expires, regardless of whether the then -current purchase agreement has expired. The City will initially use the DIR contract to make purchases authorized by this Mayor &Council Communication (M&C). The Cooperative Contract is set to expire on March 5, 2026. If DIR-CPO-4754 is extended, this M&C authorizes the City to purchase managed services under the extended contract. If DIR-CPO-4754 is not extended but DIR executes a new cooperative contract with GTS Technology Solutions, Inc. and with substantially similar terms, this M&C authorizes the City to purchase the equipment and supplies under the new DIR contract. If this occurs, in no event will the City continue to purchase goods and services under the new agreement for more than two (2) years without seeking Council approval. DIR-CPO-4754 has an initial term through March 05, 2023. State law provide that a local government purchasing an item under a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement satisfies state laws requiring that the local government seek competitive bids for the purchase of the item. DIR-CPO-4754 has been competitively bid to increase and simplify the purchasing power of government entities. Funding is budgeted in the Other Contractual Services account of the ITS Other General Government Department's ITS Capital Fund. http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc review.asp?ID=30020&councildate=6/14/2022 1/26/2023 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 This agreement may be renewed for up to three one-year renewal terms at the City's option.
