Title
Network Switches for Police Training Facility
History
Network switches, including a 1-year term of Cisco SMARTnet Maintenance Support, are needed for the Police Training Facility to support the EOC, Dispatch systems and other computer systems to be located at the facility. The switches quoted are the same make and model switches that were quoted for the Police Dispatch system in the Fall of 2024. The fall switch quotes were compared to the current quote using the The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS) Purchasing Cooperative contract 230105 and the TIPS cooperative quote came out slightly cheaper than the fall quotes.
Financial Impact
The PD training facility switches are part of the Board approved 2025 budgeted IT Hardware-Small Value account 100400-463400 and this quote comes in below the budgeted amount.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the waiver of the competitive bid process in lieu of participation in the Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS) Purchasing Cooperative pursuant to Contract #230105 for Consulting and Other Related Services and authorize the approval and execution of a vendor contract with Mindsight for the purchase of two Cisco Catalyst C9300 switches, and 1-year of service for Cisco SMARTnet Maintenance Support, to support the Police Dispatch Training facility, based on Mindsight’s proposal dated February 6, 2025 for a not-to-exceed contract price of $27,188.19;
AND
Authorize the Village Manager to execute all related contract, subject to Village Attorney review;

Allow the Village Manager to approve change orders related to the contract.
