Title
Innoprise Servers - Purchase Approval
History
The MIS Division has included funds in the FY 2011 budget to purchase the necessary hardware and software components to begin the implementation and migration to the Innoprise ERP system. A new file server and an application server are needed as well as Microsoft software licenses for each server. The Innoprise system will also have a dedicated tape drive for daily backup purposes.
Contact pricing for IBM products is available through CDW of Vernon Hills, Illinois under IBM's GSA IT Contract# GS-35F-4984H. The cost for the two servers and tape drive is $18,887.54.
Contact pricing for Microsoft products is available through CDW of Vernon Hills, Illinois under Microsoft’s GSA IT Contract# GS-35F-0195J. The cost for the Microsoft Server 2008 and SQL Server licenses is $1,654.69.
On December 6, 2010, this item was reviewed by the Finance Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
Financial Impact
The amount budgeted for the server hardware is $19,000 in account number 010-1101-499.60-11; and $3,000 for server software in account number 010-1101-499.60-15.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve waiving of bids and purchase two IBM servers, tape drive and Microsoft server licenses at a cost not to exceed $20,542.23.
