Title
Symantec Anti-Virus Software Annual Maintenance - Expenditure Approval
History
The MIS Division has included $6,191 in the FY 2014 budget for Symantec antivirus software maintenance and support. The Village uses Symantec's Endpoint Protection software package, which is a centrally managed antivirus protection system for email, servers and workstations. Maintenance includes software support, upgrades and updates.
The maintenance cost per license is $17.67 and the Village owns 275 licenses. Sixty new licenses were purchased in 2009 for all the police squad cars and funded by Orland Joint Emergency Telephone System Board. OJETSB will be funding the maintenance of these 60 software licenses.
Contract pricing for Symantec products is available through CDWG of Vernon Hills, Illinois with SYNNEX GSA SCHEDULE (SLED) under Contract Number GS-35F-0143R.
On December 2, 2013, this item was reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
Financial Impact
The Village portion of the cost for 275 licenses is $4,859.25; and $6,191 is budgeted in the FY 2014 computer maintenance account. The OJETSB portion of the cost for 60 licenses is $1060.20.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the Symantec Antivirus software maintenance expenditure in an amount not to exceed $5920.
