Agenda Item 4.3
DATE:October 5,2021
TO:Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM:Linda Smith, City Manager
SUBJECT:Approving the Purchase of Computers and Related Equipment from Dell Marketing, L.P. Prepared by:Steve Windsor, Chief Information Security Officer
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:The City Council will consider the use of Dell Marketing, L.P. as the City’s primary vendor for computers and related equipment for the City’s daily business operations.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Adopt the Resolution Authorizing Staff to Procure Computers and Related Equipment from Dell Marketing, L.P.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:The funding to purchase computer-related supplies is included in the General Fund Budget and Internal Service Fund Budget approved by the City Council as part of the annual budget process.
DESCRIPTION:Over the last several years, the City has engaged Dell Marketing, L.P. (Dell) for computer-related purchases for daily business operations. The City routinely replaces computers and related equipment when these items reach the end of service life, currently defined as four years or longer for desktops and mobile devices. The City has typically utilized Dell computer equipment for its desktop and server operating systems and displays. These products, as well as Dell’s customer service and build quality, have been well received by Staff. Purchases thus far in Fiscal Year 2021-22 have been under the $45,000 threshold outlined in the Municipal Code and have therefore not required City Council approval. In preparation for the next round of equipment updates, Staff is requesting the City Council’s approval to use Dell as a primary vendor of software and hardware products.Section 2.36.100.A.9 of the City's Purchasing Policy provides an exemption to a competitive

bidding process when another public agency has administered a competitive bidding process andhas a current valid agreement for the same or substantially similar consultant or professionalservices, general services, supplies or equipment.Dell offers its products to local government agencies based on an agreement with the NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative Purchasing Program. The NASPO ValuePoint agreement was competitively bid and is a Master Contract that can be utilized by local government agencies. This procurement tool has been used effectively by the City for several years. Staff recommends that the City Council approve purchases in excess of $45,000 for the duration of the NASPO ValuePoint contract till July 31, 2022, through Dell Marketing, L.P. The ValuePoint Master Agreement and amendments are included as Attachment 2.
