Once again we have reviewed prices and found the State of Florida contract to offer the best deal. This year we have replaced 70 computers and purchased 32 new ones - each requiring new software licenses totaling $62,382.18. Software licenses for most computers includes Office, OneNote, server access, Communicator, and antivirus. We also wish to purchase $600 worth of software licenses for new products to improve efficiencies at remote sites. All newly purchased Microsoft software is added to our existing maintenance contract that entitles the City to free upgrades, home use, and the right to install the software when needed and pay for any new licenses at one time at the end of the year. Issue: Should the City piggyback off state contract 255-001-01-1 for the purchase of computer software from SHI for a total not to exceed $63,000? Recommendations Staff respectfully recommends the Mayor and Commissioners approve piggy-backing off state contract 255- 001-01-1 for the purchase of computer software not to exceed $63,000. Attachments: Financial Impact: There is no additional financial impact as all computer software purchased is already funded in the appropriate departmental accounts.
