Background:
This purchase is for the replacement of storage disk shelves, annual maintenance and technical support for the Storage Area Network (SAN) equipment located at the Wilson Building computer room. This equipment will reach end-of support and we intend replacement during the fiscal year 22. The upgrade will improve storage capacity in the SAN and will enable access to technical support, software upgrades, immediate hardware replacement in case of disruptive failure.
This is the Netapp Annual Maintenance and Technical Support for the Storage Area Network (SAN) equipment. It is a recurrent expense and it has been approved by the Board every year since approximately 2010.
This purchase is exempt from the County's competitive bidding requirements pursuant to Section 22.3-302(13) of the Alachua County Procurement Code, which permits the County to purchase Supplies or Services under Contract with cooperatives, including cooperatives that the County participates in accordance with Article 10, Section 22.10-201 (Cooperative Purchasing Authorized), providing the vendor extends the same terms and conditions of the Contract to the County; however, since the dollar amount of the purchase exceeds the purchasing authority of the Procurement Manager, this Purchase Order is being submitted for Board consideration and approval.
