Title
Resolution to Approve Addition of Licensing Products to Existing Three-Year Support Agreement with Microsoft Corporation via Dell Marketing ($30,927.10)
Memorandum
The attached resolution seeks authorization to approve additional licensing to our three-year Support Agreement with Microsoft Corporation, payable in a single installment of $30,927.10 for FY2017 to cover licensing of Microsoft Visio and Project through May 31, 2018.
Fiscal/Budget Impact: This expenditure was budgeted for in the FY2017 Information Technology Services Fund budget.
The City of Ann Arbor received a quotation for additional licensing of the Microsoft Support Agreement from Dell Marketing. When this agreement began in May 2016, it was competitively bid against three vendors and Dell was the lowest bidder.
This addition of licensing to the City's Microsoft Enterprise Agreement approved (Resolution #15-0813) will provide the latest access to Microsoft Visio and Project going forward in combination with other products covered under the Enterprise Agreement, namely Microsoft Windows Desktop Operating Systems, Office365, Windows Server Client Access Licenses, Exchange Mail Client Access Licenses, SQL Server and SharePoint Server Client Access Licenses.
This allows City IT personnel the ability to efficiently and effectively operate, maintain and sustain the City's network computing environment providing service delivery to the organization.
Authorization of the payment plan will allow for the issuance of a Purchase Order in the amount of $30,927.10 for FY2017.
