Recommendation for Resolution
Waiving Formal Bids
F cERE�;cEa Dual Access Conversion Kit
ENCLCSURES Resolution
It is recommended that a resolution be passed
waiving the requirement for formal sealed bids
and authorizing the purchase of one Dual Access
Kit frog; Digital Equipment Corporation at a total
cost of $6,417.75.
The Department of Police has requested the purchase of one Dual Access
Kit at a total cost of $6,417.75.
The kit is a component part for the DEC PDP/1170 computer disk drive,
which is in operation for the Department.
The City has a maintenance contract with Digital Equipment Corporation
for the DEC Computer and Disk Drives, DEC will not provide mainte-
nance service on other manufacturers products. This would require a
seporate maintenance agreennent with another vendor and could result
in a problem of isolating failures.
Funds for this purchase are available in the Prior Year Reserve Fund.
The Departments of Police and Computers concur with this recommenda-
tion.
