RE: City Council Agenda Item May 5, 2020
Suggested Motion: To continue the Agreement for Information Technology Services
originally signed May 13th, 2019 for the second year, 2020-2021, at the current negotiated
price of $24,960 annually, payable monthly ($2,080).
Background: City held a Request for Proposal last year for outsourcing information
technology services. ICS Computers was selected for their expertise and the availability to
provide hands on local service. An agreement was implemented at the negotiated price of
$24,960 annually. Rich Chartier, president of ICS computers has performed well within the
contract guidelines. The technicians have responded promptly and efficiently to requests and
provided the service the city currently requires. It is the recommendation of the Finance
Director that we continue with the current contract.
