Title
Joint resolution authorizing contracts with CDW-G of Vernon Hills, Illinois, to expand the County's backup system for $144,309.
Staff Summary
* The Lake County Board originally approved the County's current backup system in 2020. The backup system expansion will resolve current space limitations, provide space to accommodate migrations for Health, 19th Judicial, and Division of Transportation, as well as provide for anticipated growth over the next three years.
* This resolution approves contracts with CDW-G for $144,309, covering $54,410 of hardware, $5,316 of professional services for implementation and configuration, and one-year of licensing and support with options to renew for three, one-year periods.
* The current licensing and support renewal costs are $58,868. This expansion would increase licensing and support costs for fiscal year (FY) 2025 by $84,583 for a total of $143,451. Subsequent annual renewals are estimated to increase five percent with each one-year renewal for a total cost not to exceed an estimated amount of $166,063 in the final term.
* This project is included in the 2025 Capital Improvement Program as part of the Technology Improvement Plan.
* In accordance with Section 33.115 of the Lake County Purchasing Ordinance, a cooperative purchasing contract with CDW-G has been identified through Omnia Partners (23-6692-02) to procure needed goods, services, construction, or professional services that have been competitively solicited and awarded.
