BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The WSWPCF telephone replacement is quoted at $41,017.03. Staff has obtained extensive pre -sales engineering and design, and an informal quote from AT&T (SBC) Bell under the State's CALNET contract. During the past seven years, the City Council has approved staff to make purchases for several communications projects from AT&T (SBC) under the terms of the State of California competitively -bid CALNET contract, most particularly, Council Resolution Nos. 99-53, 99-106 and 2001-220. The CALNET agreement has been written with a refresh clause that ensures that the State (and the City) will get the lowest prices for goods and services during the term of the contract. The CALNET contract will end in 2008. [CALNET Contract wonting] Section 17 ANNUAL SERVICE REVIEW For the purpose of maintaining competitiveness throughout the term of this Agreement, Contractor agrees to a joint review of its pricing and service functionality, and marketing efforts annually to ensure State and its customers will receive cost and technologically competitive services throughout the terms of the Agreement. Contractor agrees that no other customer of Pacific Bell and MCI, collectively or as individual companies, will receive better rates for a substantially similar suite of services offered under substantially similar terms and conditions when the volume of business from the other customer is equal to or less than the volume of business the State delivers under this Agreement. Revised: Amendment No. 1 - 12/4/98 Lodi Municipal Code allows the use of other competitively -bid service contracts. LMC §3.20.045 STATE AND LOCAL AGENCY CONTRACTS The bidding process described in this code may be waived when advantageous for the city, and authorized by the city manager for purchase of supplies, equipment or contractual services awarded in accordance MM formally adopted bidding or negotiation procedures approved by the governing boards of other California public agencies.

It will also replace the existing 56Kb/s data circuit. The shared T1 circuit will reduce the ongoing monthly circuit costs for both telephone and wide area network (WAN) data communications. This will also increase the WAN data connection speed between sites from 56Kb/s to over 800Kb/s (one half or more of the total T1 circuit bandwidth.) The existing telephone system is old and subject to failures, and replacement parts have become difficult to obtain. Upgrading the WSWPCF telephone system will allow staff to be on the same system as the Civic Center, with the same functionality and features. ITEMS: WSWPCF Meridian Opt. 11c PBX $28,896.19 Required upgrades to core Meridian 11 c PBX and core network equipment to facilitate T1 link $8,662.99 Initial installation of T1 circuit $1,700.00 Tax on hardware $1,757.85 Contingencies $2,982.97 Total: $44,000.00 FISCAL IMPACT: There will be a slight reduction in ongoing circuit costs and equipment maintenance costs.
