Title:

title

Approval of and authorization for the sole source purchase of an upgraded version of Tactics Central Management Software and approve and authorize execution of a Yearly Maintenance Agreement from Gades Sales Company, Inc. for the Traffic Signals Maintenance Division of the Street and Stormwater Division  

End

 

Background:

In order for the City of Broken Arrow’s Traffic Signals Maintenance Division to make necessary changes to the traffic signals timing devices, this software upgrade must be installed by year end.  Otherwise, the City of Broken Arrow’s traffic signal’s current computer system will no longer be compatible with the current traffic signals operating system.  Gades Sales Company, Inc. is the only distributor authorized to sell, install and support the required product within the state.  Purchasing this software update is the most efficient method without replacing the entire system at a significantly greater cost.  Currently, the traffic signals timing software is Tactics version 2.0.4.  The proposed for approval software would be Tactics version 3.2.1.

 

Cost:                                                                $58,900.00

Funding Source:                     Capital Outlay Streetlight Fund
