RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
WAIVING THE BID PROCESS AND AWARDING A CONTRACT
TO PROGRESSIVE SOLUTIONS, INC. FOR ALARM PERMITTING
AND FALSE ALARM BILLING, AND SOFTWARE SERVICES
WHEREAS, the City's current software for alarm billing is limited in its support, is
unreliable, inefficient, and impedes the City's ability to collect alarm fees and false alarms; and
WHEREAS, Staff has evaluated the software provided by Progressive Solutions,
Inc., and concluded that this system would accurately track billing and false alarms, it is the
best system available, and it is the only system available to meet the City's unique
requirements; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 12.60.220(B) of the National City Municipal
Code, the Purchasing Agent may dispense with the requirements of the bidding process when
the commodity can be obtained by only one source. Sole source procurements may be used
when there is only one source from which a particular commodity is available and there is no
adequate substitute. Sole source procurement may also be used when it is clear that
competitive bidding will not produce any competitive advantage or would be impractical or not
meet an urgent city procurement need; and
WHEREAS, the City has determined that Progressive Solutions, Inc. is qualified
by experience and ability to perform the services desired by the City, and Progressive
Solutions, Inc. is willing to perform such services for a one-time software setup, installation
and conversion of $17,400; for a term of one year with an option to renew; and annual
approximate renewals of $2,200, which will be negotiated by the City's Purchasing Agent.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby finds that Progressive Solutions, Inc. is the only source from which the
desired services are available, and awards the contract for Alarm Permitting and False Alarm
Billing, and False Alarm Billing and Software Services to:
PROGRESSIVE SOLUTIONS, INC.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City.of National City that
the Mayor is hereby authorized to execute a contract between Progressive Solutions, Inc. and
the City of National City for Alarm Permitting and False Alarm Billing, and False Alarm Billing
and Software Services.
