RESOLUTION NO. 2014 — 84
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
WAIVING THE BID PROCESS PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.60.260 OF
THE NATIONAL CITY MUNICIPAL CODE BY UTILIZING WESTERN STATES
CONTRACTING ALLIANCE (WSCA) CONTRACT B27160, AND AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF 110 DESKTOP COMPUTERS AND MICROSOFT
OFFICE SOFTWARE FOR THE NATIONAL CITY PUBLIC LIBRARY
FROM DELL, INC., FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $107,730.83
WHEREAS, there are 110 public desktop computers at the National City Library
that are approximately seven years old; and
WHEREAS, these systems are utilizing hardware operating systems (Windows
XP) and productivity software (Microsoft Office 2003) that are at End of Support (EOS). As a
result, software updates and spare parts will become increasingly difficult to obtain when
hardware or software failures occur; and
WHEREAS, the Management Information Services ("MIS") Department desires to
purchase desktop computers and Microsoft Office Software from Dell, Inc., for an amount not to
exceed $107,730.83 by waiving the bid process and utilizing Western States Contracting
Alliance ("WSCA") Contract B27160; and
WHEREAS, the City of National City will get the best price for the computers and
software by "piggybacking" the State's WSCA Contract B27160; and
WHEREAS, Section 2.60.260 of the National City Municipal Code provides that
the City may buy directly from a vendor at a price established through competitive bidding by
another public agency whose procedures have been determined to be in substantial compliance
with the City's procurement procedures, and such a determination has been made in this case.
It is therefore recommended that the purchase be made without complying with the competitive
bidding procedure set forth in the Municipal Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby affirms the determination that the State of California's procurement
procedures are in substantial compliance with the City's, and pursuant to Section 2.60.260 of
the Municipal Code, authorizes the waiver of the bidding process for the purchase of 110
desktop computers and Microsoft Office Software for the National City Public Library from Dell,
Inc., for an amount not to exceed $107,730.83 by utilizing Western States Contracting Alliance
Contract B27160.
