• <br />11.C.5. COUNTY JAIL - WAIVE FORMAL BID PROCEDURES <br />TO PURCHASE AND INSTALL INTERCOM/CAMERA <br />EQUIPMENT - SIEMENS BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES, <br />INC. <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of June 21, 2002: <br />Date: June 21, 2002 <br />To: The Honorable Board of County Commissioners <br />Thru: James E. Chandler, County Administrator <br />From. Thomas W. Frame, General Services Director CD, <br />Subject: Request to Waive Formal Bid Procedures to Purchase and Install <br />Intercom/Camera Equipment at Jail <br />BACKGROUND:.. <br />During the current fiscal year, the County undertook the replacement of the detention electronics <br />at the Indian River County Jail manufactured by Montgomery Technologies installed by Siemens <br />Building Technologies, Inc. As part of the on-going improvements at the jail, it has been <br />requested that the intercom system in the jail along with security camera replacements be <br />corrected so that it may be operational. As a result of that request, staff has contacted Siemens <br />for a quote on those improvements. A memo attached from Mr. Lynn Williams, Superintendent <br />of Building and Grounds outlines the work to be performed and the estimated costs. <br />Inasmuch as Siemens installed the other detention electronic work, it clearly is desirable to have <br />the work performed by the same installer who is the preferred installer for Montgomery <br />Technologies. Appropriate funding is available to accomplish this needed work. The intent, if <br />approved by the Board would be to utilize the same form of agreement that was previously used <br />with Siemens with the scope modified for the new work proposed as attached and for an amount <br />not to exceed $134,145. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Authorize staff to proceed with Siemens Building Technologies, Inc., waiving the standard hitt <br />procedure and authorize the Chairman to execute an agreement as previously approved with <br />Siemens with the Scope changed to reflect the attached work to be performed subject to prior <br />approval by the County Attorney's office with an amount not to exceed $134,145. <br />• <br />JULY 2, 2002 <br />Uit i <br />t <br />Ce <br />-77- <br />
