Recommendation
Recommendation
Approve the Resolution.
Fiscal Impact
The total project cost is $11,396.00 and is covered under the 2019 budgeted IT Telephone Maintenance fund (account number 1001.41040.101.550672, which has a current balance of $15,657.04).
Background
On 10/06/2014, the Board approved an agreement with Telcom Innovations Group (TIG) for implementation of our Mitel phone system (RES-2014-R-199_I.2_100614) and the project was completed in February of 2015.
The approved 2015 agreement included a 5-year annual telephone maintenance and software assurance support schedule beginning in the 2015 fiscal year. The annual cost for this support was under $22,000 annually.
In January 2019, the village renewed year-five of the annual telephone maintenance and software assurance support agreement at a cost of $21,342.96. In addition, the upgrade (this agenda item) will cost $11,396.00. Therefore, this agreement is submitted for Village Board approval since the combined total exceeds the Village Manager's spending authority of $25,000.
Alternatives
The Board could elect to not approve the system upgrade and risk the functionality of the internal village phone system.
