Committee recommends five-year renewal for district video system license
Summary
Facilities staff recommended renewing a five-year license and maintenance agreement for the district’s video system, representing a multi-year savings versus the prior contract.
Facilities staff told the committee they recommended renewing a five-year license and maintenance agreement for the district’s video system with Carolina Fire Technologies (referred to in the memo as the vendor). The five-year total quoted in the memo was $361,980.
Mister McManus explained the renewal covers software updates, maintenance and license fees for the district’s on-site video servers and the camera system. He said the contract would support roughly 2,011 cameras in the district’s system and that the five-year quote represents “a significant savings” compared with the prior license, which staff described as roughly $92,000 per year on a three-year term.
Committee members asked clarifying questions about what the license covers; staff replied the agreement is for the camera system, on-site servers and maintenance. The committee voted to send the renewal recommendation to the full board by unanimous committee vote.
No changes to surveillance policy or camera counts were proposed during the committee discussion; the item forwarded to the board was a contract renewal recommendation for vendor licensing and support.
