Board approves $158,750 desktop purchase for classified staff
Summary
The Papillion La Vista board approved a contract with Sterling Computers for $158,750 to refresh desktops for classified staff districtwide after competitive quotes; the motion passed by roll call.
The Papillion La Vista Community Schools Board of Education approved a contract with Sterling Computers to replace desktops used by classified staff across the district.
Matt, the district technology staff member who presented the item, said the district is in the sixth year of its desktop refresh cycle and solicited competitive quotes. "Sterling ended up coming up with the best price for what we were looking for," he said, recommending board approval of a purchase agreement for a total of $158,750.
A motion to enter into the agreement was moved and seconded by board members (motion recorded as by Mister Lotus, second by Mister Madler). The board conducted a roll‑call vote after brief discussion; affirmative votes were recorded and the motion carried.
Board members noted the purchase aligned with prior discussions about competitive bidding and market prices that have moderated since tariff impacts. The contract will fund replacement desktops for classified staff across the district; staff did not identify additional contingencies or amendments during the meeting.
Next steps are procurement and implementation according to district purchasing procedures.
