Commissioners approve contracts and requisitions; Technology Services requests rescission of InterDev GIS contract
Summary
Rockdale County commissioners approved a set of contracts and requisitions, agreed to rescind a small GIS professional-services contract with InterDev LLC due to vendor staffing shortfalls, and approved a three-year VMware software purchase and other procurement items; the board approved the motions by voice vote.
At its Dec. 2 meeting, the Rockdale County Board of Commissioners approved a package of contracts and requisitions and agreed to rescind one contract after a Technology Services explanation.
Clerk read new-business items 5 77–5 83 collectively. Item 5 79 proposed rescinding contract 2025-138 with InterDev LLC (a $5,100 GIS professional-services contract approved previously on Oct. 21, 2025). A Technology Services representative explained the vendor had internal staffing shortages and "lost a lot of their GIS specialists," making the firm unable to fulfill the contract. The representative said the county is seeking other vendors to meet its GIS staffing needs and requested rescission of the InterDev contract.
The board approved the motion to adopt the contracts, requisitions and to rescind item 5 79 by voice vote. The record shows the motion carried; a roll-call tally was not included in the transcript.
Other items approved or read into the record included:
- Item 5 80: a requisition to TSA Incorporated for VMware software that runs the county's virtual server environment at $149,640 per year for three years plus $4,420.80 (NCPA fee), for a total reported in the record of $453,340.80; this is a budgeted general fund item.
- Item 5 81: a requisition to United Consulting for material testing related to 8.6 miles of roadway resurfacing, milling, patching, asphalt paving and striping at $28,300 (capital grant fund, budgeted).
- Item 5 82: surplus equipment listings for Parks & Recreation senior services division and the Sheriff's Office and a sheriff's office donation request of a Glock model 45 to Investigator Grody Levitt upon retirement (more details available on ww.govdeals.com per the clerk's announcement).
- Item 5 83: a resolution related to locality pay under the Superior Court Judicial Compensation Reform Act; the clerk read the item but did not provide additional detail in the record.
Next steps: Technology Services will proceed to identify alternative vendors to fill GIS staffing needs; county procurement and finance will carry out approved requisitions and contract actions. The transcript does not record individual commissioner vote tallies for these items.
