Summary
Danbury City’s Board of Awards approved 19 items Dec. 11, from flu vaccines and a wastewater pump to laptop purchases and a Tyler Technologies maintenance contract; the meeting included a rescission and reaward for document digitization after a vendor pricing error.
The Danbury City Board of Awards approved 19 procurement items and contract amendments during a Dec. 11 meeting that covered routine maintenance, equipment, IT support and a records digitization procurement that required rescission and reaward.
Purchases approved included a $49,000 not‑to‑exceed award to Sanofi Pasteur for influenza vaccines for the Health and Human Services Department and a $32,922 Veolia pump purchase for the wastewater treatment plant. The board approved routine facility work — interior library partitions ($15,270.42 to BMP Construction), a City Hall chiller repair ($29,725.54 to Trane Technologies), and rooftop HVAC unit work for the Denver Senior Center (a $20,760 amendment to McKinney Mechanical, ARPA funded).
Technology and services approvals included a $33,077 increase to a master service agreement with Computer Integrated Services for network support hours, a Dell laptop purchase ($18,352.08) for public meeting rooms (ARPA funded), and a six‑month maintenance/support award to Tyler Technologies for the Munis ERP system ($130,319.38).
The board also approved security upgrades under United Alarm ($30,262.98 across multiple buildings), furniture for the Fire Department ($18,775.01 to Working Fire Furniture), and a $15,540.48 amendment to the Garland DBS roof contract at Fire Headquarters. Voting was generally unanimous.
Notably, staff reported an error in pricing by an initially selected vendor for the document‑digitization project (Joseph Merritt). After Merritt corrected its pricing and the corrected total exceeded the city's budgeted not‑to‑exceed figure, staff moved to rescind the prior award and reaward the project to ANA/UBIO at a contract not to exceed $249,000, contingent on consultant approval; the board approved that action.
All routine procurements were approved or amended; items funded by ARPA were noted as contingent on the city's ARPA consultant approvals.
