Council approves one-year IT contract with PEAKE Technology Partners
Summary
After reviewing a bid from PEAKE Technology Partners that included a discounted onboarding fee and a 36-month option, the council directed staff to move forward with a one-year contract with annual review; the motion passed unanimously.
Landover Hills — The council reviewed an IT services proposal from PEAKE Technology Partners at the Nov. 18 meeting and authorized staff to proceed on a one-year contract basis with an option to review annually.
PEAKE presented a bid that included a 50% discount on the onboarding fee and a standard 36-month contract; council members expressed preference for a shorter, reviewable arrangement. Councilman Mike Walker moved to approve moving forward under the one-year approach with annual review; Councilman Todd Over seconded the motion and the council voted unanimously in favor.
The Town Manager will prepare the contract to reflect the one-year term with annual review and submit it to the Town Attorney for legal review. The council will consider the final contract at the next meeting.
Why it matters: The contract governs town information-technology support and continuity; a one-year term allows the town to reassess service levels and pricing annually.
Next steps: Town Manager to draft contract with the specified one-year term and scope and forward it to the Town Attorney for review prior to final council consideration.
