Summary

Trustees approved replacement of a 5.5-year-old storage area network (SAN) at village hall, selecting IBM hardware and MobileTech LLC professional services for installation and migration, total $26,485.24.

The board approved purchase of IBM hardware and associated professional services from MobileTech LLC to replace a 5.5-year-old SAN at village hall for a total of $26,485.24.

IT staff said the current SAN is nearing end-of-life and availability concerns from chip shortages prompted moving the originally planned 2027 purchase forward. "This time around... This IBM equipment will match what we're at, what we're getting at the PD," the IT representative stated, noting comparable capability and included professional services for installation and migration. Trustees approved the purchase by roll-call vote.

Staff said the procurement is a hardware refresh rather than adding features and that Level Tech LLC (as named in the quote) will provide installation services included in the price. The board directed IT to coordinate the migration and ensure continuity of village data services.
