Commission approves $11,211.55 UPS battery replacement for dispatch center
Summary
After a February UPS failure at the dispatch center, staff requested replacement batteries at a cost of $11,211.55; the commission approved the KCOM quote not to exceed that amount.
A staff member told commissioners that the dispatch center’s uninterruptible power supply failed in February and the batteries — about five years old — need replacement. "So that cost is $11,211.55 for the batteries," he said, adding the price includes shipping, handling and labor to move equipment to dispatch.
A commissioner raised questions about breakdowns in the vendor quote and whether other bids had been solicited; staff said the quote came through the county's radio vendor (KCOM). A motion to approve the quote not to exceed $11,211.55 carried by voice vote; staff will finalize procurement and get any warranty details from the vendor.
