Motion to approve Resolution No. 68-18 and ratify an emergency purchase to Interdev, LLC for information technology security services in an amount not-to-exceed $128,000 for ten months.
Body
Background:
On August 16, 2018, the City of Delray Beach (City) Manager approved an emergency purchase for information technology (IT) security services to fill the role of the City’s Information Security Analyst position while the assigned employee is on active duty in the United States Air Force. The position is primarily responsible mitigating technological security risks through the creation and maintenance of security systems. It is expected that this employee’s deployment will last through June 2019. To continue to protect the City from online threats without the Information Security Analyst role filled, the City Manager approved an emergency purchase to Interdev, LLC for a fulltime offsite staff member to perform the daily functions of the temporarily empty position. The cost of these services for ten months is $127,625. A contingency of $375 was requested to allow for minor proposal deviations, such as additional travel expenses. Now, staff requests ratification of the emergency purchase to Interdev, LLC in the amount of $128,000 for ten months of service.
In addition to the ratification of the emergency purchase, staff requests approval of Resolution No. 68-18 to authorize the City Manager to execute any agreements and any amendments and/or renewals thereto, and take any other actions necessary to effectuate the City’s agreement with Interdev.
