ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
BIDE - COMPUTER BY8TEN3 Mr. Bobby Abernathy, Data Processing
Director, discussed the bids received for the new Hewlett Packard
968 computer for the Data Processing Department. Bids requests
were sent to Hewlett Packard and Cott Systems, the only two vendors
who sell Hewlett Packard systems. Only one bid was received which
is as follows:
Cott Systems $157,610
This bid includes the equipment and $7,676 for maintenance. Only
$152,000 was budgeted for this bid. Cott will pay the county
$3,120 for the existing mainframe, which will reduce the amount
over budget to $2,490. Staff was asking that the $2,490 be
transferred from Training and Development to Capital outlay. A
part of the training funds will not be used because Cott's proposal
includes some staff training.
Commissioner Madison inquired about the receipt of only one
bid and if another type of equipment could be used. Mr. Abernathy
replied that the software would not be interchangeable with another
brand of mainframe.
MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to approve the request for
the transfer of the additional $2,490 over and above the budgeted
amount and approve the purchase of the equipment for $165,286.
