This annual contract is to procure maintenance services for the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System (SCADA) from Layer 3 Communications (LOCAL) in an amount not to exceed $119,989. The annual maintenance agreement will be used by the Water Supply and Treatment Department to provide software updates, technical support, and other repair services associated with the SCADA network. SCADA is a system of software and hardware elements that maintains efficiency in the City's Water Supply and Treatment Department by controlling processes locally or at remote locations (monitoring, gathering, and process real-time data), directly interacting with devices such as sensors, valves, pumps, and motors, and record events into a log file.

This is a sole source procurement because this provides additional support and maintenance to the existing equipment that is only available from this supplier.
