SBC FILE NUMBER: 119.1



AGENDA SECTION:

CONSENT AGENDA

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

VMWARE provides processor support to the IT department's overall  technology system. We normally renew this support on an annual basis. The rate charged for a 1-year renewal period would be $18,384.00.  If we only renew for a 1-year period, the renewal rates for the second and third years would likely increase.  However, VMWARE has offered the County a discount of 12% if we choose the 3-year renewal option, in the amount of $48,533.76.  Selecting the 3-year renewal option would result in a savings to the County of more than $6,600.00 over the 3-year term.

BUDGETED:
