Resolution # 24-25.15 Authorizating the Award for the Access Control System Project.pdf
 
Rationale:
The District conducted a formal competitive bid process. However, that process did not result in any responsive bidders. As a result, the District was able to directly negotiate an agreement with Safe and Sound Security, Inc., resulting in the need to adopt and approve this Resolution. The District, in consultation with its legal counsel, has negotiated an agreement with Safe and Sound Security, Inc. for security solutions and to perform the work related to the Access Control System Project at a cost not-to-exceed Six Million Fifteen Thousand Four Hundred Fifty-Five and 28/100 Dollars ($6,015,455.28) (“Agreement”). District staff now requests the Board of Education’s approval of the Resolution and Agreement and requests the Board’s authorization to take any action necessary to effectuate the intent of the Resolution and Agreement pursuant to the Access Control System Project.  
Budgetary Impact:
The cost, not to exceed $6,015,455, to be paid from Capital Facilities and Improvement fund.
