Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to AT&T Mobility National Accounts LLC, to Furnish and Deliver Cellular Telephones, Accessories and Wireless Communications Services for 24 months. The term of this service is July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2019.
AT&T Mobility National Accounts LLC has submitted prices for Cellular Telephones, Accessories and Wireless Communications Services under the NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative Purchasing Organization (National Association of State Procurement Officials - formerly WSCA-NASPO). The NASPO agreement was competitively bid out and any government entities within Illinois are able to take advantage of the pricing listed there within. NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative Purchasing Organization provides the highest standard of excellence in public cooperative contracting. By leveraging the leadership and expertise of all states with the purchasing power of their public entities, NASPO ValuePoint delivers best value, reliable, competitively sourced contracts.
AT&T Mobility National Accounts LLC is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement is not applicable to this contract because it is primarily a furnish and deliver contract.
In view of the foregoing, it is requested that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue said purchase order to AT&T Mobility National Accounts LLC in an amount not to exceed $684,400.00.
Funds are available in Accounts 101-27000-612210 and 623850.
