Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order to Mythics, Inc. to furnish and deliver Oracle Support Renewal for a one-year period under Illinois State Contract CMS7966630 Oracle Statewide Master Contract. The District has the ability to participate in State of Illinois contracts under the Government Joint Purchasing Act, 30 ILCS 525/0.01 et.seq. The purchase order will expire on May 21, 2019. The term of the renewal is from May 22, 2018 through May 21, 2019.
The State of Illinois currently has a competitively bid contract, CMS7966630 Oracle Statewide Master Contract, with Mythics, Inc. for the purchase of Oracle, Inc. software and software maintenance and support. The contract enables authorized governmental units to purchase Oracle software and software maintenance through June 30, 2018.
Mythics, Inc., the sole source of supply under State of Illinois Contract CMS7966630, has submitted prices for the products required. Inasmuch as Mythics, Inc., is the only source of supply for the Oracle Support Renewal, said purchase order may be issued without competitive bidding pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act.
Mythics, Inc. 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 Mythics, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $240,761.19.
Funds for the 2018 expenditure, in the amount of $120,380.60, are available in Account 101-27000-612820. The estimated expenditure for 2019 is $120,380.59. Funds for the 2019 expenditure are contingent on the Board of Commissioners’ approval of the District’s budget for that year.
Requested, John Sudduth, Director of Information Technology, JS:RA:RS:rs
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for May 17, 2018
