Intro
RESOLUTION # 14384, November 25, 2002
INTRODUCED BY Ronald E. Finley, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, Section 1040.1 of the Jackson County Code, 1984, eliminates the requirement for competitive bidding when items to be purchased can be obtained from only one source; and,
WHEREAS, Section 1063.00 of the Code requires notification of and approval by the Legislature on such sole source purchases exceeding $5,000.00; and,
WHEREAS, the Purchasing Director recommends a contract with ASIX Corp. of Bellevue, WA, for maintenance of Ascend software for use by the Management Information Systems Department; and,
WHEREAS, the Purchasing Director further recommends that he not take competitive bids with regard to said contract for the reason that ASIX Corp. of Bellevue, WA, is the only known supplier of maintenance for its own proprietary Ascend software; therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that award be made as recommended by the Purchasing Director, and that the Purchasing Director be, and is hereby, authorized to execute for the County a contract with ASIX Corp. of Bellevue, WA, as recommended by the Purchasing Director; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Director of the Department of Finance is authorized to make all payments, including final payment on the contract.
