Intro

INTRODUCED BY Dan Tarwater III, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, COMBAT desires to renew the maintenance agreement for First Call COMBAT - Connections, a web-based software application for use by COMBAT-funded substance abuse treatment programs to track data and determine the effectiveness of COMBAT funding; and,
WHEREAS, COMBAT has been contracting with First Call Technologies, LLC, for this software since 2008; and,
WHEREAS, the Jackson County Drug Commission and COMBAT administration recommend the award of a software maintenance agreement to First Call for a six-month period, with three twelve-month options to extend, at a cost to the County not to exceed $39,000; and,
WHEREAS, section 1030.1, Jackson County Code, 1984, eliminates the requirement for competitive bidding when items to be purchased can be obtained from only one source and requires notification of and approval by the Legislature on such sole source purchases exceeding $25,000.00; and,
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends the award of this contract to First Call Technologies, LLC, as a sole source, because First Call, as the developer of this proprietary software, is the only vendor capable of maintaining it; and,
BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that award be made as recommended by the Director of Finance and Purchasing, and that the County Executive be, and hereby is, authorized to execute for the County any documents necessary to the accomplishment of the award; and,
