Title
Annual Maintenance Fees and Licenses for Granicus Managed Services (B)
This item requests the City Commission to authorize the issuance of a purchase order not to exceed $66,861.80 for annual maintenance fees and licenses for Granicus Managed Services.
Explanation
Granicus was one of the earliest providers of video streaming services in the United States, and in particular Florida. The City contracted for some of the earliest services and eventually Granicus bought the Daystar Corporation which was sole source provider of the City's Legistar automated agenda system.
Granicus is a provider for video streaming, agenda management and other services. This year the agreement will add Automated Tracking and Approval for the City Manager's Office and enable the use of a Portable Encoder for the ability to stream meetings from remote locations.
This amendment to the Service Agreement will formalize the negotiated pricing as recommended by the Purchasing Department.
Fiscal Note
Funds in the amount of $66,861.80 are available from the Clerk of Commission Budget.
Recommendation
The City Commission authorize the Clerk of the Commission to execute a purchase order and execute a First Amendment to Granicus, Inc. Service Agreement, a sole source vendor, in the amount not to exceed $66,861.80 for payment of the annual maintenance fees and licenses subject to the approval by the City Attorney as to form and legality.
