Member Franz said he felt they needed to summarize the pros and cons of this vendor. Ms. Zerwin replied that she and the County Procurement Manager have many references for this vendor from places like Washington, DC and Boston. The references stated that they are on budget, on time and on task and provide adequate training.

Member Franz asked which references use Hexagon. Ms. Zerwin replied she thought the City of Boston, but she would have to double check.

Member Franz stated that it is all funded by ETSB and not the fire districts. Ms. Zerwin remarked that ETSB will allow the fire agencies a change order for any optional equipment. If the fire agencies want to add options beyond the core system, the fire district would pick-up the cost.

Member Tegtmeyer said that he thought it was a great system. He questioned if there was any harm in waiting, so he can meet with DU-COMM.

Ms. Zerwin replied that the vote is at the pleasure of the Board and a large project is typically posted for two meetings before it is voted on. She added waiting to call the vote wouldn’t delay the project if tabled today.

Chairman Grasso remarked that there was no harm in waiting.

Member Block stated that he would like to see it posted on the April 24th meeting.

Member Tegtmeyer questioned if the system would be operational before the new CAD is launched. Ms. Zerwin replied that she did not know, as she didn’t ask. The plan was to deploy the new CAD. Hexagon CAD is live for testing, so PURVIS can start testing with new CAD and be ready for the cut over.

Member Franz moved, seconded by Member Tegtmeyer, that Resolution #ETS-R- 0020-18 be tabled.

Ms. Zerwin remarked that the fire chiefs want to get a price list of options and prevailing wage labor estimates.

Member Franz requested the Capital Budget impact. Ms. Zerwin said that they used a higher cost in the five year budget, but that she can provide the Board with updated numbers. She added that this contract was approximately $1 million less than other bidders.

Member Franz moved, seconded by Member Tegtmeyer, that Resolution #ETS-R- 0020-18, Awarding Resolution Approving Award of Purchase per Lowest Responsible Bid for RFP 16-167-RC to PURVIS Systems Incorporation for an IP- Based Fire Station Alerting System to Standardize the Delivery of Fire and EMS Dispatch, be tabled.
