STAFF ANALYSIS
Motorola Solutions is the sole source vendor for the State of Arizona. This purchase is using the state cooperative rate Goodyear contract #20-5313/Arizona State contract #CTR046830 for communications equipment.
The purchase of the radios is required for the telecommunications consoles to support the Motorola standard equipment upgrade, scheduled for mid-year 2023. The purchase also supports the build out of consoles for the three new positions approved in FY23.
