Subject:
Discussion and possible action to authorize the purchase of (2) Cisco IP Phone 8851 – VOIP phone with Cisco Smart Net Total Care-extended service agreement; (1) LEXMARK MX331ADN B&W LASER MULTIFUNCTION PRINTER/REG; (1) LEXMARK MS331 DN B&W LASER PRINTER/REG; and (2) LEXMARK TONER CARTRIDGE YIELD 3,000/REG in the subtotal amount not to exceed $2,000 and to further authorize the funding source from the Technology fund under Article 102.0173 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. [Account #2009-2160-001-460105 (Minor tools & Apparatus)]
Issue: We currently have 18 Cisco IP Phones with over 10 years of use, which are starting to die out. We plan to replace them strategically to avoid depleting the technology fund allowance. Secondly, we need to replace the courtroom multifunction black and white copier/printer, which is experiencing issues. Lastly, our black and white printer backup in the traffic department has stopped working. The last listed printer is used when the main copier is out of commission.
Solution: With the approval of the Commissioner’s Court, we would be able to proceed with these purchases.
Result: Our priority is to provide high-quality customer service, and these technological tools enable us to deliver excellent service.
