1.         Staff recommends motion to approve: 

 

A) the following three (3) year Agreements with AT&T Corporation:  “Master Agreement”;  “Volume & Term”;  “Metro Ethernet”;  “Centrex Plan 1”;  “Centrex Plan 2”;  “Centrex Plan 3”;  “Centrex Plan 5”;  “Frame Relay”;  “Megalink, FlexServe, CrisisLink, PinPoint”; “Primary Rate ISDN”;  “Dedicated Internet Access”;   “NETVpn”;  “Business Network Service”, and “Total Revenue Spend Bonus ”; and

 

B) a five (5) year Agreement with AT&T Corporation for “SMARTRing.  All of the AT&T Agreements set to take effect on July 1, 2009.

 

SUMMARY: These Agreements, collectively referred to as “The AT&T Agreements”, will provide the County with local voice, data, and other communications services for a period of 36 months with the provision for two (2) - one (1) year extensions, with the exception of the “SMARTRing” agreement which has a single term of 60 months.  These Agreements continue to provide the County with high quality voice and data network performance, flexibility in network configuration and provisioning flexibility.  An extensive process of negotiations over a two (2) month period resulted in significant cost savings to the County in comparison to the predecessor AT&T Master Services Agreement.  The AT&T Agreements increase the County’s Volume and Term Reward Percentage from 20% to 21% on eligible services.  This increase in the rebate percentage, along with cost reductions in individual service components within the AT&T Agreements, will save the County an estimated $768,990 in communications expenditures in the first year with similar savings in each year thereafter.  An estimated $359,000 in further expenditure reductions will be achieved through the ongoing review and optimization of services currently being conducted by ISS and County agencies.  It is estimated that the County will spend $11,200,000 during the first 12 months of these agreements and the Volume and Term Reward percentage will generate an estimated $1,200,000 rebate check to the County. Countywide (PK)
