Purpose

to authorize a three year contract for $10,220 / yr

Background

Sauk County has utilized a Unitrends backup appliance since 2011.  The annual maintenance and support agreement for this device has been roughly $10,000 annually for the last six years. 

 

By renewing this agreement for a three-year term at $10,220 annually, Sauk County will receive a replacement device from the vendor in exchange for the current unit.

 

This device provides data backup for most Sauk County systems.  The current device is three and a half years old and annual support for this unit would be as much or more than the annual payment under the proposed three-year agreement.
