Background and Discussion:

Job #190290 was awarded for structured cabling, audio/visual installation and related items for Harris County. This is the third of four 1-year renewal option.

 

 

Expected Impact:

Renewal of this contract will allow the awarded suppliers for this contract to continue providing the services and items needed for current and future projects with the same level of quality of service.

 

 

Alternative Options:

Not renewing this contract will force to purchase from other suppliers who will not have the same knowledge and the working relationship with the county, and therefore, will cause project delays.

 

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

X Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation
