AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING A CONTRACT FOR THE PURCHASE OF A REPLACEMENT TELEPHONE SYSTEM

City Manager Gipson reported that staff is requesting approval of a contract for a replacement of the City’s Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephone system, including support and maintenance. The existing phone system needs to be upgraded to stay supported by the vendor. As staff analyzed upgrading the current system, it became apparent that it would be less expensive over the life of the system to purchase a different system which could still use our current desktop phones.
