Summary :
Current data center colocation provider has chosen to exercise numerous cost increases for their services. These costs have increased our annual spend and have made it hard to budget for. Based on a rigorous RFP evaluation process, DCSD IT has found a data center provider, US Signal, that adequately meets the district’s data center needs. Along with an annual cost savings of $34,000. Proposed data center colocation with US Signal: $8,294.00 per month ($99,528.00 annually). Total contract cost with implementation is $500,740.

Recommendation
That the Board of Education approve the 5-year contract of $500,740.00 spend for the data center colocation and option to renew with US Signal under Adoption of Consent Agenda.
