RE:Request to Purchase Two Portable Radios

REQUEST:

I respectfully request Council approve the purchase of two (2) Harris HG-25 portable radios from Communications International Harris Corporation at a total cost of $3,839.10.




DISCUSSION
:

The above listed radios are needed to replace two non-functioning outdated units that are too costly to repair. This radio equipment is proprietary and only manufactured by Harris Corporation -- a New Port Richey based company. Communications International – 7792 Professional Place, Tampa, Florida 33637, is the certified Harris Network Service Provider for our area and the sole authorized service provider for our account.




RECOMMENDATION:

I recommend the purchase of two (2) portable radios from Communications International at a total cost of $3,839.10.




BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

Equitable Sharing monies will be used to purchase these radios; therefore, there is no direct impact to the Department’s F/Y 2017/2018 Budget.
