OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
The Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Commission
Steven J. Alexander, City Manager

South Miami
bOd iorr
2001
I!
A Resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Interlocal Agreement
with Miami-Dade County for IT maintenance and support services for an annual
amount of $165,500.
The City issued a Request for Proposal for IT Maintenance and Services as a result of the
City's current IT contractor, IDC, advising the City they would not be renewing their
agreement set to expire, September 30, 2013. The RFP was posted on the City'S website,
Demand Star and advertised in the Daily Business Review and Miami Herald.
The City received eight (8) proposals that were reviewed by a Selection Committee. The
Committee, comprised of; Kelly Barket, Public Works Superintendent, Rene Landa, Police
Chief and, Alfredo Riverol, Chief Financial Officer reviewed the proposals and created a
"short-list" numbering three proposals and decided to interview those firms.
In addition to the Selection Committee, Mr. Dennis Deblois, President/I DC, acted as a
technical expert to assist the committee as they analyzed each proposal. It must be
noted and pursuant to F.S 287.057, Section 2. Sub-section a), b) and c), since
IDC had access to source selection information the IDC is not eligible to
contract with the City for this required service. While IDC provided technical
expertise and profeSSional opinion, they did not score and rank proposals and, were not
present when the Selection Committee performed that task.
Each firm that responded to the RFP did not possess significant municipal and government
experience while acting as a primary on-site IT services provider, therefore it is my belief
that an Interlocal Agreement with Miami-Dade County is in the best interest of the City.
I have decided to reject all proposals received for RFP #IT-2014-01 and recommend the
Interlocal Agreement with Miami-Dade County's Information Technology Department
(lTD) and leverage their vast resources and experience in governmental information. It is
an opportunity which will provide City's personnel with the ability to provide immediate
service and response to better to serve the City's departments, residents, businesses, and
visitors.
Miami-Dade County has one goal in mind, which is directly in-line with the City's
objectives. to provide the best possible service to residents. businesses. and visitors of the
City of South Miami. Miami-Dade County is a governmental agency. like South Miami.
Both agencies already have many direct relationships; radios. GIS data. property
assessments. etc.
Miami-Dade County has submitted an Interlocal Agreement that has been improved but
that is substantially the same in scope and covered services that was presented to the
Commission on September 17. 2013. A summary of the offering is below: • "
COVERED SERVICES
The Miami-Dade County covered service section of the agreement includes the AV
equipment and any and all new purchases of equipment by the City. The new AV system
which was installed in December 2013. The AV system was not stated within the covered
section of the interlocal that was presented to the Commission on September 17. 2013.
because the item had not yet been purchased. The new system is completely Microsoft
windows based and in essences is nothing more than a hi-end computer.
COUNTY TICKET SYSTEM
The City of South Miami currently utilizes an internal ticketing system. similar to the one
being presented by Miami-Dade County's lTD. It is critical for management purposes that
all City personnel utilize a ticketing system. The system is not only used for the purpose of
providing service. but a way for management to determine where there are constant issues
and make certain determinations with reference to equipment needs.
The Miami-Dade County ticket system is available via phone 24-7. 365-days a year. Once a
ticket is opened it will be automatically assigned to the designated IT service technician
assigned to the City. The IT service technician will attempt to resolve trouble over the
phone. within minutes. versus waiting for a technician to visit when they are available. The
County's ticket system will be upgrade later this calendar year to provide self-service web-
based ticket system. This will eliminate holding on the phone when reporting troubles.
City personnel will be receiving immediate service by County onsite technician. and at no
additional cost to the City. irrelevant to when the call is made; during regular hours or
after-hours and remote access to address the issue is available at those times which will
eliminate many of the City personnel issues immediately.
PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST
The County will process public records request by third-parties requesting City public
records at no charge; this activity is included into the base rate. Any and all requests made
to lTD from the City will be treated as part of the IT Maintenance and Service Agreement
and will be provided at absolutely no additional cost to the City.
EXCLUDED SERVICES
The County excluded Website Support, Communications (Phone, Cellular Phones,
Voicemail) Support, and City’s ERP System and work conducted after-hours.
SPECIAL TECHNICIAN REQUESTS
Special technicians such as Microsoft Exchange, Firewall Specialist, etc. is covered under the
IT Maintenance and Service Agreement during the specified working hours. Only Special
Technician Requests which occur after-hours are charged to the City. Historically, within
the past 3-years it has been a rare occurrence that the City has required on-site technician
services on an emergency basis.
In the unlikely event Public Safety is involved in an after-hour issue, a decision will be made
by competent authority within the Police Department, as done today, if services are
required outside of normal working hours. The City has implemented redundancy in an
effort to reduce the requirement for an on-site technician. The City’s Police Department
has three different systems providing services and backup (OSSI with three dedicated
terminals, County CAD, and Dedicated circuit to the County).
CONTRACT CANCELATION
The County is a public entity no different than the City of South Miami and has only one
goal in mind, provide the best possible needed services to the residents, businesses and
visitors of the City. As mentioned, for-profit entities have a totally different philosophy,
how to increase their bottom line, irrelevant if services are needed or not.
Termination of the agreement with the county as specified within the Interlocal Agreement
is 120-days which will provide the City ample time to re-evaluate and decide for the next
possible step for the city. As with any private entity, the risk of going out of business is
always a great concern.
ENSURE SYSTEM ACCESSIBILITY
In the unlikely event of an after-hour emergency and remote access is unavailable, a
decision will be made to defer till the following workday or if critical onsite service will be
requested. However, as state above, historically, within the past 3-years it has been a rare
occurrence that the City has required on-site technician services on an emergency basis.
EXPENSE
ATTACHMENTS:
NEW SERVICES, SPECIAL PROJECTS AND RATES
The City will always attempt to provide New Services and Special Projects within the
regular normal business hours, with subject matter experts and IT professionals from the
county, as part of the planning phase. If the New Service or Special Project is not possible
to be included during the regular working hours, then the New Services and Special
Projects rates would apply.
Lastly, all Special Projects and New Services should be discussed, reviewed, and approved
during the budget process. Any additional charge for Special Projects and New Services
will be proposed within the annual budget for Commission approval. Items related to the
cost for Special Projects and New Services is treated no differently today with IDC than
how it will be when the City enters into an Interlocal Agreement with Miami-Dade County.

2. An unfair competitive advantage exists when the vendor competing for the
award of a contract obtained:
a) Access to information that is not available to the public and would assist the vendor in
obtaining the contract; or
b) Source selection information that is relevant to the contract but is not available to all
competitors and that would assist the vendor in obtaining the contract.
c) A person who receives a contract that has not been procured pursuant to subsections
(I )-(3) to perform a feasibility study of the potential implementation of a subsequent
contract, who participates in the drafting of a solicitation or who develops a program
for future implementation, is not eligible to contract with the agency for any other
contracts dealing with that specific subject matter, and any firm in which such person
has any interest is not eligible to receive such contract. However, this prohibition does
not prevent a vendor who responds to a request for information from being eligible to
contract with an agency.
