Origin

(January 7, 2016) Report from the Fire Chief and General Manager, Fire Services and the Director, Purchasing and Materials Management

Summary

The purpose of this report is to request the authority to increase the value of the existing blanket contract 47019332 issued to Intergraph Canada Ltd, the vendor which provides Toronto Fire Services (TFS) with the Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) System and Business Intelligence (BI) software. The requested amendment will increase the blanket contract by an additional $800,000 net of HST ($814,080 net of HST recoveries). This amount will increase the contract value to $1,308,800 net of HST ($1,331,835 net of HST recoveries).

 

TFS has used Intergraph Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems since 2000. The CAD system is critical to TFS emergency response and is used to recommend the appropriate response to an emergency based on specific criteria. System adjustments and upgrades are an essential part of operating a mission critical system and ultimately have an impact service delivery. However, the TFS CAD is currently two releases behind the current Intergraph release.

 

Implementation of the Intergraph CAD release update maintains supportability and allows for continued vendor support. The upgrade is essential for TFS to move forward with numerous technological initiatives as outlined in the TFS Master Fire Plan 2015-2019 such as Fire Station Alerting, Dynamic staging, Mobile Responder and Traffic Signal Pre-emption with Live Interactive GPS.

 

City Council approval is required in accordance with Municipal Code By-Law Chapter 195-Purchasing, where the current request has exceeded the Chief Purchasing Official's authority of the cumulative five year commitment limit under Section 1 of the Purchasing By-Law and also exceeds the threshold of $500,000, net of HST, allowed under staff authority as per the Toronto Municipal Code By-Law, Chapter 71 - Financial Control.
