Agenda Item Summary:
This is an update to the original item from 3/12/2025. It is updating the price. The change is due to a mistake by IT in using the budgetary quote and also due to increases in price since the time of that quote. All other information is unchanged.

Due to the Broadcom purchase of VMware, the city must find a new storage array to hold all of the city data. PureStorage provides the necessary storage at the best price and after initial purchase allows us in place upgrades for the cost of annual maintenance (approximately $18,000). This will be funded from disaster recovery CIP as it is a replacement to current server storage.
