Summary of Request:
In November 2018 the Board approved the IT Master Plan and allocated $1 million to fiscal year 2018-19 projects. The IBM Message Switch replacement was identified as one of these projects. The IBM message switch is a critical hardware component that handles messages between the California Department of Justice California Department of Justice and the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office. The message switch is a required by the California Department of Justice to securely send, receive, and route highly secured data necessary for law enforcement, dispatch, and criminal justice business. The current message switch will be past maintenance life. Catastrophic failure of this item would result in all critical and highly secured information not being sent to and from the DOJ. On March 15, 2019, the County issued RFQ 16-19 seeking quotations for the IBM message switch. The Executive Office is requesting the IBM message switch be added to the County's fixed asset list and to finalize the purchase.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not authorize addition and provide direction to staff.
