The vendor carried this amount over 3 years with 3 years payments of$6,366.00 per year with the last payment in July of 2015. Sophos is retiring this equipment in two years and they are no longer offering discounted, multi-year support and licensing agreements for this firewall. It has now become more expensive to keep the existing firewall than it would be to upgrade to a new one. To continue licensing the existing firewall (Proposal Option 1)will cost the City $25,874 over 2 years. To upgrade (Proposal Option 2),the City will spend $30,896 over 3 years. Staff is recommending the City pursue proposal option 2. ATTACHMENTS: 1) Trebron proposal 2) Trebron Purchase Agreement FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): 1) The recommended proposal will cost$30,896.25 plus tax. Trebron will amortize this expense over 3 years at no cost to the City. This will result in a 2016 expenditure of$10,298.75 plus tax. We already have a $7,600.00 line item in the 2016 budget for firewall support leaving $3,594 remaining to fund. This amount will be absorbed into the existing 2016 expenditure budget with no budget adjustment anticipated. 2) 2017 and 2018 payments will be built in to the respective budgets.
