On May 28, 2018, the County of Humboldt issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the purpose of selecting a qualified contractor to provide the products and services necessary to complete the Humboldt County Radio System Replacement Project. The proposals submitted in response to the RFP were evaluated and ranked by the county's selection committee. The highest-ranking proposer was determined to be Motorola Solutions, Inc.
On Dec. 18, 2018, your Board approved the contract agreement with Motorola in the total amount of $5,650,000 (without estimated taxes included). This agreement included a milestone payment of 10% of the total contract value. The first milestone was completed in fiscal year (FY) 2022-23, the second milestone under this project was completed in FY 2024-2025.
The proposed supplemental budget adjustment will open the fixed asset line for tracking of the Humboldt County Radio System Replacement Project to allow payment of this milestone.
