This agreement was based on a competitive bidding process <br />conducted by the County of San Joaquin. The City has been using this <br />anti-virus software to protect computers used in all City Departments. <br />That agreement is expiring. The City would like to amend the agreement <br />with ASAP Software to continue to receive Trend Micro's anti-virus <br />product license as well as technical support and services. <br /> <br />The operations of all City Agencies and Departments benefit from the <br />protection provided by the Trend Micro products against the destructive <br />affects of computer viruses. In addition, the 24x7 service will help <br />ensure extended support for these Trend Micro products is available to <br />the many City service providers that operate around the clock (e.g. SAPD, <br />SAFD, the Water Division, the Traffic Division, etc.) or operate extended <br />hours (e.g. the Library, Building Inspectors, etc.) Anti-virus protection <br />will be enabled for 2,000 City computers and 35 additional special stand- <br />alone City computers. <br /> <br />The Information Services Division recommends that the current agreement <br />with Dell/ASAP Software be extended and funding added to provide this <br />vital computer security for the City's computer environment. <br /> <br />/ <br /> <br />25C-1 <br />
