Georgia) in the amount of $53,524.00 for annual software license maintenance

for the Permitting System utilized by Inspections and Code and the Business

License System utilized by the Finance Department?s Revenue Division. This

maintenance payment will cover ongoing support for both systems from July 1,

records. O.C.G.A Title 15 requires the Clerk of Superior Court to file,

record, index, maintain, and secure all real estate transactions for Muscogee

(F) FIRE AND EMS PATIENT CARE SOFTWARE



It is requested that Council approve the purchase of patient care software from

ImageTrend, Inc., (Lakeville, MN) in the amount of $55,500.00, plus $12,500.00

for annual software support, via a cooperative purchase, utilizing the State of

Georgia (Georgia Department of Public Health) Contract #40500-007-12120498.



Beginning January 1, 2011 all licensed ambulance services were required to

submit their patient care reports, electronically, into the Georgia Emergency

Medical Services Information System (GEMSIS), the patient care reporting

database for the Georgia State Office of EMS/Trauma. The State then submits

reports to NEMSIS (National EMS Information Systems). The Fire & EMS

department was using Firehouse EMS Mobile software to report the data to the

State. However, there were numerous issues with exporting the data to the

State?s site. Therefore, to meet the requirement, the Fire and EMS Department

has utilized light duty personnel to manually enter reports into the State?s

database, from the hand written reports generated by field personnel.

Approximately sixty (60) paper patient care reports are generated each day.

Currently, the department is down to one person entering the data;

consequently, it is difficult to keep up with the paperwork.



The purchase of this software will allow field reports to be entered

electronically and posted to the State?s database within 24 hours. The

department will also be able to electronically send the billing information to

the Revenue Division. Currently, personnel in the Revenue Division must also

enter the information manually into the billing system, from the hand written

patient care reports.



The State Office uses ImageTrend software for their reporting. Using the same

software will eliminate the problems previously experienced with data export.

Not only will the Fire & EMS Department have the support from the software

vendor, they will also have the support and the knowledge gained by the State

Office from using the software.



Funds are budgeted in the FY13 Budget: LOST/Public Safety ? Fire & EMS ?

Public Safety/LOST ? Computer Equipment; 0102 ? 410 ? 9900 ? LOST ? 7751.

Funds will be budgeted in subsequent budget years to cover the annual software

support costs.



* * * * * *



(G) MOBILE DATA TERMINAL (MDT) HARDWARE MAINTENANCE SUPPORT



It is requested that Council authorize payment to Motorola (Schaumburg, IL), in

the amount of $36,126.00, for Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) hardware maintenance.

This payment is for maintenance from February 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012.



The maintenance provides hardware support and repair for MW800 on a 24/7/365

schedule.

The MDTs are installed in patrol, fire and service vehicles. The units are

deployed throughout CCG in the Police Department, Sheriff?s Office, Fire

Department & Emergency Medical Services, Marshal?s Office and Inspections &

Codes.



All of the equipment is manufactured by Motorola and is proprietary in nature.

Therefore, the vendor is the Only Known Source, per Section 3-114 of the

Procurement Ordinance.



Funds are budgeted in the FY12 Budget: Emergency Telephone Fund ? Police ?

E911 Communications Center ? Service Contracts; 0209-400-3220-E911-6513.



* * * * * *



(H) DONATION AND PURCHASE OF SCOREBOARD FOR MEMORIAL STADIUM



It is requested that Council authorize the acceptance of a donation, in the

amount of $61,836.00, from Aflac toward the purchase of a new scoreboard for

Memorial Stadium; and expressing sincere appreciation to Aflac for the

donation. It is also requested that Council approve the purchase of the

scoreboard from Electro-Mech Scoreboard Company in the amount of $71,986.00,

plus the cost of installation. The amount exceeding the donation, $10,150.00,

plus the installation cost, will be paid out of the Parks and Recreation budget

for this project, in an amount not to exceed a total of $40,000.00.



Per an email dated July 17, 2012 to Parks and Recreation Director, James

Worsley, Aflac confirmed their desire to donate $61,836.00 toward the purchase

of a new scoreboard for Memorial Stadium. The scoreboard will display Aflac?s

logo, such as depicted in the picture below:



The scoreboard will be purchased from Electro-Mech Scoreboard Company to remain

consistent with scoreboards utilized throughout the Parks and Recreation

Department. Additionally, Facility Maintenance personnel are familiar with

maintaining and repairing the Eletro-Mech scoreboards.



The order must be placed with the company, as soon as possible, due to games

scheduled at Memorial Stadium in late August.



Funding for the amount exceeding the donation, $10,150.00 plus installation

cost, not to exceed a total of $40,000.00, is budgeted in the FY13 Budget:

Special Project/Capital Project Fund ? Capital Projects ? General Fund

Supported Projects ? Capital Expenditures - over $5,000 ? Memorial Stadium

Scoreboard; 0508 - 660 ? 1000 - CPGF ? 7761 ? 22931-20120.







Emergency Purchase ? Information Only



1. Emergency Purchase of Tray Washer for Muscogee County Jail:



On July 17, 2012 the Sheriff?s Department requested the emergency purchase of a

replacement dishwasher (tray-washer) for the Muscogee County Jail.



The current dishwasher was in need of major mechanical repairs due to the

recent failure of some of its major components (motor, conveyor & gearbox).

Over the past year it has had multiple on site repairs and incurred

considerable repair cost. As a result, a replacement dishwasher was included

in the Sheriff?s Department L.O.S.T FY13 capital outlay budget.



The Sheriff?s Department requested to purchase a tray washer because the

conveyor system is more durable and efficient in handling the meal trays than

the current dishwasher. Insinger is the manufacturer of tray washers,

specifically designed to handle meal trays for large facilities. The

Sheriff?s Department obtained quotes from the following vendors who could

supply this equipment:



Columbus Store Equipment (Columbus Georgia) *$56,654.40

Federal Supply USA (Waukegan, IL) 50,979.60

Cooks Direct (Warrenville, Il) 52,470.50

*Freight to be determined



The quotes from Federal Supply and Cook's did not address fabrication cost.

The existing stainless tables will require modification on both the inlet and

outlet side to work with the new machine. In addition, their quotes did not

address electrical modifications due to the switch from a dishwasher to a tray

washer, nor fabrication that will be required to the existing exhaust

ventilation system. All those issues have been identified and addressed in the

quote from Columbus Store Equipment. Therefore, the Sheriff?s Department

recommended the quote from Columbus Store Equipment, because the vendor

addressed all the requirements to provide and install the equipment. The

emergency purchase was further requested because the new tray washer is built

when ordered, and that process takes approximately four to six weeks from the

time the vendor receives the purchase order.



The Sheriff's Office understands this purchase exceeds the amount approved for

a "dishwasher" by $21,654. This shortfall will come from the $22,000 approved

for a kitchen kettle also approved in the FY13 L.O.S.T budget. Freight charges

will be determined and added when delivered. The kettle replacement will be

deferred until FY14.



The City Manager approved the emergency on July 17, 2012.



Funds are budgeted in the FY13 Budget: Public Safety LOST Fund ? Sheriff -

Public Safety LOST - Capital Expenses over $5,000 0102-550-9900-LOST-7761.

2. Electrical Fire at City Fleet Maintenance Shop



On July 19, 2012, around 1:00 am, a small electrical fire broke out in the

upstairs area at the Fleet Maintenance Shop. The sprinkler system was

activated. The fire damage was minimal, however, the water damage was

extensive. Approximately three (3) offices and a small break-room received

damage and require clean up



The Public Services Department requested approval to secure a restoration

company to aid in the clean up. The City Manager approved the emergency on

July 19, 2012.

The department contacted Servpro, who was on the site by 12:40 that

afternoon. The City?s Claims Service Coordinator, Tripp Childs, from J. Smith

Lanier was also on site to assess the damage.



The total cost of the damage has not been determined at this time.
