(a) this is a time sensitive situation where a supplier must be retained quickly; (b) there is compelling reason to retain the current maintenance contract vendor for the replacement work for the two servers. SecureWatch24, Inc is an authorized dealer of Genetec servers and installed the current unified security system. They have the source code and the exclusive right to provide upgrades and preventive maintenance to the existing security system, and, (c) this is more of an additional work to the maintenance contract but which is not practical and advantageous to award by change order or modification of to the original contract.
Description

OATH has a current contract with SecureWatch24, Inc covering all the five (5) borough office locations for the installation of security equipment, integration and centralization of independent security systems, as well as the maintenance of the entire Genetec security infrastructure. The security system is standardized on Genetec security equipment. The servers of the unified Genetec security infrastructure at the Long Island City office location had reached their end of life and support since last January 2020. They need to be immediately replaced with two Genetec servers capable of handling the band width of the unified system. The replacement work for the two servers needs to be procured from SecureWatch24, Inc because they are the current maintenance contractor and is an authorized dealer of Genetec servers who installed the current unified security system at OATH. Continuity of maintenance services for this critical system is essential to OATH and the City’s operations.
