HomeMy WebLinkAbout09/20/2011, C2 - PUBLIC SAFETY SERVER REPLACEMENT �I I council McwyDW 9-20711 j ac,Enaa nepont 1�N�.b. c� CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO FROM: Deborah E. Linden, Chief of Police Prepared By: Melissa Ellsworth, Senior Administrative Analyst Miguel Guardado,.Supervising Network Administrator SUBJECT: PUBLIC SAFETY SERVER REPLACEMENT RECOMMENDATION Award a contract to Solutions II in the amount of $265,284 for the replacement of the public safety computer-aided dispatch and records management system servers. DISCUSSION Background Since January 1998, the Police and Fire departments have utilized software from Spillman Technologies (Spillman) to meet the City's public safety information management needs. The City started with two modules from Spillman: Computer-aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS). These modules process, store and manage all police and fire incident information within the City. Since the initial implementation, the CAD/RMS system has grown to encompass over 18 modules including: personnel management, mobile communications, evidence management, mapping tools, and numerous reporting systems. Current Server Status The existing public safety servers for the Spillman system were purchased in 2007. Staff's objective at that time was to design a system that would prevent the interruption of critical public safety systems should a server experience problems, require maintenance or fail. In order to achieve this goal, a system based on "clustering" was recommended which would provide server "uptime" 99.9%of the time. Clustering provides fault tolerance, whereby back-up elements are utilized to ensure continued system operation in the event of hardware failure. This design involved the purchase and configuration of two IBM servers, each being a mirror image of the other so that the end user would have little or no knowledge of one server being "down" or recognizing which server was in use. Because of this, both Police and IT staff work closely with Spillman and IBM to ensure that any changes made to the configuration and/or operating system are duplicated on each server. The clustered servers have worked well and have met the reliability goals. The Spillman servers had been scheduled for an upgrade in 2010; however, due to the stability of the servers at that time, IT staff recommended postponing the replacement. Servers wear out over time and lose their reliability, and become unable to support software upgrades and C2-1 O Council Agenda Report—Public Safety Server Upgrade Page 2 advancements. Therefore, a server upgrade was approved in the 2011-13 Financial Plan, with $350,000 budgeted in 2011-12 for the upgrade. Staff considered a "Cloud Based" solution for this project, but due to the high security Department of Justice and 99.9% system uptime requirements, cloud computing was not a viable solution. Server Design Police and IT staffs have been working with Spillman and their recommended vendor, Solutions II, since mid-June to design a system with the following requirements: I. Support existing Spillman applications. 2. Allow for future Spillman upgrades and module implementation. 3. Continue to prevent interruption of critical public safety services by applying the existing clustered environment to the server replacements. 4. Design a system that will allow for disaster recovery (DR) possibilities in the future. This design would provide an opportunity to relocate one of the servers to an offsite location. Contract Award -Sole Source Justification In past years the City used a Spillman recommended technical consultant, ASG for maintenance and support of the Spillman CAD/RMS system at Police. ASG no longer supports Spillman services which resulted in Spillman selecting a new exclusive service vendor for their products. Spillman Technologies has developed a strong working relationship with Solutions H, a provider of technology solutions to Spillman public safety agencies. Solutions II is very experienced with Spillman software and the company has managed and implemented clustered server projects for other Spillman sites, utilizing IBM solutions, which is preferred by IT staff. Because Solutions II works so closely with Spillman, the company has an understanding of the City's public safety software needs. Because of this experience, Solutions II is highly qualified to recommend and deliver an optimal server design for the City. Spillman will also have a technician on-site during the server implementation process, assisting the City and Solutions II with the upgrade. For these reasons staff's recommendation is to sole source the CAD/RMS upgrade project to Solutions H. Project Schedule Tasks Date 1. Execute contract September, 2011 2. Configure and Install New Infrastructure October, 2011 3. Test GLVM Replication and Failover October, 2011 4. Migrate Spillman data to new servers November, 2011 5. Dispatch goes live with new server system November 14,2011 CONCURRENCES The Police and Fire Chiefs and the Director of Finance/IT concur with the recommendation. C2-2 �✓ V Council Agenda Report—Public Safety Server Upgrade Page FISCAL IMPACT The City Council appropriated $350,000 to replace the Spillman servers as part of the 2011-13 Financial Plan. CIP funds are currently available for this project: FY 201142 Capital-Improvement Plan _ Budget Computer Aided Dispatch Server Replacement $350,000 40080100.91096956 91096400.910969 ALTERNATIVES 1. Defer or deny the project. Given the age of the existing servers, the mission critical nature of the Spillman applications, and the need to upgrade software in the near future, it is imperative the replacement occur this fiscal year in order to avoid risk of failure. Additionally, due to IT's project schedule, deferring the replacement of the servers may result in conflicts with other project timelines and therefore limit the resources available for this upgrade. 2. Initiate a formal bid process. Due to the nature of this application, the existing relationship between Spillman and Solutions II, and Solutions I1's knowledge of the Spillman application and the City's needs, staff believes that Solutions II (in collaboration with Spillman) is uniquely qualified to recommend and implement the ideal server system. Contracting with Solutions 11 also allows for more accountability from Spillman because of their close relationship. Staff does not recommend conducting an open bid process for the server replacement given the efficiencies to be gained by sole source contracting with Solutions II. It is important to note that Solutions II utilized the Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA) pricing as its pricing standard and was able to provide us with a pricing discount ensuring that the City is getting the best price possible.

Unless signed, this contract will expire on September 30, 2011. Solutions II will perform the following, at the times specified, during the term of the Agreement. The project duration for all development will begin upon execution of this contract, or at such later time as the parties agree to herein. Due to the nature of the project being conducted by Solutions II, any delay in the completion of the project not directly under the control of Solutions II (i.e. not caused by the negligence of Solutions 11) will not be held to be the responsibility of Solutions 11. Solutions II will install a new Spillman two-site.infrastructure consisting of an IBM Power 7 720 machine at each location along with a hardware management console (HMC) for management. Solutions II will install a multi-LPAR solution so that each location will be able to run a production Spillman LPAR simultaneous with a dev/test Spillman LPAR. All four environments will be installed with the latest good level of AIX 6.1. A HMC (Hardware Management Console) will be installed at the both locations to act as a maintenance focal and provide management for the two PARS at each location. Underlying VIO (Virtual 1/0) servers will be installed per current best practices to provide for a flexible and scalable 1/0 environment. All operating system instances will be tuned per current Solutions II Spillman database guidelines. A NetApp 2020 will provide the storage for each location. Solutions II will install, configure, and provide knowledge transfer for these storage arrays. The two production p720 machines will act as source and target locations for the installation and setup of a GLVM (Geographic Logical Volume Manager) at both locations. GLVM will provide replication services utilizing existing IP connectivity link(s) between the primary and backup locations. Solutions II will utilize existing bandwidth between locations and San Luis 1 of 7 pages Client Solutions II C2-10 Solutions 11 EXHIBIT Proprietary&Confidential Obispo will ensure that bandwidth is high enough to support the replication of the environments.
