CONSENT AGENDA
The Administration recommended the Board of Directors award a contract for the Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) equipment to Alcatel USA Marketing (E:185/07). On April 3, 2007, six proposals were received in response to the Request for Proposal (RFP) for equipment and services to support the MAN. District staff have thoroughly evaluated the submitted proposals in accordance with the RFP. The findings of the evaluation team are attached to summarize the recommendation to award the contract to Alcatel USA Marketing for MAN equipment and related services, based on cost, product, features, support and overall best value for the District. The Board of Directors authorized a call for bids at the February 13, 2007, Board meeting.

Associate Superintendent Bob Collard said this has been an extremely thorough process and he feels very confident about the work that has been done. Having been involved in contracting for over 20 years, the process paralleled the quality of any he has ever seen, including those for hundreds of millions of dollars.

Director of Information Systems and Technology Ken Toyn followed a PowerPoint presentation and talked about the objectives of the network upgrade . He said the District wanted a standard solution vs. the two separate networks currently in operation. The District also wanted to simplify the network infrastructure and leverage current network technician skills and experience and lower network operating and maintenance costs. Certain critical requirements were cited, including being competitively priced; offering a mature line and future proof; high performance for converged networks; future proof network; maximum resiliency for best network uptime; distributed processing intelligence; multi-layer and flexible security; and advanced network traffic management.

Procurement Supervisor Jennifer Farmer reviewed the Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The specifications were released in late February. Six bidders provided complete, responsive and timely proposals. Interviews were conducted with all respondents; reference checks were solicited for two finalists; and scoring was tabulated for all respondents. Tonight’s recommendation represents the unanimous vote of the review committee. The criteria against which the RFPs were evaluated were: cost, their implementation plan, ongoing support, organizational stability and additional features. Alcatel USA Marketing was the clear leader.

Board member Yates asked whether there was a concern about the large discrepancy on the cost proposals, to which Jennifer said Alcatel Lucent recently merged and is looking for an opportunity to deploy in a school district in Washington that is progressive and looking at the size and scope of network right now. They have agreed to the potential for interlocal agreements which means they could attempt to see if other districts want to use their equipment as well.

With no further comments, Roy Yates moved to award the aforementioned contract for (MAN) equipment to Alcatel USA Marketing. Sue Cooper seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously.

(cont’d.)
The Administration recommended the Board of Directors adopt Resolution 882 in support of proposed Constitutional Amendment EHJR 4204 allowing local school levies to be approved by a simple majority of voters (Res.20/07). Dr. Whitehead noted that the constitutional amendment pertains only to local levies. By adopting the resolution, the Board will be agreeing with the legislation to put the item on the ballot. Other school districts have used similar language.

President Madsen said she voted with the WSSDA board on a similar resolution. Board member Petersen wondered whether stronger language should be added in support of voting “yes,” to which Dr. Whitehead said perhaps the Board could vote in favor of tonight’s resolution and then prepare another resolution closer to the election. Board member Yates asked whether WSSDA and others will be proactive in ensuring the voting public knows of this measure, to which President Madsen said there is an organization handling the effort to communicate to the voting public. Dr. Whitehead said there will need to be some action similar to the levy committee which is outside the school district but is made up of those who have an interest in the school district.

Board members Cooper and Petersen will draft a second resolution and look for opportunities to coordinate with other organizations that will promote the passage of the simple majority, such as political action committees outside of state organizations. President Madsen will provide the name and website of the statewide organization being formed to support the measure.

With no further comment, Sue Cooper moved for adoption of the aforementioned Resolution 882. Roy Yates seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously.

BOARD COMMENTS
Board member Petersen complimented Dr. Whitehead on the content and delivery of her community breakfasts and lunches.

Board member Cooper said the Everett Public Schools Foundation is searching for a new director because Marcee Grasso has resigned to attend to family issues. Ideas for replacements are welcome.

With no further comments, President Madsen called for a five-minute rest break at 5:30 p.m.
