Grandinetti Sunny Isles Beach Police Department 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, Florida 33160 Dear Capt Grandinetti, Safeware is pleased to provide to the City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida the Phase II Deployment of a multiple zone security solution with an expandable high bandwidth video surveillance system which includes Closed Circuit TV Cameras, and the wired& wireless connectivity to support the CCTV System.This solution is being procured under the Safeware US Communities government contract vehicle and all Safeware US Communities contract pricing,terms and conditions are compliant under the US Communities government contract titled: "Homeland Security& Public Safety/Emergency Preparedness" contract#: 4400001839 The U.S. Communities contract aggregates the purchasing power of more than 90,000 public agencies nationwide by offering Participating Public Agencies the ability to make purchases through existing, competitively solicited contracts between a supplier and a lead public agency. Currently there are more than 77,000 participating State& Local government agencies utilizing the US Communities contract. Utilizing this contract saves agencies time& money. Since the contract was already competed there is no need for our city to replicate the RFP process plus with the aggregate nationwide purchasing power,this contract provides us a 41%or greater discount off of the vendor's list price. With the procurement timeframe being compressed this grants us the ability to meet critical project deadlines. Lastly by utilizing this contract we are not publically exposing our security vulnerabilities. This is a complete multi-phase,turn-key security solution and it is being provided at a"firm fixed price" as defined in the line item pricing Safeware submitted to the city(please refer to previously provided Safeware official US Communities contract quotes). In closing, Safeware appreciates the trust the City of Sunny Isles Beach has extended to Safeware and our partners, we feel this security solution will best serve the security and public safety needs of the City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida. Sincerely, Peter Van Kirk Director, Government Security Solutions Safeware ATTACHMENT "A"
