RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

 

Authorize the County Procurement Officer or Deputized designee to execute contract with One Diversified LLC for Diversified audio-visual technician support services effective upon execution of all necessary signatures, for a term of three calendar years, in an amount not to exceed $662,241.

 

 

 

 

SUMMARY:

 

Award of contract to One Diversified LLC for Diversified audio-visual technician support services will allow the County to address gaps that exist in the current technical meeting support capabilities.

 

 

 

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

 

The County Administration North (CAN), County Administration South (CAS), County Conference Center (CCC), and Old County Courthouse conference rooms are equipped with a diverse array of sophisticated broadcast production equipment and technologies.  These conference rooms host recurring public meetings presented by County executives and elected officials.  Currently, the County relies on a dedicated Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) technician for on-site audio-visual support and meeting troubleshooting. Unfortunately, these meetings have encountered delays and cancellations due to SAIC’s lack of expertise with County-specific broadcast equipment and conference room technologies.

 

To mitigate these issues, the County seeks to have a highly skilled on-site audio-visual technician who can handle repairs and set up conference room technology before and during meetings.  By doing so, the risk of meeting delays, relocations, or cancellations can be significantly reduced. The current services provided by the SAIC technician will be terminated upon approval of this proposed contract with One Diversified LLC.

 

One Diversified LLC is uniquely qualified to fill this role.  They have actively participated in installing and supporting County broadcast equipment and conference room technologies since 2021.  Their extensive knowledge and expertise, gained through past performance, provide valuable insights into the specific conference room technologies deployed across the CAN, CAS, CCC, and Old County Courthouse conference rooms.

 

The proposed contract is a sole source contract. If this contract cannot be established with One Diversified LLC, the County would need to accept gaps that exist in the current meeting support capabilities, as it would be financially detrimental to attempt to implement an alternate vendor.

 

The contract does not include subcontractors. The Orange County Preference Policy is not applicable to this contract award. In order to remediate ongoing conference room support issues, this item is being submitted within 30 days of contract commencement.

 

 

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

 

Appropriations for this contract are included in Budget Control 017's FY 2024-25 Budget and will be included in the budgeting process for future fiscal years.
