Year 1\nwill primarily consist of an assessment of the various networks and solutions for\nvulnerabilities, penetration testing, system monitoring, and staff training. Years 2 and 3 will be\nprimarily monitoring and additional testing, as required, for any system changes. The\nsubscription services will be provided in each of the three contract years. Additionally, this\namount includes contingency funds which are often needed for technology-related projects\nwhich frequently face unforeseen problems. The Harbor Department will be financially\nresponsible for payment of expenses incurred under the proposed Agreement.\nRecommendation: Board resolve to (1) find that the Director of Environmental Management\nhas determined that the proposed action is administratively and categorically exempt from the\nrequirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Article II Section 2(f)\nand Article III Class 1(6) of the Los Angeles City CEQA Guidelines; (2) find that in accordance\nwith the Los Angeles City Charter Section 1022, the services to be provided herein cannot be\nperformed by Harbor Department personnel or other current City job classifications; (3) find\nthat in accordance with the Los Angeles City Charter Section 1022 and Los Angeles\nAdministrative Code Section 10.15(a)(10) the proprietary nature of the ASTRO technology\nlimits the availability of specialized expertise to only the particular system vendor, and the\ndesire to utilize the same public safety system as the Los Angeles Police Department would\nmake it undesirable or impractical to utilize another system vendor; (4) approve the proposed\nAgreement between the City of Los Angeles Harbor Department and Motorola Solutions, Inc.;\n(5) authorize the Executive Director to execute and the Board Secretary to attest said\nAgreement for and on behalf of the Board; and (6) adopt Resolution No.____________.\nAccounting/Commission Office
