Title
C14 - District Print Center Equipment Refresh
Description

The District Print Center currently services our Schools and Departments by providing Black & White printed material at a reasonable cost.  A few on the items produced are FIC cards, Free and Reduced Lunch Applications, Title 1 Information Letters, No Child Left Behind Information, Employee Handbooks and Forms, CCEA and CESPA Contract Books, MIS Forms, Training/Workshop Material, Supplemental Curriculum for Students, Tardy/Clinic/Hall Passes, and envelopes. School year 2017/2018 the Print Center had an estimated 1,577 job requests totaling over $200,000.

The economical pricing the Print Center offers our Schools and Departments is based on the material, supplies and equipment cost that the Print Center incurs.  We ask for feedback on the interested of adding a Color Printing option back to the Print Center and concluded that it would be another economical savings. The Print Center can begin printing Color Graduation Programs, Flyers, Certificates, and Booklets.

The District currently has 2 leased Black & White printing production systems that will require relocation to the new Print Center site.  This specialized printing equipment can only be disassembled, moved, and reinstalled by certified technicians and is costly. The District has 21 months remaining on the current lease and feels that an estimated $280 monthly increase to upgrade the equipment to the new location and to include the color option is the best us of our resources.

Gap Analysis

The District requires contractors to provide services to ensure our ​​facilities and equipment are maintained and functional. The District requires vendors to provide products to ensure our students and staff receive the items to meet their needs.

Previous Outcomes

The district has been using Xerox production equipment for the past fifteen plus years and we happy with the quality and reliability of the equipment. Xerox provides us with Service Technicians that are experienced and respond in a timely manner.

Expected Outcomes

Upon approval by the Board, we expect the vendor to provide quality services and products so the District Print Center can continue providing quality service and product to the Schools and Departments.

Strategic Plan Goal

The District ensures fiscal responsibility and equitable distribution of resources.

Recommendation

Authorize the Superintendent to finalize and execute the Lease Agreements and Pool Plan Agreement utilizing the National Joint Powers Alliance (Sourcewell) Contract #083116-XOX.
