Title
Authorizing the Mayor to enter into a three-year subscription agreement for a Virtual Academy Training Management System; authorizing the General Fund expenditure of an amount not to exceed $90,000 subject to future appropriations; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
This ordinance authorizes the Mayor to enter into an agreement with Savant Learning Systems, Inc. for a subscription to the Virtual Academy Training Management System. The Virtual Academy Training Management System (TMS) is a fully integrated, cloud-based training management solution. This system provides officers with the ability to attend training in a web-based environment rather than requiring officers to be scheduled out of service for training. This system enables a more efficient use of each officer’s time for training by reducing the amount of time they are out-of-service. A bid was posted on Planet Bids for the purchase of a learning management system and Savant Learning Systems, Inc. was determined to be the lowest and best bidder.
Summary
NOW, THEREFORE, Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:
SECTION 1. That the Mayor is hereby authorized to enter into a Savant Learning Systems, Inc., agreement for a three-year subscription for the Virtual Academy Training Management System.
SECTION 2. That subject to annual appropriations an amount not to exceed $30,000 is authorized for expenditure from the General Fund Account Code 1001-52000-3381002STDSTD for the purpose authorized in Section 1 with annual subscription payments according to the following schedule:
• Year One $30,000
• Year Two $30,000
• Year Three $30,000
SECTION 3. That the Finance Director is authorized to draw his warrant or warrants against the above referenced Account Code in Section 2 in payment of the above-authorized obligations in Section 1, and upon presentation of proper voucher or vouchers.
SECTION 4. That this Ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and shall be in force and effect from and after its passage. The reason for the emergency lies in the fact that it is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, and property and for the further reason that the ordinance must be immediately effective in order to enter into the agreement with Savant Learning Systems, Inc. to provide officers with the most up-to-date training resources.
