Title

Authorizing the Mayor to enter into a three-year agreement with Savant Learning Systems, Inc.; authorizing the General Fund expenditure of an amount not to exceed $20,000 for the first year, $25,000 for the second year, and $30,000 for the third year 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. Virtual Academy was the winning bidder. 

 

Summary

NOW, THEREFORE, Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:

 

                     SECTION 1. That the Mayor is authorized to enter into an agreement with Savant Learning Systems, Inc. for a three-year subscription for the Virtual Academy Training Management System.   

 

                     SECTION 2. That the total amount not to exceed $75,000 is authorized for expenditure from the General Fund Account Code 1001-52000-3381002STDSTD for a three-year subscription for the Virtual Academy Training Management System, subject to future appropriations for years two and three.

 

                     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 obligation authorized 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.
