This action would authorize the Airport's current security contractor to install the new

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Airport's Improve/Modify/Rehab Terminal Complex Project is intended to enhance
the security at the airport and requires additions and/or modifications to the existing
security access control system in order to accomplish this and adhere to the
requirements set forth by the TSA. There is a prohibition against exposing the specific
details of this equipment and procedures in order to preserve the integrity of Airport
Security. The entire airport security system was installed by Systems Integration, Inc.

Systems Integration—Terminal Complex Project
and it continues to maintain and update the system for the Airport. This company has
provided a quote to acquire and install the necessary additional new state-of-the-art
security components that will accommodate the new facilities being constructed within
the terminal development program. The total amount of the equipment and work is
$125,321.22.
The Palm Springs Municipal Code Section 7.04.030 states, "A contract may be awarded
by Council without competition when it is determined that an unusual or unique situation
exists, in that due to experience and expertise demonstrated in prior contracts with the
city a particular contractor is uniquely qualified for a particular task, that makes the
application of all requirements of competitive sealed bidding of competitive sealed
proposals contrary to the public interest." Systems Integration, as the systems
installing/maintenance contractor, has developed and demonstrated the special
expertise required by Section 7.04.030, therefore, staff is recommending the award of
the proposed security system expansion work via a special expertise Purchase Order.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds are available in 415-6500-56101 Rehab Terminal Complex account.
