Technology Director Chris Whitlock will be out of town attending a required E-rate conference. In his absence, Dr. Brian Weaver will present the 2018 Chromebook purchase. Board approval is required for purchases over $90,000. This is a funded, annually recurring item in the capital outlay budget. The IT department is using the federal TIPS contract for purchasing this year, as it has in the past. When using a federal purchasing contract, multiple vendor bids are not required; however, bids were obtained to verify pricing (see attached). The new Chromebooks will be used to replace the current student devices at Brevard High School. The current student Chromebooks will be repurposed as loaner machines and for other uses throughout the district. Dr. Weaver will make a recommendation and answer any questions you may have.
A motion is in order to approve the Chromebook purchase for the 2018-2019 school year.
