Summary:
This procurement is in support of a new wireless network infrastructure for College Park High School, Concord High School, Mt. Diablo High School and Ygnacio Valley High School.

Northgate High School was part of a pilot that evaluated multiple wireless manufacturers, including HP, Cisco and Aruba. Aruba was ultimately selected and approved by the MDUSD Board of Education on the 4/11/16. This docket represents the next phase of our wireless rollout, and supports the remaining comprehensive high schools.

The lowest responsible quote was received from Dasher Technologies, who provided the attached pricing. Pricing is based on the Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA) contract as the vendor’s piggy-back contract. Contract # 7-14-70-03. Currently deployed wireless access points will be redistributed to other school sites when appropriate.
