City Council Report Date: May 18, 2026 To: City Council Through: Michael Kennington, Deputy City Manager/Chief Financial Officer From: Edward Quedens, Business Services Director Kristy Garcia, Procurement Administrator Subject: 52-Month Use of a Cooperative Term Contract for the Purchase of Apple Computer Products for the Department of Innovation and Technology (Citywide) Recommendation Council is requested to approve the award as recommended. The Department of Innovation and Technology and Procurement Services recommend authorizing the purchase using the Mohave Educational cooperative contract with Apple in an amount not to exceed $600,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5% or the adjusted Consumer Price Index. Background / Discussion This contract provides for Apple PC cycle replacements and supplemental purchases of laptops and tablets for various Citywide departments as needed. It supports the City’s ongoing PC Cycle Replacement Program, ensuring that end-user devices are refreshed on a regular schedule to maintain reliability, security, and compatibility with current software standards. In addition to scheduled replacements, the contract allows departments to procure supplemental equipment to meet operational needs, accommodate staffing changes, and support evolving technology requirements. The Mohave Educational cooperative contract has been competitively bid and meets the City’s procurement requirements. Utilizing the Mohave contract allows the City to secure competitive rates based on a formally solicited agreement. The City believes the pricing is fair and reasonable and issuing a separate solicitation for these products would not result in the City receiving more favorable pricing or terms.
