City Council Report 
 
Date: 
March 9, 2026 
To: 
City Council 
Through: 
Michael Kennington, Deputy City Manager/Chief Financial Officer 
From: 
Edward Quedens, Business Services Director 
 
Kristy Garcia, Procurement Administrator 
Subject: 
Three-Year Term Contract with Two-Year Renewal Options for Traffic 
Management Center (TMC) Video Wall Upgrade (Replacement) for the 
Transportation Department (Citywide) 
 
Recommendation 
 
Council is requested to approve the award as recommended. 
 
The Transportation Department and Procurement Services recommend awarding the 
contract to the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder, AVI-SPL, LLC, in amounts not 
to exceed $155,000 for Year 1 and $10,000 annually for each subsequent year, with an 
annual increase allowance of up to 5% or the adjusted Consumer Price Index.   
 
Background / Discussion 
 
The first year of the contract will cover the furnishing, installation, configuration and support 
of a new wall processor system for the City’s Traffic Management Center (TMC) within the 
Mesa Transportation Department. The upgraded system will replace the existing video wall 
processor, which has reached end-of-life and end-of-support status. The current processor 
also poses a cybersecurity risk, as its software can no longer be updated to meet modern 
security and performance standards. Subsequent contract years will cover warranties, 
maintenance and repairs.
