| 06-08-2009 : | Icom America's DRB digital repeater is approved for sale on the contract. The product met the terms of the contract, is competitively priced and meets the best interests of the customer, Astoria, Oregon. | |
| 06-04-2009 : | Icom America called to inquire about offering extended warranties on products sold on the WSCA contract #02702. Discuss this issue with WA management. Many states have similar provisions as the federal government stating that extended warranties cannot be offered. The reason is that products and services must be delivered before payment. No prepayment is allowed under GSA or the State of Washington. While generally most WSCA participants would have the same regulation, extended warranties are different in that it only extends the current terms and conditions for that sale longer than the standard warranty. Also, the purchaser already has the authority to purchase warranties because of the minimal cost. WSCA does not have a problem if a vendor wants to offer extended warranties to customers with one requirement, show that the warranty offered is sold at a competitive price and provides a good value for the customer. Since contract extension time is upon us, the opportunity to offer extended warranties will be available to all vendors on the next extension. Until that time, WSCA does not have a problem with a customer using their own purchasing authority to obtain extended warranties on WSCA products. | |
| 06-01-2009 : | Drafted solicitation letter for 24 vendors to start the contract extension for 2 years while working on the rebid process. Letters should go out this week. | |

Wisconsin deletes the 1/2 of 1% to th pricing that Wisconsin added last December for Wisconsin purchases on the contracts. This deletion only applies to Motorola products sold in Wisconsin. Wisconsin adds unique terms and conditions that govern its participation with Motorola on the contract and otherwise fulfills all of the requirements to participate on the contract. | |
| 05-21-2009 : | The State of Maine requests to participate on the contract with Motorola. Maine's only modification to the master price list and contract terms is to list Yankee Communications, 56 Albion Road, Benton, ME 04901 as an authorized sub-contractor for Motorola. Maine allows its agencies and political subdivisions to particiapate on the contract. Maine fulfills all of the requirements for participation on the contract and will be added the participating states. | |
| 05-18-2009 : | GE MDS, LLC upgrades a radio current sold on the contract. Also, vendor proses a price increase on some products due to manufacturer increase pricing.

| 04-06-2009 : | The State of Oklahoma requests to participate on the WSCA Contract #02702, Public Safety Communication Equipment with General Dynamics Satcom Technologies, Inc. (General Dynamics). Since Oklahoma is a NASPO member and a participating state they are authorized to use the WSCA contract for public safety purchases of equipment and services. Oklahoma’s petition allows all of its agencies, departments, political subdivisions and qualified nonprofits organizations to use the contract. Oklahoma also adds a 1% administrative fee for sales within the State of Oklahoma. The administrative fee was in the original participating addendum and was already approved by the lead state. Included with Oklahoma’s participating addendum is Attachment A, which specifies some special terms and conditions unique to the Oklahoma Central Purchasing Division. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by the contractor, and the document meets all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. This is our normal and customary process. This contract action does not significantly increase the scope of the contract in terms of dollars. Oklahoma was not able to provide their anticipated spend on this contract so we are unable to determine how much the scope of the contract will be impacted. Since Oklahoma’s petition is only expanding it participation at this time, I recommend that the participating addendum be accepted based on the documents submitted for counter signature. | |
| 03-03-2009 : | Received a price adjustment request from JPS/Raytheon. JPS offers to lower the price of a product already on contract. Pulled contract to process contract amendment and conduct a price analysis for JPS product. | |

| 12-19-2008 : | Made a follow-up call to Joel Stone of Rohn/Radian about extension on the WSCA contract. Radian and Rohn are spitting up into two separate companies. Both have products listed on the contract. GA has been negotiating with both entities for an authorized person to sort out the products so WSCA can extend the contract for the remainder of a one year extension. Radian and Rohn signed a 60 extension on Oct. 29, 2008 so that the legal status and contract issues could be sorted out. Those issues have not been resolved. GA made several phone to Joel Stone of Rohn to warn of the pending deadline of 12/29/08 for the contract extension. Rohn is deciding whether or not to continue on the contract. | |

The offers from the vendors all comply with WSCA rules and is in the best interest of the State. | |
| 10-16-2008 : | Received a letter from EF Johnson corporate headquarters about merging several entities into one subsidiary. The parent company EF Johnson Company is merging 3 companies into one call EF Johnson Technologies, Inc. EF Johnson wants permission to assign its WSCA contract rights to the new entity. WA requested the vendor to modify the official assignment letter to include a statement that the new entity will assume all of the rigths and obligations of the WSCA terms and conditions to sell under the contract. The official date of the merger is pending. | |
| 10-13-2008 : | Sent out 3rd request for contract renewal amendments to be completed by Tuesday, October 12, 2008. Vendors have been sent notices and reminders August, Sept and twice in October 2008. Most of the amendment have been received, but some vendors are outstanding: EF Johnson, Motorola, Eltek Valere, JPS, M/A Com, Radian, Smartlink, Valmont. Upon approval, contract will be extended for 12 months, effective Oct. 29, 2008 to Oct 28, 2009. Many vendors have provided discounted pricing of at least 1% off of the current pricing. | |
| 10-06-2008 : | Two contractors have merged with other companies or was sold to other companies. WSCA did not receive official notice of the separate entities or which products belong to whom. Radian and Smartlink each have merged or sold their company to another non-WSCA entity. Conference calls are being held to determine who has the contract rights to WSCA, the listed company or the other entity. After determining which company has WSCA products, contract amendments will be produced to put the WSCA products with the appropriate company and list that company on the contract. | |
| 10-06-2008 : | Sent 2nd notice to contractors about the pending contract extension.

Many vendors have offered an additional 1% discount for the 12 month term. | |
| 06-13-2008 : | In a phone call with Jim Driscoll of Vertex Standard, discovered that on Jan. 22, 2008, Motorola purchased an 80% interest in Vertex Standard. Both companies will continue to operate seperately and keep the same names. Vertex will operate as a wholly owned subsidary company of Motorola. Both companies are calling it a joint venture. Most of the sales managers of Vertex Standard were dismissed except Jim Driscoll. None of these actions should have much effect on WSCA business. | |
| 05-28-2008 : | Discussed with Marcia Gatlin of JPS Communications the equipment transfer from contract #06003 to #02702. Neither she nor Keith Armstrong, the contract administrator facilitated the transfer of equipment from one contract to the other. It appears that most of the items on the old contract are listed on the radio contract (#02702). Administrator and Ms. Gatlin confirmed that most of the items were upgraded and put on contract #02702. Some accessories such as cables, spare modules are not on the radio contract at a discount. Items like Hardigg cases, power supply, handset, ACU 1000 bundle, etc. are on contract #02702 at a discount. | |
| 05-28-2008 : | Received notice from GA’s management analyst that no quarterly reports were received for contract #06003. The contract system states that the contract ended last year. Sent e-mail to Marcia Gatlin of Raytheon/JPS Communications requesting confirmation that Washington contract #06003 was terminated March May 22, 2007. Rick Burns indicated in records below that the contract ended in May 2007. I requested confirmation that the items offered under #06003 are now offered on the Public Safety Communication Equipment, WSCA Contract #02702. Asked Ms. Gatlin to check the current contract information on #02702 to see if the items offered on the old contract is now listed under her category on the new contract. Being the contract administrator for #02702, I am unaware that the radio interface systems are indeed listed on #02702. Awaiting JPS’s confirmation. | |
| 03-21-2008 : | At a WA meeting between WSCA contract administrators and Policy Manager Zeigler, we reviewed the process for admitting WSCA and non-WSCA states to the contract. For poly-sub-non-wsca state need approval all the way to WSCA Board. Non-WSCA state also needs WSCA Board approval. For WSCA states or poly-subs from WSCA states, only Unit Manager or Purchasing agent need sign depending on the dollar amount. This clarification will be placed in the WSCA file for future reference. | |
| 12-17-2007 : | The State of Arizona requests to renew its participation on the WSCA contract. Arizona executes this agreement with Valmont Industries. Included with Arizona’s participating addendum is Attachment 2.1 which includes its terms and conditions for doing business within Arizona. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by Valmont and Arizona. The petition meets all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. Arizona has determined that this contract action is cost-effective and is in the best interests of the State. There is little risk by renewing Arizona’ participation on the contract. Arizona's purchases will add to the total spend on the contract and I recommend that Arizona's renewal petition be accepted based on the document submitted. | |
| 08-13-2007 : | I’ve reviewed Keith’s recommendation grant the State of Kansas their request to renew its participating addedum to the WSCA radio contract 02702 and approved the action based on the information provided. | |
| 08-09-2007 : | The State of Kansas wants to renew its participating addendum on the WSCA contract from June 2007 until October 30, 2008. Kansas executes this agreement with Aeroflex Wichita, Inc. Included with its participating addendum, Kansas includes a contract award document, Attachment A, a contractual provisions attachment and a contractor contact page. Additionally, Kansas attaches several unique terms and conditions, which include a ½ of 1% administration fee to be paid by the vendor. The administrative fee has been incorporated into the unit prices of this contract. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by Aeroflex Wichita, Inc. and Kansas, and meet all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. Kansas has determined that this contract action is cost-effective and is in the best interests of the State. There is little risk by renewing Kansas's participation on the contract. I recommend that Kansas's renewal petition be accepted based on the documents submitted. | |
| 08-09-2007 : | The State of Kansas wants to renew its participating addendum on the WSCA Contract #02702 from June 2007 until October 30, 2008. Kansas executes this agreement with Tessco, Inc. Tessco, Inc. supplies products for Radio Frequency Systems (RFS), a major contractor in category 7 of the WSCA contract. Included with Kansas' participating addendum are documents identified as Attachment A, a contractual provisions attachment and a contractor contact page. Additionally, Kansas attaches several unique terms and conditions, which include a ½ of 1% administration fee to be paid by the vendor. The administrative fee has been incorporated into the unit prices of this contract. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by Tessco, Inc. and Kansas, and meet all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. Kansas has determined that this contract action is cost-effective and is in the best interests of the State. There is little risk by renewing Kansas's participation on the contract. I recommend that Kansas's renewal petition be accepted based on the documents submitted. | |
| 07-12-2007 : | Sent contract amendment 5 which proposes to add GE MDS, LL to the WSCA contract, providing 900 MHz radio products. Contractor previously sold 900 MHz radio products under a WA state contract #01801, but that contract reached its maximum term. Negotiations on pricing and terms have been completed, so just signatures from the manufacturer are pending. Contract amendment should be completed and effective by the end of July 2007. | |
| 07-06-2007 : | Held a phone conference with Don Phfol about the specifications. Mr. Phfol discovered that the consultant Guy Cranor hired to construct the specs when the contract was developed apparently made a specific specification that was unusual and probably based on a Washington need rather than a general need. Mr. Phfol stated that the same spec was used for all levels of radios. This cause EFJohnson to bid the same price for all levels, high, medium and low levels of radios. The category had A, B, C, and D from numerous channels to few channels respectively. The problem is that EFJohnson bid the same high price for each level regardless of radio capacity. Mr. Phfol is comparing and verifying these specs with standards in the industry. He will then differeniate the specs to appropriate levels from high number of channels to a low number of channels for the 2-way radios. He plans to be finished by July 12, 2007. Once received, the specs will go out for solicitation to vendors within the contract. There will be multiple awards for categories B, C and D. Since A is a specialized category, EF Johnson will be able to keep that level on the contract. All other eligible vendors on the contract will be able to present pricing for categories B, C, and D. Since this is a phase two section of the contract, there is a question if Motorola can bid on these categories. Motorola is restricted to phase one sales only. Contract administrator will check with AAG about Motorola's involvement in this price solicitation. That conversation should occur at the end of the month due to the administrator's unavailability for the next two weeks. | |
| 07-02-2007 : | WA proposes to update microwave towers specifications due to changes in federal regulations. Both Valmont and Radian are changing manufacturing specs due to federal mandates. WA intends to put the federal regulations (Rev G) pricing along with the current (Rev F) regulations on the WSCA contract. Meetings with vendors and stakeholders were held for the last few months to insure that WA's needs and WSCA needs were met. Vendors were sent the specs weeks ago, but each requested more time to assign pricing. First deadline was July 3, 2007, but new extension will be July 9, 2007. Stakeholder group will have two weeks to review pricing and specs for approval. | |
| 07-02-2007 : | WA plans to take away two categories from EF Johnson and re-solicit new pricing for those low end radios (categories C & D). Sent radio specifications to Guy Cranor to check to see if the ones in the electronic file are those needed for soliciting new pricing from vendors within the contract. Guy did not think the specs sent were up to date. On June 18, 2007, WA sent those specs to Don Phfol in Oregon to review the specs for appropriateness and to see if they were up to date. No word, so another phone call and e-mail was sent today for an update. | |
| 06-20-2007 : | I've reviewed Keith's recommendation and Florida's petition to be added to the public safety contract 02707. Based on the information provided, I approved the action and signed the participating addendum. | |
| 06-15-2007 : | The State of Florida requests to renew its participation on the WSCA contract. Florida executes this agreement with Veretx Standard Corporation until October 31, 2008. Included with its participating addendum, Florida includes its terms and conditions for Vertex Standard purchases. Florida also lists several unique terms and conditions including a 1% administration fee to be paid by the vendor for Florida sales. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by Vertex Standard and Florida, and the document meets all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. Florida has determined that this contract action is cost-effective and is in the best interests of the State. There is little risk by renewing Florida's participation on the contract. Florida's purchases will add to the total spend on the contract and I recommend that Florida's renewal petition be accepted based on the document submitted. | |
| 06-12-2007 : | The purpose of the contract action is to add a vendor and its 900 MHz microwave radio products to WSCA Contract #02702, Public Safety Communication Equipment. Washington's State Contract #01801 was expiring in June 2007. GE MDS was the sole source vendor on the state contract. Washington customers petitioned to add new upgraded products on to the state contract #01801 and continue sales of the 900 MHz series of radios. Upon discussions with customer's and the vendor GE MDS, a proposal to add the vendor to the WSCA contract was pursued. WSCA was contacted; the contract was reviewed for additions according to contract terms and conditions. Nothing from WSCA or the contract stands in the way of adding GE MDS to the contract so that WA and other states may maintain their 900 MHz legacy systems. In order to ensure the continuation of legacy systems in Washington and other WSCA states, the contractor General Electric, Microwave Data Systems, Inc (GE MDS) offers existing and new products in the 900 MHz band to WSCA customers. Existing contractors under phase one and phase two were given the opportunity to provide 900 MHz band products and accessories, but none either offer the product category or chose not to pursue the opportunity for this category. The 900 band area is not being served by any WSCA contractor. Currently, GE MDS sells the proposed products in all 50 states under state and cooperative agreements. Under the provisions of the WSCA contract #02702, section III (13), the lead state may add under phase one, a new contractor, GE MDS, Inc. and its 900 MHz band products and accessories on to the contract. The product model(s) added to the contract will have greater price discounts than those listed on the Washington state contract #01801. All products offered to WSCA customers meet or exceed all of the bid specifications of original request for bid. The contractor, GE MDS has examined and agrees to accept all of the terms and conditions of the WSCA Request for Bid and amendments. The contractor addition will be effective once the lead state, Washington approves the contractor and its offer of products and services. With the help of customers in WA, I have evaluated that the 900 MHz products meet or exceed the customers requirements and specifications for 900 MHz radio communications. GE MDS offers price discounts appropriate for a multi-state contract for all of its products and services. GE MDS also agrees to negotiate additional price discounts upon verification of increased potential spend due to new states being added to the contract. Upon presentation to the Washington evaluation committee, GE MDS may offer additional products in the 900 MHz band area to be added to the contract if the offered products meet the scope, terms and conditions of the contract. Specifications may be added or adjusted on a case by case basis to meet the needs of the WSCA customers. GE MDS product offering meets the needs of WSCA customers and its addition to the contract is in the best interest of WSCA and Washington State. I recommend that the vendor and its 900 MHz products be added to the contract based on the documents provided. | |
| 06-05-2007 : | State of California requests to execute a participating addendum with JPS/Raytheon for the period of May 18, 2007 through October 29, 2008. Attached to their participating addendum is a Master Price Agreement under Phase One including an administrative fee of 1% for sales in California to be reported each quarter. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by JPS and California, and the document meets WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. This agreement is in the best interests of the customer and complies with all of the contract conditions. I recommend that California be added to the contract based on the documents submitted. | |
| 06-04-2007 : | As part of the vendor addition to WSCA, WA negotiated pricing with vendor, GE MDS. Vendor offered a 20% discount off list price and a 25% discount for sales over $500,000.00. Sent that proposed pricing to customers who purchase such products. After compiling feedback, WA proposed an increase discount of 25% for WSCA customers and a 30% discount for sales over $500,000.00. Vendor agreed and plans to implement that pricing structure into the contract. WA awaits vendors offer of services and pricing to be listed in the contract amendment for WA's approval. | |
| 05-11-2007 : | Washington plans to add vendor, GE MDS, Inc. to WSCA contract #02702 under phase one of the contract. Sent e-mail and phone call to proposed vendor, GE MDS, Inc. to obtain pricing for new products to be added to the contract. GE MDS has deadline of May 18, 2007 to respond with old prices, new prices and benefits for customers on WSCA. | |
| 04-23-2007 : | The Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife (DFW) contacted WA State Procurement for correct procedures for purchasing radios on the WSCA contract #02702. DFW proposes to purchase 160 ICOM radios for just over $200,000.00 from National Interop. I received an e-mail from ICOM that National Interop is an authorized distributor of ICOM radios. I also confirmed from DFW that ICOM radios were selected because they are compatible with the DFW's communication system. I also received an e-mail from Lt. John McIntosh of DFW that the proposed purchase of ICOM radios meet or exceed the P-25 requirement set by the SIEC Committee for radio purchases. ICOM has authorized this purchase after providing their best offer to DFW which was higher than National Interop's offer to sell the radios. This purchase meets all of the terms and conditions of purchases under the WSCA Contract #02702 phase one; the purchase presents the best overall value to Washington State through lower costs and better local services supporting the purchase. This is a qualified purchase under the authorized distributors provision, Section II (39) of RFP incorporated into the WSCA Contract. I recommend that this purchase be allowed since this volume purchase offers additional savings to DFW. | |
| 04-23-2007 : | Updated the list of participating states on the WSCA contract. The following are confirmed participating states: New Jersey Transit Corporation, Washington, Kansas, Califronia, Wisconsin, Alaska, Oregon, Colorado, Minnesota, Arizona, South Dakota, OKLAHOMA, Utah, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Arkansas, New Mexico, Wyoming and Mississippi.

Attached to their participating addendum is a scope of work, and New Jersey Transit's terms and conditions, optional items and technical services, phase one and two pricing lists from Harris. All of the addendum conditions are agreed upon by the vendor and New Jersey Transit, and the document meets all of WSCA's regulations for participating on the contract. There is little risk by adding New Jersey to the contract and I recommend that New Jersey Transit be added to the contract based on the documents submitted. | |
| 10-26-2006 : | Talked to Evelyn Peters, of Emergency Management System, Homeland Security about purchases of radio equipment using the WSCA contract.
