INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />Information Technologies Department <br />227 W Jefferson Blvd (574) 245-6000 <br />TO: Board of Public Works, Linda Martin <br />CC: Dan O'Connor, Michael Schmidt, George King, John Murphy, <br />Michael Sniadecki <br />FROM: James Schrader <br />SUBJECT: Logic Monitoring System hosted by NSI <br />DATE: 9/1/16 <br />Linda, John, George and Michael, <br />Please see the attached quote to purchase a hosted network monitoring system <br />for three years. The Office of Innovation and Technology team has reviewed the <br />quote and give favorable recommendation as well. Network Solutions, Inc. has <br />offered the most competitive bid for this network monitoring solution at $89.76 <br />per device. We are looking to monitor 150 devices (firewalls, switches, routers, <br />servers plus other critical devices) for a total of $13,464 annually for three (3) <br />years. We were able to test this solution during a free trail with success. <br />Logic Monitor is a cloud -based, efficient monitoring platform that will allow us to <br />swiftly and cost-effectively track the performance health of our IT infrastructure, <br />enabling us to do mitigating actions before issues or concerns become full-blown <br />operational catastrophes. This will give us a snapshot of our infrastructure's <br />overall performance, in-depth reporting, alerts customization, as well as other <br />services that will keep our infrastructure team one step ahead of problems. <br />Thank you <br />James Schrader <br />
