Description:
The City of Hartford is seeking a qualified vendor to supply, install, configure, and support a broad portfolio of computer hardware—including desktops, laptops, tablets (excluding Apple and Microsoft), servers, and associated peripherals—as well as related software licensing and technical services for both municipal offices and Hartford Public Schools. The contract is a one‑year base term with the option to extend up to three additional one‑year periods, and it requires the vendor to provide on‑site deployment, imaging, asset‑tagging, warranty support, and ongoing maintenance from a Connecticut‑based workforce. Vendors must demonstrate OEM certifications, provide detailed pricing, and meet MWBE utilization requirements. • Supply of business‑level and student‑level desktops, laptops, and all‑in‑one PCs. • Provision of rack‑mount 2U servers and direct‑attached storage solutions meeting specified technical minimums (64 GB RAM, redundant power, 3‑year on‑site warranty). • Delivery of related services: imaging, asset tagging, on‑site warranty support, software licensing (Microsoft, Google, Adobe, endpoint protection), and parts/peripherals. • Requirement to staff Connecticut‑based technicians, maintain manufacturer certifications, and fulfill a minimum 15 % MWBE subcontracting goal.

Budget Estimate (AI):

$200,000 – $1,000,000

No total contract ceiling is disclosed. Similar municipal IT procurement contracts for a portfolio of hardware and services typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars to low‑single‑digit millions, depending on quantity, brand mix, and service scope. Given the breadth (desktops, laptops, tablets, servers, licensing, deployment, and support) and the one‑year term with possible extensions, a reasonable ball‑park estimate is between $200,000 and $1,000,000 in annual revenue for the winning vendor. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of units purchased, the mix of high‑end versus standard configurations, and the level of ongoing support required.
