Agenda Item
b. AT&T Cellular Services Renewal from AT&T Mobility (Not to exceed $774,000) ~ Updated 10.7.2024
Summary: Presented by: Ms. Monika T. Davis, Chief Information Officer, Division of Information and Instructional Technology
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education approve the purchase of cellular services from AT&T Mobility, Inc, for an amount not to exceed $774,000.
Why: The purpose of the agenda item is to provide users with our current cellular service with AT&T.
Details: DeKalb County Schools provides cell phones to employees whose job role and function meet the requirements of an emergency responder/first responder to critical services. Cell phone distribution is determined by an employee's specific need to stay connected to the daily operations of the school district’s business and community.
Currently, the following devices use cellular services:
960 - Smartphones (Expandable to 1500 phones and accessories within budget)
25 - Hotspots
Telecommunications continues to employ strategies to manage and reduce the monthly bill through monitoring all devices for inactivity and removing the devices from the district's bill. The district has chosen AT&T for the following reasons:
• AT&T is providing updated iPhone hardware
• AT&T has deemed DeKalb County School District to be classified as a First Responder district and has our phones on the High Priority FirstNet System. This gives cellular traffic by DCSD, County, State and Federal First Responder's priority in case of an emergency.
• Recently completed cellular phone migration January 2024-March 2024
• To maintain Business Continuity, DIIT wishes to utilize current AT&T GTA Contract 9800-GTA794-A
