Body
DATE: May 19, 2026
TO: Kent Cagle, City Manager
FROM: Willie Resto, Executive Director of Information Technology
SUBJECT: 3-Year Cisco Enterprise Agreement
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
Over the past three years, the city has utilized the Cisco Enterprise Agreement (EA) to support its network Firewalls, cybersecurity, and communication systems. This agreement has provided enterprise-wide access to critical Cisco technologies, enabling reliable operations, enhanced security, and streamlined management of software licensing and support.
The current agreement is approaching expiration, and the City is requesting approval to renew a 3-year Cisco Multi-Architecture Enterprise Agreement to ensure continuity of services, maintain system performance, and continue benefiting from consolidated licensing, cost predictability, and scalability across departments.
The Enterprise Agreement consolidates multiple Cisco agreements-such as software subscriptions, support services, and licensing (including Flex plans and other standalone contracts)-into a single, streamlined contract. This approach simplifies procurement and management, improves cost predictability, and provides the city with greater flexibility to scale services as operational needs evolve.
By entering into this three-year agreement, the City benefits from standardized pricing, enterprise-wide access to Cisco tools and upgrades, and the ability to deploy and expand solutions without renegotiating individual contracts. This results in administrative efficiency, cost savings over time, and ensures the city remains aligned with current technology and security standards.
