City of Baltimore extends network support contract with TCS

The City of Baltimore has exercised a one-year contract extension worth approximately $6m for city-wide network and systems support with TeleCommunication Systems, a provider of wireless communications and IT professional services.

The contract, signed in 2005, included three base years with the option to exercise two one-year extensions.

Specific TeleCommunication Systems (TCS) services under the contract include: design, installation and management of wide area networks and local area networks; enterprise server services that include anti-virus and content filters; BlackBerry support; patch support; technical helpdesk support including network hardware and software maintenance; desktop hardware/software installation and integration; application development; systems integration; Java/Oracle and legacy database development and maintenance; and citywide closed-circuit television services.

Michael Bristol, senior vice president of TCS's government solutions group, said: The City of Baltimore is widely recognized as a leader in the use of information technology to efficiently manage municipal services. We are committed to providing 24x7 support of the city's technology requirements no matter how small or big the task. We have worked with the city for more than a decade, and look forward to continuing this relationship for many years to come.
