St. NW Suite 308 PO Box 37 Ephrata, WA 98823 509.766.3190 - Phone V September 13, 2023 \W--,3� V� For Board of County Commissioner approval, Technology Services has been evaluating the effectiveness of AT&T FirstNet Public Safety Cellular network over the past few months in response to the shooting that occurred at the Gorge Amphitheater in late June of this year. It was brought to our attention that Grant County Sheriff's Deputies were unable to make calls during the incident using our current cellular provider. This was a clear sign it was no longer meeting our expectations. Through extensive demo testing, we discovered that AT&T FirstNet is a far superior technology than our current service provides. We evaluated AT&T billing practices as far as our interaction with their websites and customer service and found those experiences were better as well. We are also able to port all our numbers. After meeting with our AT&T representative we were presented with costs for FirstNet that were also better than our current service. Initial estimates show that we will be saving roughly $1,300/month. or $15,600/year. Attached is the participation agreement that will allow us to utilize Sourcewell Contract Number 080119 -ATT. It also includes details for FirstNet plan pricing, custom equipment pricing, and reoccurring credits. It is my recommendation that Board of County Commissioners approve the request to transition from our current service provider to AT&T FirstNet.
