Memorandum
DATE:November 8, 2024
TO:Kristi Rowland, Deputy Chief Administrative Officer
CC:Young Yoon, Information Technology Director
FROM:Lacey Pires, Administrative Secretary
SUBJECT:Purchase of OptiSigns Digital Signage Pro Plan
This memo is in lieu of our standard contract template which allows for signatures by
both parties.
Attached for your review and approval is a TAG packet with OptiSigns, Inc. This packet
authorizes payment of the attached quote, in the amount of $1,250.80 ($1,134.00 plus
tax) for the purchase of OptiSigns Digital Signage Pro Plan.
OptiSigns is software used to display digital content on a Smart TV screen. This can
include text, images, and “apps” that integrate with other tools (ex. Power BI, weather
widgets, social media feeds, etc.). Some of these integrations do create connections
with our network, and so they will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the IT
Network Systems team before being authorized for use.
The city already has four screens using this software in the Mayor’s Office to show
executives’ calendars, and IT is doing a small project to make this our new preferred
standard for digital displays to increase staff awareness of workload, events, etc.
Attached are the following documents:
