The purpose of this report is to request authority to amend Contract No. 47016848 awarded to Motorola Solutions Canada Inc., as a result of the Request for Proposal (RFP) 2105-11-3007, for the provision of a common radio platform, Toronto Radio Infrastructure Project (TRIP) as well as 15-years of lifecycle support extending to 2029, for the City of Toronto's Fire Services, Paramedic Services, and Police Service.  This report requests an amendment to increase the contract value by $6,907,913 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($7,029,492 net of HST recoveries), increasing the total Contract value from $63,584,616 to $70,492,529 net of all applicable taxes and charges.

The amendment is required to address the City's three emergency services' need for additional investment in TRIP related requirements focussed on enhanced resiliency, regulatory compliance, and improved security measures that were not available during implementation.
