Summary

Staff told the board the county needs a $156,080 change order to extend TUSA Consulting through March 31, 2026 to complete radio system testing; Motorola Solutions agreed to provide $167,000 in credits to offset costs.

Paulding County staff told the Board of Commissioners on Oct. 28 that a change order is needed to extend TUSA Consulting services while the county finishes testing of its radio system. Bofford, a county staff member presenting the item, said project delays beyond the county’s control required additional consultant time and county staff participation in resumed testing.

Bofford said TUSA submitted a worst‑case estimate for a $156,080 change order to extend services through March 31, 2026. He added Motorola Solutions has agreed to reimburse the county in the form of credits totaling $167,000 that county staff expect will cover the change order. “We finished up the testing a lot sooner than we anticipated,” Bofford said.

Bofford said the county negotiated the reimbursement with Motorola and that he expects an update on system progress at the Nov. 11 meeting. The item was presented for board consideration; no final board action is recorded in the public portion of the transcript.
