The specification details include one (1) 384TB PURE Storage Flash Array (model FA-C70R4-ETH-384TB-16x24TB FA-C70R4-384TB), which will support the department's disaster recovery strategy at an offsite location. The procurement includes installation services (PS-FLASHARRAY-INSTALL), 12 months of Evergreen Forever Support with 24/7, 4-hour delivery, and two additional one-year support renewals.

Bidders must submit a complete cost breakdown that encompasses the entire three-year support and implementation period. The specification emphasizes the need for a full, transparent pricing model that covers the initial procurement and subsequent support renewals, ensuring the Police Department has a clear understanding of the total cost of ownership for this critical storage infrastructure investment.
