The document is a summary of the evaluation and recommendation for a cellular phone service provider for the Douglas County School District. The district issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to select a sole provider for cellular phone and direct connect service. The RFP was sent to five cellular phone providers, and proposals were received from AT&T, Nextel, Verizon, and Sprint PCS. A committee was formed to evaluate the RFPs and interview the prospective vendors. A separate test group of employees tested sample phones provided by the vendors and evaluated coverage and functionality. The test results were compiled, and Verizon was unanimously selected by the committee to be recommended to the cabinet. The document also includes a price comparison of phones for a 500-minute monthly plan with unlimited direct connect minutes. The RFP evaluation committee consisted of members from various departments, and the cellular phone test group consisted of employees from different areas. The document includes coverage maps of all vendors, highlighting areas where cellular phone coverage was lacking.
