DISCUSSION: This Mayor and Council Communication is to authorize a nine-month professional services agreement with [s] Cube Inc., for Accela consolidation of Community Facilities Agreement (CFA), Infrastructure Plan Review Center (IPRC) and Construction processes. These processes comprise the project life cycle for application submission, reviews, approvals, inspections and final closeout of construction and related activities pertaining to infrastructure, residential and commercial new construction, additions and remodels. The independent yet inter-related processes follow complex, but mostly manual workflows that have recognized inefficiencies due to many factors, not the least of which is the lack of a consolidated tool set and data store for data input, retrieval and reporting across all groups. City leaders launched the Infrastructure Delivery Process Improvement project to identify areas of needed improvements related to contracting for and acceptance of developer-led infrastructure construction. The goal was to reduce lead times, redundancy and variation, eliminate bottlenecks, improve communication and expedite processing activities. Implementation of these revised processes has begun and includes a goal of consolidating the systems supporting these processes into a single data store to standardize across all touch points. This phase of the Infrastructure Delivery Process Improvement project addresses the need to identify a common toolset to house CFA, IPRC and Construction activities to improve workflows using Accela. M/WBE OFFICE -A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Department and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. The project will commence upon Council approval of this M&C, final execution of the Professional Services Agreement and creation of the purchase order to [s] Cube Inc. It is anticipated that the project will complete within six months and include a 90-day warranty program that will extend vendor support beyond project completion. e - mgq, CERTIFICATE OF INTERESTED PARTIES FORM 1295 l of l Complete Nos.l-4 and 6 it there are interested parties.
