DISCUSSION:
On June 16, 2015, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C C-27349), authorized contracts with Brio
Services, LLC (Brio) and Total Resource Management, Inc. (TRM) to support the Water and Wastewater
Asset Management Program through the enterprise-wide implementation of Maximo. Maximo was initially
deployed within the Field Operations Division in 2005, as a part of the implementation of the Water
Information Technology Program, authorized by the City Council in August 2003. Since that time, Field
Operations has used Maximo to plan, schedule and assign work, manage warehouse stock and issue
parts. At that time, Maximo was also integrated with the City's Fire Records Management System
(Firehouse) and the Department' s PeopleSoft Customer Relationship Management System (CRM), both
of which generate work orders for Field Operations.
The agreements authorized by M&C C-27349 allowed for the expansion of the Maximo system to water
and wastewater plant operations, as well as meter services and a re-implementation of the upgraded
Logname: 60MAXIMO AMEND I Page I of 4
system in Field Operations. The systems and services provided support of the Water Department's overall
asset management program, implemented the recommendations from the Water Information Technology
Master Plan (2010), and responded to the recommendations derived from the Public-Private Partnership
process (2013).
Amendment No. 1 to the Brio Services, LLC and Total Resource Management, Inc. agreements will
provide the following additional services to allow the Water Department to take advantage of new
opportunities to further improve functionality, transparency and efficiency:
• Configure integrated materials requisition tools to improve business process for warehouse materials
management and specialized services;
• Coordinate with the MyH20 Project to automate and streamline associated processes;
• Develop functional specifications and manage development of Maximo to the PeopleSoft financial
system for procurement activities, SCADA historians to enable automatic creation of certain work orders,
and Accela to improve the customer experience and improve transparency for developer projects;
• Provide necessary updates to the PeopleSoft CRM, Customer Information System, and Firehouse to
accommodate new integration points;
• Configure and enhance asset life cycle management and maintenance practices;
• Extend the TRM hosting of Maximo for 24 months, which includes system performance and optimization
services, system architecture services and upgrade specific analysis, diagnostic and testing services;
• Rebuild the training and development environments to accommodate GeoWorx special services and
database sync capabilities; and
•Add associated software and integration services for GeoWorx
CONTRACT TERMS -The upgrade will begin immediately upon execution of the contracts and is
anticipated to be complete within 24 months. The contracts may be renewed upon mutual, written consent
of the parties for up to three additional one-year periods for ongoing consulting or hosting services without
additional City Council authorization as long as funds have been appropriated.
This project is anticipated to be included in a future revenue bond issue for the Water and Sewer Fund.
Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City' s portfolio along with the appropriation
authority authorized under the Callable Commercial Paper Program (CP) will be used to provide interim
financing for this project until debt is issued. To the extent resources other than the Water and Sewer
portfolio are used to provide interim financing, the Water and Sewer Fund will be charged interest that is
equivalent to the overall rate of return being earned by the City portfolio (currently approximately one-
percent annually). Should the City' s portfolio not support the liquidity needed to provide an interim short-
term financing source, another funding source will be required, which could mean issuance of securities
under the CP Program or earlier issuance of Water and Sewer revenue bonds than is currently planned.
Once debt associated with this project is sold, bond proceeds will be used to reimburse the Water and
Sewer portfolio and the City' s portfolio in accordance with the attached Reimbursement Resolution.
The City Council adopted the Water Department's Fiscal Year 2018-2022 Five Year Capital Improvement
Plan on December 12, 2017, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C G-19187). This City Council
adopted plan includes this specific project, with funding identified through the CP program to be
reimbursed with future revenue bonds. In accordance with the provisions of the Financial Management
Policy Statement, Staff anticipates presenting revenue-supported debt issuances to the City Council for
consideration within the next three years. This debt must be issued within approximately three years to
provide reimbursement for these expenses. If that does not occur, the costs will no longer be reimbursable
by issuing tax-exempt debt and the funding source will have to be made whole through budgetary
methods. Adoption of this resolution does not obligate the City to sell bonds, but preserves the ability to
reimburse the City from tax-exempt bond proceeds.
M/WBE OFFICE -A waiver of the goals for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the
Water Department and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because
the MWBE Waiver is solicited based on the sole source information provided to the MWBE Office by the
Logname: 60MAXIMO AMEND I Page 2 of 4
managing department's project manager.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department' s operating budget and this project serves ALL
COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
