Integration increasing the annual contract amount by $36,246.00 for a revised annual amount not to

DISCUSSION:
On August 09, 2022, the City executed City Secretary Contract (CSC) No. 57960 with Voice Products,
Inc. using Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) Cooperative Contract No. DIR-CPO-
5060 for Information Technology Broadcasting and Telecommunication for the Information Technology
Solutions (ITS) Department in an annual amount not to exceed $100,000.00.
The ITS Department uses Cooperative Contract No. DIR-CPO-5060 to provide workforce
management and scheduling software. NICE Workforce Management is the primary software from this
vendor that is used by the City 311 Call Center to manage staff scheduling and service quality. The
current version of NICE Workforce Management is not supported on Windows 11and must be
upgraded. This upgrade will move to the cloud -hosted software version which is supported on
Windows 11 and will bring new features such as Al assistance and call routing.
Professional services for the NICE upgrade are expected to cost of $88,630.00 which will increase the
total annual contract value to $136,246.00. Annual NICE Workforce Management subscription costs
will remain at $47,616.00 and are subject to price increases per DIR-CPO-5060 terms and conditions.
Approval of this Mayor and Council Communication will allow additional purchase authority for the
purchase of the upgrade professional services and NICE software licensing using the DIR Contract
No. DIR-CPO-5060.
Funding is budgeted in the ITS Capital Fund for the ITS Department for the purpose of funding the
FY24 CPE Migrate NICE WFM project, as appropriated.
COOPERATIVE PURCHASE: State law provides that a local government purchasing an item under a
cooperative purchase agreement satisfies State laws requiring that the local government seek
competitive bids for purchase of the item. Cooperative contracts have been competitively bid to
increase and simplify the purchasing power of local government entities across the State of Texas.

authorized by this M&C. In the event a DIR cooperative contract is not renewed, staff would cease

purchasing at the end of the last purchase agreement coinciding with a valid cooperative contract. If
the City Council were to not appropriate funds for a future year, staff would stop making purchases
when the last appropriation expires, regardless of whether the then -current purchase agreement has
expired.
In the event an DIR cooperative agreement is not extended, but DIR executes a new cooperative
agreement with substantially similar terms, this M&C authorizes the City to purchase the goods and
services under the new DIR contract. If this occurs, in no event will the City continue to purchase
goods and services under the new agreement for more than four (4) years without seeking Council
approval.
BUSINESS EQUITY: A Business Equity goal is not assigned when purchasing from an approved
purchasing cooperative or public entity.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by
the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does
not require specific City Council approval if sufficient funds have been appropriated.
AGREEMENT TERM: Upon City Council's approval and execution of amendment no. 1 to CSC
57960, the initial term of the agreement will expire in accordance with the terms and conditions of DIR-
CPO-5060 or applicable successive cooperative agreement for the same products and services.
RENEWAL OPTIONS: The agreements may be renewed in accordance with the underlying
cooperative agreement, at the City's option. This action does not require specific City Council
approval provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's
obligations during the renewal period.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital budget, as previously
appropriated, in the ITS Capital Fund for the FY24 CPE Migrate NICE WFM project to support the
approval of the above recommendation and execution of the amendment. Prior to any expenditure
being incurred, the Information Technology Solutions Department has the responsibility to validate
the availability of funds.
