HEARING:
SUBJECT. (ALL) Authorize Annual Licensing, Maintenance and Operating Agreements with Multiple
Vendors for the Continued Operations of Systems Supporting the MyH2O Advanced

$2,633,564.73
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council authorize annual licensing, maintenance and operating agreements with multiple vendors for the continued operations of systems supporting the
MyH2O Advanced Metering Infrastructure program for a total Fiscal Year 2022 operating cost of $2,633,564.73 with annual fee increase allowances as defined.
DISCUSSION:
On May 17, 2016, the City Council approved Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) C-27726, authorizing a contract with Thirkettle dba Aqua -Metric Sales Company, the System
Integrator for the MyH2O Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) program (CSC No. 48301). Both the M&C and contract scope stated the requirement for "Additional Managed
Services for Regional Network Interface (data center), customer web portal, annual agreements for base station support, customer portal support, antenna leases, and Federal
Communication Commission agreement for radio frequency use". Those services were procured by the System Integrator, which executed agreements for the technology required for
AMI during the project implementation and subsequently assigned to the City of Fort Worth in compliance with the program requirements.
The contract with Aqua -Metric Sales Company was subsequently amended by M&C C-28695 and M&C 21-0466, which authorized the remainder of the program funding. Although the
M&Cs authorized the procurement and assignment of the technology agreements, they did not expressly authorize the required annual licensing, maintenance, and support associated
with these agreements. Funding for the various agreements was included in the adopted Fiscal Year (FY) 2021-2022 operating budget of the Water and Sewer Fund.
Approval of this M&C will formally authorize the annual operating expenditures for agreements with the following providers as part of the on -going MyH2O program:
