On October 27, 2009, (M&C C-23876)the City Council authorized the execution of Professional

four named vendors. Staff is requesting ratification of recent paid invoices totaling$173,569.00 as well

service disruption on large complex projects. The total amount for projected services through October
2010 is$560,832.00. IT Solutions will return to City Council in October to request funding authorization

M&C Review
The purpose of these service agreements is to allow the City to have agreements in place for staff
augmentation to assist in the development and implementation of technology projects and services in
the City such as ERP, IT Outsourcing, email archival, laptop encryption,disaster recovery, radio
towers, radio re-banding, FMS finance policy and Buyspeed Online projects. Hiring contract labor has
provided staff augmentation to address significant attrition with costs partially offset by salary and
benefit savings.
M/WBE-Digital Intelligence Systems Corporation, Hudson Global Resources Management, Inc.,
Matrix Resources, Inc., and Sentad Technologies, Inc.,a certified M/WBE firm, have all previously and
continue to commit to comply with their 10 percent M/WBE participation on all expenditures through the
end of the contract period.
The Information Technology(IT)Sourcing Initiative will have no impact on this project.
ADMINISTRATIVE INCREASE—An administrative change order or increase may be made for each
agreement by the City Manager for an amount up to$50,000.00 and does not require specific City
Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.

The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating
budgets, as appropriated, of the General Fund and Information Systems Fund and in the current capital
budgets,as appropriated,of Information Systems Capital Project Fund and the Information Systems
