• Modify the 2024 Annual Hardware and Software Maintenance and Support list - (Page 3)
The BOC approval is requested to modify the Annual Hardware and Software Maintenance List (AML) approved as part of the FY2024 Adopted Budget. The requested changes will be funded within the department’s existing budget and will not result in any budget adjustments.
The Sheriff requests to increase spending authority with the vendor 4F Applied Technologies (NoteActive) for $132,000 for FY2024 AML item #418. The change is due to a contractual increase. The item is paid out of the Inmate Services unit in Non-Agency. No additional funding is requested for the change.
Information Technology requests to add an item onto the FY2024 AML and increase spending authority with vendor Presidio for $438,580. The contract was approved by the BOC (Item # 23-0469) in 2023 but was not included on the FY2024 AML. No additional funding is requested as the item is already funded in the department's budget.
Public Works requests to increase spending authority with vendor Power Engineers for $150,000 for FY2024 AML item #260. The change is for increased technical support for the CityWorks Asset Management System and Permit License and Land systems. No additional funding is requested for the change.
