recommendation
I move that the Mayor and City Council authorize the City Administrator to enter into a contract for services with BC Computers Inc. (dba BC Systems) for the provision of an Enterprise Resource Planning system for a term of five (5) consecutive years and grant the authority to the City Administrator to execute three (3) additional consecutive one (1) year terms, not to exceed a term of eight (8) years, upon review for legal sufficiency by the City Attorney.

Summary Background:
The City has solicited the market for an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform, has identified systems that provide functionality and operational modules that align with City of Hyattsville operations and are recommending the selection and authorization to proceed with a contract for services with the recommended vendor BC Systems.
The City procured the services of Enterprise Resource Consulting, a vendor with experience vetting Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platforms. Through an extensive internal assessment of operational requirements and services, Enterprise Resource Consulting identified firms that matched the City's requirements and issued a Request for Qualifications in October 2018.
The solicitation stated that the overarching goal of the procurement was to replace most of the current technology with Enterprise Resource Planning software, with the likelihood of utilizing some standalone software for the functions which the ERP does not address.
Next Steps:
This item is scheduled for approval on the April 20th Consent agenda.
Fiscal Impact:
Annual licensing costs will be funded at $60,000 based on the estimated number of required user licenses to support the organization.
