Riverside <br /> (former Munitemps) <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> On March 3 2008, the City Council approved a financial software <br /> implementation project. Subsequently, On May 5, 2008, the City Council <br /> awarded contracts to four agencies to provide backfill staffing to <br /> complete on-going duties while staff devoted time to design, set-up and <br /> test the software. <br /> The core financial software modules of accounting and purchasing went live <br /> on September 1, 2009. The back-fill staff has been reduced as City <br /> employees assume their regular duties. However, some assistance is still <br /> required during the post go-live "settle down" phase, and for <br /> implementation of the Lawson yearend processing component. <br /> The vendors have performed satisfactorily during the past contract period <br /> and have agreed to renew their contracts without an increase in pricing. <br /> Due to company mergers, the four original vendors are now three companies. <br /> Staff recommends the first renewal of the contract. <br /> 22D-1 <br /> <br />
