(Simpler). The City is currently in the process of procuring a new Enterprise Resource Planning(ERP)system,which in part will replace the Infor Lawson Financial&Procurement System (Lawson)that the City has been using since 2009.When implementing a new ERP, standard practice is to convert a minimum level of financial details, balances,&documents from the old system.Accordingly,there is a need to archive the Lawson data to allow access to historical& unconverted data, as well as a need for data transparency and analysis during the conversion process.Additionally,the City is interested in a reporting platform that could be used throughout the City, simplifying access to data for many staff members.The Pilot will introduce the City's core team to Simpler datapps&will demonstrate how Simpler can be effectively used for archiving&operational analysis/reporting. Scope Licensing Simpler will provide the Simpler Platform to the City and will authorize the City to use the Simpler Platform for the duration of the Pilot free of licensing fees. At the completion of the Pilot, should the City decide to continue using the Simpler Platform, licensing will commence per the proposal submitted by Simpler to the City in February 2025. Should the City decide to discontinue use of the Simpler Platform,the Simpler Platform will be removed. Dat_ apes Cardon, using data from Lawson,proposes to deliver the following datapps: • General Ledger: o Journals: Provides detailed general ledger transactions o Revenue/Expenditure Summary: Provides summary-level budget&actual balances with drill- down to journals o General Ledger Balances: Provides summary-level balances for the trial balance/balance sheet with drill-down to journals. • Procure-to-Pay: o Purchase Order Balances: Provides various amounts for POs, e.g.Ordered Amount, Liquidated Amount, Balance (Open)Amount,etc. o Vendor Invoices: Provides details for vendor invoices • Tables: Datapps that provide data to support the main datapps, e.g., chart of accounts&vendors Page 1 Services The following services will be provided during the Pilot. Planning At the start of the Pilot,we will meet with the City to prioritize the scope, review the services to be delivered, discuss resources needed from the City, & prepare an estimated timeline. Environment Set-up Cardon will work with the City&the Simpler Systems technical team to determine the best approach for the application architecture. Cardon will: • Install the Simpler Systems code base • Create the application folder structure • Create the appropriate schemas in the database (provided by the City) which will host the extracted source system data • Set up the Internet Information Services(I IS) web instance. Analysis, Development, & Testing For each datapp, Cardon will: • Identify the tables&data that need to be extracted from Lawson • Extract the data • Generate the initial datapps • Conduct preliminary testing City Review& Testing After Cardon completes our preliminary testing, we will review each datapp with the City highlighting all features&functions.The City team will conduct their own testing& provide feedback to Cardon. Cardon will make necessary changes, &the process will repeat until each datapp is approved. Training Informal training will be conducted with the core team as each datapp is delivered. In addition, Cardon will provide a training guide using the City's datapps,that covers basic navigation&key features such as grouping, aggregating,filtering, &shortcuts. Page 2 Pricing Fees Services will be billed at a rate of$165/hour and will be invoiced monthly. Hours billed for the proposed Scope &Services will not exceed 150,for a maximum total cost of$24,750. in the event the delivery of the proposed Scope& Services requires fewer than 150 hours,the City may request additional services from Cardon.
