FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached agreement (Exhibit 1)
with iWater, Inc., subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City
Attorney, to provide digital water mapping services in an amount not to exceed $150,000.
DISCUSSION
Digital water mapping has become an integral part of the Water Resources Division operations.
This system enables City maintenance crews and Water Engineering staff to respond quickly to
emergencies; collect, store, and retrieve data; and facilitate routine maintenance on water
infrastructure assets in a paperless environment. Through this system, information becomes
immediately available during field maintenance activities. In addition, all users of the system are
able to view water data via the Public Works Agency Geographic Information System. This data
sharing facilitates records research by other City agencies.
On June 1, 2009, City Council awarded a contract to iWater, Inc., for digital water mapping
services, computer hardware configuration and installation, professional on-call services, and
system service support. This agreement expands upon the scope of work to include Global
Positioning System (GPS) data collection and processing, computerized maintenance
management system (CMMS) integration, professional on-call services, and system service
maintenance and support.
These enhancements will improve and integrate the CMMS, enhancing the overall quality and
accuracy of the digital water map. Additionally, the Water Resources Division will have improved
access for their information needs under normal and emergency working conditions.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
