Title: P2 Agreement with Time Link International Corporation

Recommendation:
I recommend the School Board approve the Master Agreement with Time Link International Corporation for Time Clocks and related software and services and authorize the Board Chairman and Superintendent to execute all related documents.

Description:

The recommendation is being made to enhance the District's payroll process through the use of biometric identification technology and automate the time keeping elements by employee which will save time from the manual process used today.

Staff will be able to punch into work through the swipe of a finger which will electronically record the time worked and interface directly into the new PeopleSoft time and labor module eliminating the need to manually input this information.

TimeLink is a PeopleSoft Alliance Partner that has undergone the rigorous testing required for certified integration to PeopleSoft to ensure data integrity.

Union leaders have been and will continue to be engaged in the discussions surrounding procedures that will be used.

Financial Impact:
The financial impact to the District is estimated at $1,000,000 for hardware, software and professional services.  In addition, there will be payments of approximately $80,000 per year for on-going maintenance after the expiration of the warranty period.  The source of funds is the capital budget.
