Title: Award of a Contract Recommendation:
I recommend that the School Board approve the Award of a Contract with Computerized Facility Integration (CFI), L.L.C. to implement the District’s Tririga 9 Computer-Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) System. The cost of the Phase 1a of services is capped at $213,000.
Description:
· Negotiations resulted in the attached Agreement to complete in two phases the implementation of the Tririga 9 suite of applications the District purchased in June 2006.
· Phase 1a, Requirements, of the CFI contract plans the implementation of all elements of the software at an intermediate level. Phase 1b, Operations & Maintenance & Mobility Implementation, rolls out the Facilities Management Division’s top-priority application serving chiefly the M&PO Department and schools.
· Phase 1a also produces a CFI cost proposal for the Phases 1b and 2 implementations. Phase 2 rolls out other modules of the Tririga 9 suite purchased by the District to include: Projects, Real Estate, and Facilities Management.
· The agreement with CFI requires Phase 1a to be completed in 75 days, Phase 1b by 3QFY08, and Phase 2 by 2QFY09.
· The CFI contract includes a stipulation to employ minority firms as sub-consultants in any of the following roles: data migration, process modeling, change management and training.
· For due diligence purposes, staff conducted interviews with the following CFI clients: Fairfax County, VA; Dow Chemical; General Motors, and the California State Judiciary System. All references were positive.
Financial Impact:
The financial impact to the Capital Budget at this point is $213,000. We will return to the Board in July 2007 to present the cost of completing the full CAFM rollout. This part of the CAFM System implementation is fully funded by the Capital Budget of the Facilities Management Division.
