Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Department of Public Utilities has been working for over three years to consolidate the licensing and maintenance of Autodesk products. The software is used for mapping and the creation/updating of shop drawings and architectural plans. The intention of placing all the software on one contract is to streamline the future procurement and licensing process and ensure that all employees have the tools they need to do their work in the most efficient manner. Because the software program is proprietary to the vendor, the Division of Power and Water would like to enter into a sole source contract with DLT Solutions, Inc., the sole distributor in this area, in the amount of $32,886.51. CC# 54-1599882. They do not have certified MBE/FBE status.

It is requested that this Ordinance be handled in an emergency manner, as the division would like to take advantage of a promotional price that has been provided by DLT Solutions, Inc.

FISCAL IMPACT: The Division of Water has not budgeted any funds for this project. Object Level One "03" expenditures will be reprioritized in order to cover the deficit. There have been no expenditures for this type of project in the last two years.
