Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to enter into a Not-for-Profit Service Contract with United Way of Central Ohio for the continued use of E-CImpact software, in an amount up to $13,300.00, to authorize payment of expenses incurred as of October 1, 2022. This ordinance will also appropriate funding for this contract.
E-CImpact is software to enable safe and secure intake of applications, facilitate work from any location, and provide prompts to applicants to assure that a complete application is submitted. The United Way of Central Ohio holds the contract with the vendor, but the contract is funded by the City and other governmental agencies in the region so that local, non-profit agencies do not have this expense. This software is used by governmental entities to advertise Notice of Financial Awards, track performance data, prepare reports, and as a communication tool. City staff do not have the resources to perform the services provided by the software
The central Ohio non-profit/government community started using E-CImpact in 2021. The Director of Development executed PO300969 in November 2021 in the amount of $11,100.00 to fund access to the software by the non-profit community. After a year of use, the Department of Development would like to continue funding access to this software.
By way of this ordinance, the Director of the Department of Development also requests authority to make payment of expenses incurred as of October 1, 2022.
Contract compliance number is 003101 and expires 3/13/2023.
Emergency action is requested in order to permit continued access of this software without interruption.
Fiscal Impact: This ordinance authorizes an expenditure of $13,300.00 within the Neighborhood Economic Development Funds (fund 2237).
