Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, Councilmembers and Staff,
I am still requesting that this ITEM 5 be PULLED.
I was asked where I got $4.4M for the ERP when the Staff Report is asking for approval for
$3,744,526 ($3.7M). Here is my math:
$3,744,526 for ERP system (high-end Tier 2)
+ $ 667,058 annual on-going costs
= $4,411,584 TOTAL
From the Staff Report it is not clear if the on-going costs of $667,058 is for a subscription or
employee support or what. It is also not clear if approving this ERP means also approving an
annual budget item for the on-going costs.
Q1: What does the $667,058 annual costs cover?
Q2: What does it cost currently for our ERP system annually?
Q3: Why was the $667,058 on-going costs not included as part of this approval?
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
