Title
Issue purchase order and enter into an agreement with Origami Risk L.L.C. to provide software hosting and hardware maintenance for the Origami Risk Management Information System, in an amount not to exceed $223,200.00, Account 101-27000-612820, Requisition 1505681
Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with Origami Risk L.L.C. to provide software hosting and hardware maintenance for the Origami Risk Management Information System for a three-year period. This purchase order will expire on December 31, 2021.
Origami provides the District with a secure and reliable cloud-based RMIS that facilitates the consolidation, analysis, tracking, and reporting on claims and risk related data across the District. System updates and enhancements are included.
Origami Risk L.L.C., the sole service provider of the Origami Risk Management Information System, has submitted prices for the services required. Inasmuch as Origami Risk L.L.C. is the only source of supply for the services required, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
Origami Risk L.L.C. is registered and in good standing with the State of Illinois.
The Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) is not applicable because the classification of work does not fall within the provisions of the MPLA.
In view of the foregoing it is recommended that the Director of Procurement and Materials Management be authorized to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement with Origami Risk L.L.C. in an amount not to exceed $223,200.00.
The estimated expenditures for 2019, 2020 and 2021 are $74,400.00, $74,400.00 and $74,400.00 respectively. Funds for 2019, 2020, and 2021 expenditures are contingent on the Board of Commissioners' approval of the District's budget for those years.
Requested, Beverly K. Sanders, Director of Human Resources, BKS:RAJ
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for December 6, 2018
