TRANSMITTAL LETTER FOR BOARD MEETING OF DECEMBER 3, 2020
COMMITTEE ON PROCUREMENT
Mr. Brian A. Perkovich, Executive Director
Title
Report on rejection of proposals for Contract 19-RFP-34, GASB 87 Accounting Software for a Three-Year Period, estimated cost $85,000.00 (As Revised)
Body
Dear Sir:
On November 7, 2019, the report on advertisement for the request for proposal Contract 19-RFP-34, GASB 87 Accounting Software for a Three-Year Period, was sent to the Board of Commissioners.
On December 4, 2019, the request for proposal was advertised and responses were received on January 10, 2020.
The tabulation of proposers are as follows:
BKD, LLP
CROWE LLP
IGM TECHNOLOGY
VERTOSOFT
The Finance Department recommends that all proposals be rejected to revise the scope of work to clarify the integration concerns. Also, the software being requested to handle GASB 87 has only been on the market for a short period of time. By waiting, the District will be able to obtain a fully developed and tested software. The Director of Procurement and Materials Management concurs. Therefore, all proposals submitted under this RFP are rejected in the public’s best interest. The Director of Procurement and Materials Management has informed all proposers of this action.
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:cm
