DEPARTMENT:  Information Technology

 

ORIGINATOR:  Dee White

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approve-Ken Klein 12/13/21

 

PURPOSE: The purpose of this ECAF is to approve and execute the contract to provide Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) Software.

 

BACKGROUND: The County’s Finance Department requires updated software in order to produce the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) that is compliant with governmental standards.  The County published RFP-026-21SB to solicit proposals for new ACFR software and Vertosoft, LLC’s Workiva platform was selected in a partial award by the Snohomish County evaluation committee as submitting the highest-ranking proposal to provide this new ACFR software.    The cost for the services, including initial implementation of the system, is expected to be Two Hundred Eleven Thousand Fifty-one Dollars ($211,051.00) plus applicable sales tax over the initial five-year contract term.  The Agreement allows for up to two additional two-year extensions. Implementation services began 12/1/2021 in order to configure the platform before the end of the fiscal year end close, so that the 2021 ACFR can be produced using the platform and published in a timely manner.  Expedited processing is requested in order to have the agreement executed by 12/29/2021.
