CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM

title

body
DEPARTMENT: Electric Utility
SUBMITTED BY: Brian Groth
BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
The Electric Utility (Utility) has been using Oracle database software since 2011 to store, validate, and manage its metering data. Oracle database software is industry standard for this application and is fully integrated with the Utility’s meter data management system (MDMS) and Empower customer portal.
DISCUSSION:
The renewal of the Oracle annual licensing allows the Utility to continue to operate the Oracle database software, obtain updates to remediate security vulnerabilities, and receive technical support for issues beyond the expertise of in-house staff. Due to continual analysis of system performance, it is best to contract for one year at a time to ensure flexibility.
Staff has identified an approved State of Illinois cooperative contract, IL DOIT CMT1116440, through Mythics, Inc. for the procurement of the Oracle support renewal. The term for support begins January 13, 2023 and ends January 12, 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP#: N/A
There was $1.58M proposed as apart of the 2023 budget process for software & hardware maintenance initiatives. With Council’s approval there would be sufficient funds in the 2023 budget to cover the cost of this award.
