1972 <br />LIRGIE <br />/LOCAL GOVERNMENT <br />I N F❑ R M AT I❑ N SYSTEMS <br />eete atui99 50 ValT , a j Ezezeiegee <br />2022 <br />August 17, 2022 <br />Dear LOGIS Members, <br />Over the past 18 months LOGIS has been working with its membership to research, evaluate, and <br />select a new ERP and Utility Billing software solution to meet your needs. This featured a member - <br />driven process involving 27 agencies who collectively established software functional <br />requirements and participated in software demonstrations. It also included an 8-member ERP <br />Selection Team to guide and oversee the entire process. <br />We also partnered with the Government Finance Officers Association's Research and Consulting <br />Center to refine the requirements, create the RFP, guide the selection process, and assist on pricing <br />negotiations. We received proposals from the following providers: <br />• Advanced Utility Systems <br />• Central Square <br />• Oracle Fusion <br />■ Sprypoint <br />■ Tyler MUNIS <br />■ Workday <br />After two months of proposal reviews, four weeks of software demonstrations, and several months <br />of follow-up discussions; the Oracle Cloud ERP and Sprypoint Cloud Utility Billing software <br />solutions have been elevated by the ERP Selection Team as the preferred choice — a culmination <br />of over 1,500 collective hours from the membership and LOGIS staff. <br />We recognize that moving to the new systems will require a significant financial and operational <br />investment. To help guide you in this decision, we've compiled a list of advantages and value- <br />added outcomes that accompany these changes. This list is presented in Appendix A. Proposed <br />member costs are included in Appendices B (annual) & C (one-time implementation). <br />We understand that this is a major decision that requires careful consideration. However, to secure <br />your pricing, each member organization will need to provide a formal 10-year commitment by <br />November 15, 2022. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns regarding the <br />selection process, proposed costs, or formal commitment. We look forward to serving your ERP <br />and utility billing needs moving forward. <br />Sincerely, <br />Chri,st-opher K. M i,Ller <br />Christopher K.
