From: Marc Shorr, Information Technology Director
Report Title: Amendment No. Two to the Oracle Master Services Agreement dated November 27, 2015
☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Information Officer, or designee, to execute Amendment No. Two to the Oracle Master Services Agreement dated November 27, 2015, which allows County departments the authority to execute orders directly with Oracle for software support and maintenance, and extend the term through November 26, 2030.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The costs for the purchase of software support and maintenance agreements are borne by each County department requesting services through Oracle. The renewal of the Master Services Agreement itself has no fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
The Chief Information Officer, Department of Information Technology, entered into a Master Services Agreement (MSA) with Oracle in November 2015 to allow County departments the flexibility of purchasing services and supplies through the execution of ordering documents with Oracle without the need to negotiate specific terms and conditions which are contained and approved in the Master Services Agreement.
The MSA is being amended early to allow the renewal of software support and maintenance services with effective dates beyond November 27, 2025, and to extend the MSA to cover the full term of those services.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this request is not approved, County departments would not continue to have the authority to execute ordering documents through Oracle.
