HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 12 - Enterprise Sourcing Services MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 5, 2024
SUBJECT: RENEWAL OF ENTERPRISE SOURCING SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider the renewal of an annual contract for enterprise
sourcing services with Ion Wave Technologies, Inc. for the Fiscal Services
Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the General Fund (Fiscal Services) for an amount
not to exceed $25,700.
BACKGROUND: The Ion Wave enterprise sourcing package automates the process of
creating, issuing, awarding bids, and managing contracts. By leveraging
the system's libraries, templates, and importing capabilities, the
procurement function benefits from increased speed, automated auditing,
and the elimination of redundant data entry. It also increases vendor
participation in the bid process.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal
agreement with Choice Partners, a division of Harris County Department
of Education, as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Section 271
and Texas Government Code, Section 791. This contract is with Ion Wave
Technologies, Inc. for eProcurement and Contract Management services
and if approved, this will be the fourth renewal available.
Staff recommends approval.
