IT staff told the committee that the ERP implementation has made “tremendous progress” but is not yet ready for a system-wide rollout. Staff said there are confidential issues they could not discuss in open session and offered to brief committee members directly. The committee’s executive sponsor, Nick Hotmeyer, was cited by staff as directing that the county not proceed with a rollout until the product is “almost as close to perfect as possible.”

On the mainframe retirement, staff said they are working with the sheriff’s office on a warrant application that had targeted a January go-live but is now projecting a June deployment; until that application is removed, the county will continue operating the mainframe. Staff estimated annual maintenance savings of roughly $150,000 to $200,000 once the mainframe is fully retired, but told the committee those savings may not materialize this fiscal year if the final application remains on the system past the intended date.

Other updates included:

- A portal upgrade (Mingle) completed by ERP support staff that increases functionality for users.

- An ImageXpress server upgrade for the MHC environment, expected to complete in May, intended to improve stability.

- An upgrade of the police records management system (PRMS) to improve functionality and reporting, and a parallel consortium-led request for proposals (RFP) to evaluate modern records-management platforms for about 31 law-enforcement agencies in the county; staff expect a selection by the end of the year.

- Continued work on operational-excellence initiatives and a report on handling service requests that staff expect to present at a future quarterly meeting.

Staff also summarized recent outreach: a municipal roundtable and a Gartner presentation forecasting federal-level changes that could affect technology funding and programs, and renewed access to state cybersecurity resources through the state Chief Information Security Officer, Jason Bowen, who staff said has opened channels for better engagement with municipalities.

Staff invited committee members to the next meeting on May 1 and said meetings are held in person with a virtual option.","County IT gave progress updates on the ERP implementation, mainframe shutdown, records-management upgrades and other projects; staff said ERP work remains unfinished, a sheriff’s office application delayed the mainframe transition, and savings from the shutdown may be deferred until 2026.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6093613,"DuPage County committee approves updated acceptable-use policy, OKs small Copilot pilot",80,435000,515000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2846225-950403b5aab13d58e62fd1b13918c720&start=435&end=515","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2846225-950403b5aab13d58e62fd1b13918c720/thumbnail_435000.jpg","/articles/6093613/DuPage-County/Illinois/DuPage-County-committee-approves-updated-acceptable-use-policy-OKs-small-Copilot-pilot","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6093613-1b84d19735e12f63ba2dbef0ba8c7e01/orig.mp4?Expires=1774928124&Signature=YqpEkgFXTgSrJst4~XEsnt7tRRzhca9KZYcIWLcLpibJmX07mxrx3cRy-gYmzGL36el2Zc1PJXJaupERwGoU9bHJneIokEmyf3Y-VF~SfHNABLyVVM-IJtMk7aUYVpEfT3P~LzYa9PWrKBywr3iQh8D1bQCxj1Y4HDPxPyiISWR4UJ77rsbhFCZ9qVaXnBYJ94V0fcV9zBg0s3yq2P8FXFvTqnIto62ObFiKFLIk1ZNtF5o8pjC-YrsOr549TE5GDfmb7f7QQCxsLVj-KEDxJ-LOvjyJa6BF4OL-crKqulfNLCJrQ3e0nAtHeujnB55jZyKRsBn2R7wh3zOvrceN9A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The DuPage County Technology Committee on April 1 voted to adopt a revised Technology Resources Acceptable Use Policy and to amend a county contract with Dell Inc. to add a limited set of Microsoft Copilot licenses for testing.

The committee approved a motion to adopt the revised acceptable-use policy (TER-125) after an information presentation explaining that the county’s AUP had not been updated since 2012 and that the revisions modernize technical language, add collective-bargaining agreement language, and replace “should” language with mandatory requirements. Anthony (last name not specified), an IT staff presenter, told the committee, “Believe it or not, we have not updated our AUP since 2012. So 13 years.”

The committee then approved an amendment to the county contract with Dell Inc. (TECO 3-25) to increase the encumbrance by $7,478 to procure a small number of Microsoft Copilot licenses for staff testing. Committee members were told the licenses are intended for a limited pilot so that staff can evaluate whether Copilot delivers productivity and accuracy improvements before making a larger purchase.

Why it matters: the policy revision establishes explicit rules for technology use countywide and the Copilot pilot begins operational testing of generative-AI tools in DuPage County systems. Committee discussion focused on how the county will prevent protected data from being exposed to AI services and how the county will control which internal data Copilot can access.

During discussion, presenters said the county plans to manage Copilot instances with Copilot Studio so the tool can be trained only on DuPage County sources and kept within county-managed boundaries. Presenters noted that existing Microsoft 365 data-loss prevention (DLP) policies will apply to Copilot in the same manner as other Microsoft 365 services: “The current 365 DLP data loss prevention policies will carry over to Copilot as well,” the presenter said. Committee members raised the risk that users might export or save protected outputs (for example to a USB drive) and were told those risks are being evaluated as part of the pilot and AI task-force work.

Clerk’s office staff requested that their abstention be noted in the record for the acceptable-use policy vote. The meeting audio records a motion, a second, and a voice/roll-call indication of approval for both items; no opposing votes were recorded in the transcript.

Presenters identified IT staff who led the AUP rewrite and related security work, including Michelle Lamonte, described in the meeting as the county’s cybersecurity engineer, and Joe Hamlin, described as manager of network systems.

The committee meeting packet, the revised AUP (TER-125), and the Dell contract amendment (TECO 3-25) were not distributed during the meeting; presenters said they would email copies to committee members after the meeting.","The DuPage County Technology Committee approved a revised Technology Resources Acceptable Use Policy and authorized a small purchase of Microsoft Copilot licenses to run a pilot, while members discussed data-loss protections and oversight.","actionData","errors"]
