County staff brief board on ERP, regional reassessment RFP and early asset‑management steps
Summary
Staff reported an active procurement process for new ERP software, an RFP for a regional reassessment with neighboring counties, and initiation of asset‑management inventory work supported by a summer intern to help catalogue county assets.
County administrators updated supervisors on several administrative projects: an enterprise resource planning (ERP) procurement, a regional reassessment request for proposals (RFP) drafted with neighboring counties, and startup steps for an asset‑management inventory.
ERP and reassessment: Anne Marie Riccardi (county staff) said 11 vendors attended a pre‑bid meeting for the ERP replacement and that the procurement work is moving forward. County administrator Matt Walker discussed a regional reassessment RFP prepared with Mathews and King and Queen counties, which the county plans to post; Walker said the goal is to solicit proposals, convene a selection committee and aim for a July contract award.
Asset management and internship: Supervisors said funds in the county engineer’s budget will support an intern this summer to begin a comprehensive asset‑management inventory that catalogs facilities, equipment and lifecycle estimates; county engineering staff will coordinate the work.
Why it matters: Upgrading financial/ERP systems and completing reassessments affect county finance accuracy and long‑term budgeting; an asset inventory helps plan capital replacement and maintenance cycles to inform multi‑year budgeting.
Next steps: Staff will post the reassessment RFP, accept ERP proposals, and start the asset inventory with intern support; the board was invited to join the reassessment selection committee if interested.
