The DuPage County Technology Committee on Feb. 4 approved multiple contract recommendations for software maintenance and managed services and received informational purchase orders for sheriff’s office IT equipment.
The committee approved a sole-source contract purchase order to Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri) to provide maintenance and technical support for the county’s enterprise geographic information system (GIS) software for the period March 9, 2025, through March 8, 2026.
