UCPS Board Authorizes Termination of Syllogist Ed ERP Implementation, Approves Consent Items
Summary
The board voted to authorize staff, through counsel, to terminate the portion of the Syllogist Ed ERP contract implementing the ERP immediately and to end remaining obligations by June 30, 2027; the consent agenda and December minutes were also approved and several policies were set for first review.
The Union County Board of Education authorized staff, acting through counsel, to terminate the district’s contract with the vendor identified in the transcript as "Syllogist" (transcript spelling varies) for the portion implementing the Syllogist Ed ERP effective immediately and to terminate all other obligations and responsibilities as of June 30, 2027.
An unidentified board member moved the action: "I move that we authorize staff through counsel to terminate the contract with Syllogist as follows. Terminate the portion that implements Syllogist Ed ERP effective immediately and terminate all other obligations and responsibilities as of 06/30/2027." The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote; the meeting record shows the motion passing with ayes recorded.
Earlier in the meeting the board approved the agenda, the consent agenda and the December minutes by voice vote. Staff also presented five policies and administrative guidelines for first review (one administrative guideline and two proposed new policies); staff noted minor paragraph and numbering edits and offered to answer questions at a future meeting.
What happens next: Staff were authorized to proceed through counsel on the contract termination. The board did not provide a public roll-call vote or record a tally by name in the meeting transcript; staff follow-up and counsel involvement were indicated.
