City seeks consulting and API work to integrate ERP billing with AMI meter system, with $17,000 contingency
Summary
The IT/CTO presenter asked commissioners to approve consulting and an API to integrate the city’s ERP billing with the automated meter infrastructure (AMI) project and requested a contingency of $17,000 to cover integration activities and reduce manual billing tasks.
The city’s IT/CTO described a resolution to fund consulting and an application interface to integrate the enterprise resource planning (ERP) billing system with the automated meter infrastructure (AMI) being installed. Staff said the integration will remove manual bridging tasks between systems, deliver near‑real‑time usage data to customers and better support utility billing operations.
The request included a contingency figure of $17,000 to cover unanticipated integration activities. Staff noted they will put an RFP out for other project components as bid expirations approach. Commissioners asked for clarity on long‑term operating models and whether integration work is an interim or permanent solution; staff said this resolution is focused on immediate integration to support AMI implementation.
