Committee reviews amendment letting ABC access Manhattan warehouse data for real-time reporting
Summary
An assistant counsel for the ABC board explained a six-year amendment to the Manhattan warehouse-management contract that gives ABC real-time access to cloud-stored data, a 90-day look-back window, and a path to migrate historical records to ABC's Microsoft Azure accounts at $65,000 per year (first year prorated).

Rob Drake, assistant counsel for the ABC board, told the Contract Review Committee that an amendment to the Manhattan warehouse-management contract will give ABC both real-time access to analytics collected by Manhattan and the ability to migrate historical data to ABC-controlled Microsoft Azure accounts.
Drake said Manhattan will retain hosted data for 90 days to provide a look-back capability and that the amendment also allows ABC to obtain historical records for longer-term storage on its own servers. The amendment term proposed is six years at $65,000 annually, with the first year prorated to about $10,000.
Committee members asked clarifying questions about which cloud accounts would store the data and heard that Manhattan uses Microsoft Azure; ABC staff said the migration would move historical datasets into the agency’s Azure environment. No committee member raised a formal objection during that presentation and the item moved on to the next agenda topic.
The committee did not take a recorded roll-call vote on this item during the session; questions about implementation and access controls were limited to the discussion in the meeting.
