Board approves GE iFix and ThinManager support renewals, pending legal review
Summary
The board approved renewal of GE Global iFix support (~$36,000) and ThinManager support (~$6,500) for SCADA and device connectivity; both are budgeted and subject to legal approval.
Valerie told the board the plant's GE iFix SCADA support agreement expires in early August and that the annual support cost is about $36,000; the support is budgeted and staff requested legal approval to renew the contract. She said Rockwell TechConnect SCADA support had been included on the consent agenda and that the GE and ThinManager renewals complement that service.
On ThinManager, Valerie said the support (about $6,500 annually) is budgeted across water and wastewater and enables IPads and other devices to connect to SCADA. A motion to approve both renewals pending legal review was moved and seconded, and the board approved them by voice vote.
Staff noted one department representative (Doug Swan) was absent due to a family medical matter; staff confirmed the expenses were within budget and would proceed with legal review before final execution.
