Council approves Andrews Technology time clock upgrade to replace aging terminals
Summary
Council approved a cooperative purchase with Andrews Technology for new fingerprint terminals and system integration. One-time implementation costs were presented alongside ongoing hosting and maintenance estimates; council approved the purchase 5-0.
Staff recommended a cooperative purchase to replace the city's aging time-clock hardware with Andrews Technology terminals and software compatible with the city's forthcoming HR/finance systems. Staff said existing hardware was over eight years old and incompatible with the newer software; the recommended purchase would use a cooperative (TIPS) contract.
Fiscal details presented included a total cost in budget of $24,100, a one-time $13,520 payment for fingerprint terminal purchases and implementation, and ongoing hosting and maintenance costs. Staff said systems would be installed in public works and parks buildings and that a web fallback option can be configured for use if fingerprint terminals are unavailable. Council approved the cooperative purchase by motion and second, vote 5-0.
Staff will schedule implementation alongside the HR/financial software roll-out and will configure location and geofence settings as directed by council.
