AGENDA FINANCE COMMITTEEMeeting Notice Date: 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, November 10, 2009
1. Roll Call 2. Approval of Minutes of the October 6, 2009 Meeting - ACTION* attachment 3. Recommend Award of a Three-Year Contract, with an Option to Extend for Two Additional One-Year Periods, to SPTJ Consulting, in an Amount Not to Exceed $496,500, for Local Area Network and Computer Maintenance Services; and Authorization for the Executive Director to Negotiate the Non-Monetary Provisions - ACTION* attachment The Authority seeks to contract with one qualified service provider to support the varied technological needs of the agency. On September 11, 2009, the Authority issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Local Area Network (LAN) and Computer Maintenance Services to support the Authority's work program over the next three years. The Authority is dependent on computers, telecommunications and internet access for almost all of its daily activities. The small staff size of the Authority does not warrant full-time, in-house technical support, so most technical maintenance and support tasks are outsourced to a professional consultant team that comes to the Authority offices on an as-needed basis. By the due date of October 13, the Authority received seven (7) proposals in response to the RFP. Based on the selection panel's evaluation of the written proposals, on October 15, the Authority issued invitations to interview the three top-ranked teams. Interviews were held on October 20. Based on this competitive selection process, the review panel recommends award of the contract to SPTJ Consulting. We are seeking a recommendation for award of a three-year contract, with an option to extend for two additional one-year periods, to SPTJ Consulting, in an amount not to exceed $496,500, for LAN and Computer Maintenance Services; and authorization for the Executive Director to negotiate the non-monetary provisions. 4. Internal Accounting Report and Investment Report for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 - INFORMATION* attachment The Authority's Fiscal Policy directs staff to present a quarterly report of expenditures including a comparison to the approved budget. The Authority's Investment Policy directs that a review of portfolio compliance be presented along with the quarterly report. The Internal Accounting Report and Investment Report for the three months ended September 30, 2009, are presented for information. 5. Recommend Authorizing the Executive Director to Initiate Development of the Expenditure Plan and Process, Pursuant to the Requirements in SB 83 (Hancock), for the Imposition of an Additional Vehicle Registration Fee in San Francisco - ACTION* attachment Last month, the Governor signed into law SB 83 (Hancock), which authorizes Congestion Management Agencies to impose an annual fee of up to $10 on motor vehicles registered within the county. The funds would have to be used for programs and projects benefitting the people paying the fee, and they would have to be consistent with the Regional Transportation Plan. The Authority Board would have to adopt a specified Expenditure Plan. The fee measure, which is estimated to generate a maximum of $5 million per year in San Francisco, would require a majority vote of the electorate in order to become effective. We are seeking authorization for the Executive Director to initiate the development of the Expenditure Plan and process, pursuant to the requirements in SB 83 (Hancock), for the imposition of an additional vehicle registration fee in San Francisco. 6.
