Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Questica Software, Inc.

 

Type and Scope of services to be performed:

Questica is the City’s budget system. It was first implemented in 2015 as a Software as a Service (SaaS - cloud-based service) solution, and we are at the end of the first five-year contract term for subscription services. It was first procured through a formal bid process through the City’s Purchasing division. The prior budget system had been in place for 16 years and was no longer supported by the vendor. This contract request extends the subscription service for another 5 years. While the Questica Budget system is used primarily by the Budget and Management Office, all City agencies utilize the system to develop their annual budget requests (with the exception of DEN). There are approximately 200 users across the City. Questica’s performance module will be added under the new contract as per their new fee structure and will be implemented with the next upgrade.
