Type and Scope of services to be performed:

With the objective of providing a streamlined solution for the City’s contract management process that is easily configurable and provides an improved user experience, City Attorney’s Office (CAO), Technology Services (TS) and Purchasing led an effort to purchase the Jaggaer Contract Management System (CMS) Software as a Service (SaaS) solution in 2018 to replace the existing Alfresco custom coded system. This amendment allows for the continual use of that system.

 

Note:  The Alfresco repository, where documents are stored, was not replaced by Jaggaer. Jaggaer replaced the Alfresco contract management workflow.

 

Contracts prepared by the CAO for the City and County of Denver (CCD) are being saved in a centralized repository, the Alfresco system (back end). In the business environment prior to Jaggaer, any workflows needed for these contracts required TS to develop custom code. This code was embedded within Alfresco which made keeping the repository up to date very complex and workflow requests could take weeks to implement. Also, prior to Jaggaer, in order for vendors to sign contracts, manual intervention was required. Vendors manually signed the contract signature page and sent it to the agency, who then scanned and uploaded the signed signature page into Alfresco. In 2016, this process took on average 26 days for agencies to negotiate and obtain the vendor signature for contracts. In addition, the previous Alfresco application had multiple contract management customizations that inhibited the upgrade to Alfresco 5.0. This custom functionality built into the framework of Alfresco needed to be removed in order to upgrade the Alfresco platform. Any future upgrade of Alfresco is dependent upon the successful de-coupling of the contracts management workflow (front end) and a new contracts management system was needed. 

 

The Jaggaer CMS is used across the City by over 40 agencies and 1060 end-users. This CMS software is used to manage the creation, negotiation, signature, renewal and data analysis of legal contracts. Jaggaer interfaces with Alfresco (City’s system of records for contracts), Workday (for purchasing requisitions and supplier information) and DocuSign (for contract signatures).

 

 

As part of the City’s use of the Jaggaer CMS, the City pays an annual fee for software support and maintenance. Software maintenance and support services include remote troubleshooting and support provided via the telephone and online channels, as well as installation assistance and basic usability assistance. Software support services may also include new product installation services, installation of product updates, migrations for major releases of software and other types of proactive or reactive on-site services, future minor versions or future major releases of software. These support services are employed to ensure the application is functioning at its maximum capacity.

 

This contract amendment extends the term by 5 years and increases the maximum contract amount to allow payment for continual vendor provided software maintenance and support.
