Item 20 Passed 9-0
In plain language — from the agenda backup
This would extend the city's contract with CGI Technologies and Solutions for keeping the Advantage financial management system running and supported for Austin Financial Services. It's the behind-the-scenes software the city leans on to manage its money, so keeping it maintained matters. The amendment adds $4.8 million, bringing the total contract to no more than $22,138,227 — with $600,000 available now in the Financial Services operating budget and the rest depending on future budgets.
