From: A. Marino
Subj.: Esri license Finance Committee request
Since 2013 the City has had an Enterprise License Agreement with Esri for GIS software
products. This license gives the city the ability to utilize the online products with the ability to
share the GIS maps produced among groups within the City. The attached license agreement is a
three year renewal of this license and provides subscription service as well as the ability to utilize
any software product within the GIS suite of software.
Based on the size of the city the current Enterprise license costs $50,000 and allows us to have a
subscription service which is necessary to publish and share maps and data within Groups created
for our organization. To purchase this license, Esri has again allowed us to partner with
Pennichuck Corporation. The structure of our agreement with Pennichuck will divide all costs and
services for the Enterprise license exactly in half, making the net cost to the City of $25,000 per
year.
The licensing of the software in this manner will enhance GIS services in the City and also allow
us to share information with Pennichuck. Pennichuck has agreed to allow us to use the GIS being
created of their infrastructure which will be shared with all DPW departments. Having this ability
will provide additional information for DPW projects which currently does not exist.
In accordance with § 5-84 A(4) special purchase procedures for sole source procurements, we are
requesting approval of this three-year contract renewal with Esri of Redlands, CA in the amount
of $25,000 per year.
