BACKGROUND INFORMATION:  (IT17-040-01) On November 3, 2016, Procurement solicited and 
awarded a contract for a sampling and monitoring software solution for the Water Utilities Division 
Backflow program. The contract award was made under the Procurement Division’s delegated authority 
level of less than $100,000. Since that time, staff have purchased additional modules for managing data, 
compliance tracking, and workflow processing for various programs, which has caused the value of this 
contract to exceed Procurement’s delegated authority.
