STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Enhance Infrastructure and Mobility.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
Denton Municipal Electric (DME) currently uses the ESRI ArcGIS software for geometric network (GN)
for data modeling. Due to the end of the application’s lifecycle, DME is migrating to the new Utility
Network (UN) platform. The original project's estimated date of completion was December 2023. The
project efforts have expanded due to correlating projects for the OMS/ADMS and ArcFM Designer. The
new estimated date of completion has been extended to March 2024.
This change order requests additional efforts associated with the continuation and completion of the project
which has been extended approximately three months to March 25, 2024. Burns and McDonnell has
provided exceptional management of the existing Utility Network project. Continued technical guidance
from the same firm will help to ensure the project remains successful.
