year extensions, in the total five (5) year not-to-exceed amount of $1,099,000.00). The Public Utilities
Board recommends approval (5 - 0).
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Pursue Organizational Excellence and Collaborative and Respectful
Leadership.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The City of Denton Water Production Department has utilized the Cityworks software since 1997. The
Cityworks application is tightly integrated into the City’s GIS Enterprise system to address aging
infrastructure, leaks, and the potential for severed mains. Staff can quickly isolate underground leaks,
respond faster to main breaks, and prioritize capital improvement spending based on preventative activities,
testing, and inspections.
The Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) software agreement will include licensing coverage up to current
needs and allow for ongoing expansion needs. With this software agreement, the City will receive new add-
ons such as improved real-time reporting, streamlined data collection from field staff, enhanced mobile
applications for iPad and Android devices, and integrations with other applications. In addition, this
includes the upgrade cost for the ELA for existing departments and future additional departments. The
updated ELA licenses include: unlimited Office, Local Governments Templates, Storeroom, Equipment
Checkout, Contracts, CW Analytics for AMS, CW for Excel, and Mobile Apps for iOS/Android, Respond,
Enterprise URL, Operational Insights, Performance Budgeting, and Web Hooks. It includes the use of all
AMS Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) with commercially available Cityworks-centric
applications that are licensed and maintained by authorized Cityworks partners. Finally, the use of
Cityworks (APIs) with third-party system integrations is included.

It is essential for the City of Denton to keep current maintenance with the software vendor in order to ensure
availability of upgrades, software fixes, and access to knowledge and support resources. The Technology
Services department could not identify any local vendors that could replace and provide software
maintenance for the Cityworks application. Therefore, procuring this maintenance from the above vendor
is the best value for the City of Denton.
Cityworks Licenses Costs Estimated 5-Year Expenditure
Year 1 $156,901.50
Year 2 163,177.56
Year 3 169,704.66
Year 4 176,492.85
Year 5 183,552.56
Contingency for additional support hours/licenses 249,170.87
Total $1,099,000.00
The City will be migrating Drainage, Streets, Traffic, and the Parks Departments to Cityworks software,
which is why the Technology Services Department is requesting additional contingency to cover these
licenses post-implementation.
Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code provides that procurement of sole source commodities and
services are exempt from competitive bidding, if over $100,000, shall be awarded by the governing body.
