Call to Order


The meeting was called to order at 8:05 a.m. by Dave Shafer.


Approval of Minutes


Dave Shafer presented the minutes of the May 18, 2017 meeting. Upon a motion by Bob Carnahan, seconded by Greg Stinson, the Committee approved the minutes.


Review of Financial Status


Angie Hayes reported that Kelly Wenger is no longer employed with NIRPC and has gone to work for NICTD. The Financial reports were reviewed. Angie reported she has had issues with some vendors in regard to receiving billings in a timely manner which resulted in the reports only being through May 31 instead of June 30. NIRPC has received all 2017 county distributions . The Indiana State Board of Accounts audit of NIRPC has been completed with no audit findings or comments. A link to the 2016 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) will be sent by email.

Approval of Claims Register


Dave Shafer presented the claims register to the Committee for approval. Upon a motion by Bob Carnahan, seconded by Greg Stinson, the Committee approved the claims register.

Attorney Contract Scope of Work Discussion


Angie Hayes presented the scope of work and evaluation criteria for procuring an attorney for NIRPC. Upon a motion by Greg Stinson, seconded by Richard Hardaway, the Committee accepted the Scope of Work and evaluation criteria as presented. An RFP will be released by August 1, 2017 with responses due by September 1, 2017. The RFPs will be reviewed at the


September Finance and Personnel Committee meeting unless a special meeting is requested by the Committee based on number of responses received.

NIRPC Meeting Room Rental Policy Discussion


Angie Hayes initiated a discussion regarding how NIRPC should handle the renting out of meeting rooms. A suggestion was made to set a fee and use the amount as in-kind for non­ profit/governmental use of the rooms and charge for-profit entities for use. Dave Hollenbeck will look into how the building lease reads.

Accufund Contract Extension


Angie Hayes presented contract Amendment 4, to extend the contract between Accufund, Inc. and NIRPC until December 31, 2017. The extension would allow for dashboarding reports to be set up. There is a cost savings for extending the contract rather than entering into a new contract. Upon motion by Bob Carnahan, seconded by Greg Stinson, the Committee approved the contract extension with Accufund, Inc.

2017 Budget Amendment


Karen Freeman-Wilson presented 2017 budget Amendment 4 to transfer $22,500 from salaries to contractual for the purchase and implementation of new E-TIP software for the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP}. Upon motion by Bob Carnahan, seconded by Greg Stinson, the Committee approved budget amendment 4.

Ty Warner announced that NIRPC's certification review, which takes place every four years, is underway. A public meeting was held in Gary on July 19 and another public meeting will be held on July 20 at 11:00 a.m. after the NIRPC commission meeting.

Bob Carnahan, who is on the Advisory Board of Lakeshore Public Media, announced that they are $96m in the red and are looking for ways to attract money. They are also looking to move their antennae from Lake Dale to Merrillville for better reception for the Chicago area which hopefully could encourage Chicago sponsors.

Ty Warner announced that the positions of Director of Transportation and Regional Planner/Policy Analyst have been posted with closing dates at the end of July. These positions are to replace Steve Strains who retired and J ames Winters who changed positions and is now the Transit Planner for NIRPC.

Ecolnteractive

I N N O V A T I V E D A T A S O L U T I O N S


  1. Fee Schedule

    Eco Interactive will provide the ProjectTracker Saas solution for the NIRPC to access over the Internet for use by NIRPC and their member agencies/stakeholders to manage TIP transportation projects. NIRPC is requesting Ecolnteractive's standard level of service. This proposal is for services only (NIRPC receives no deliverables for this project and no professional services or works for hire are included) . No subcontractors, DBEs, or travel are included or will be utilized in this scope of work.


    Phase 1: One-time customizations for N IRPC's specific needs

    Ecolnteractive will invest up to 200 hours over the first six months for customizations, data import, and initial start-up services . Ecolnteractive is committed to a long-term relationship with NIRPC and it is important for this process to meet your requirements. Ecolnteractive considers these one-time costs as an Ecolnteractive investment in the ProjectTracker Saas solution for NIRPC. Ecolnteractive is offering NIRPC an annual ProjectTracker Saas package that includes:


A fixed monthly subscription fee will be billed at the end of each month following contract initiation. During the first few weeks, Ecolnteractive will give access to the new ProjectTracker Saas established for NIRPC. Following the software installation and web site creation, Ecolnteractive will import NIRPC data and NIRPC will begin to review the functionality of the ProjectTracker Saas. During weekly online meetings, NIRPC will identify needed customizations to adapt the software to NIRPC business processes. Implementation and scheduling is discussed below.


Phase 1: Tasks & Milestones

Ecolnteractive has proposed the following 6-month timeline. NIRPC may adjust or reprioritize the order in which modules are implemented. On-going Saas will begin immediately following the completion of the Phase l.

Historical Data Import

This is a standard part of the six-month customization process for ProjectTracker Saas. Ecolnteractive will utilize internal tool sets and our extensive experience and talented staff to support this data conversion and migration from multiple disparate data systems. Ecolnteractive has implemented the ProjectTracker Saas solution for many customers in less than six months. This includes migration of

B l P a g e

Ecolnteractive

I N N O V A T I V E D A T A S O L U T I O N S


historical data from disparate sources into the new ProjectTracker Saas. Ecolnteractive has worked with many historical datasets as well as successfully integrated data from other internal databases and external sources. Ecolnteractive's extensive knowledge of transportation data helps insure that our staff can quickly understand and use internal tools to import data into the ProjectTracker Saas to meet the NIRPC's unique needs. Ecolnteractive is uniquely qualified for this project as Ecolnteractive has routinely completed many other similar projects for transportation agencies with great success. Ecolnteractive expects to establish the NIRPC's ProjectTracker Saas infrastructure in the first 4 weeks. An initial customized version of ProjectTracker Saas, including the upload of NIRPC data, will be up and running within the first 12 - 16 weeks of contract award.


Phase 2: Provide Ongoing ProjectTracker Saas for NIRPC

Ecolnteractive is committed to providing long-term ProjectTracker Saas to NIRPC. Ecolnteractive will continue to bill the same fixed monthly subscription fee as it did in Phase 1for Phase 2. The monthly Saas subscription fee will cover Software maintenance, Saas hosting, help desk support, and include a package of up to 120 support hours annually that can be used to make enhancements to the system including (but not limited to) new reports, help desk support, tracking new values, or modifying business rules. The help desk allows clients to meet changing user requirements for the duration of the contract. The help desk provides fast response and quick turnaround technical support.
