Committee approves two IT contracts on consent to migrate CityWorks and modernize timekeeping

The Budget and Finance Committee placed two technology ordinances on the consent agenda and approved them without recorded opposition.

The first ordinance authorizes the mayor to contract with Walpert Incorporated to assist the city’s migration of the CityWorks asset‑management platform to Trimble’s cloud environment. Deputy Finance Director Mike Wheeler said the item covers implementation support; the committee discussed that Walpert would assist city staff during the one‑time migration and not that the city was purchasing the CityWorks software itself.

The second ordinance would allow the city to contract for a pilot deployment of 25 dormakaba time clocks that integrate directly with the city’s Workday human resources and payroll system. Wheeler said the goal is to modernize legacy punch‑card and manual timekeeping processes in public works, recreation and other operations and to streamline payroll submission.

Both items were moved and seconded as consent agenda items and approved. No formal roll‑call vote for these consent items was recorded in the transcript; committee members indicated assent and the chair declared the motions passed.

Next steps: the consented ordinances will be sent to council for further processing; specific contract amounts and implementation schedules were not specified on the record during the consent motions.
