Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

On December 5, 2023, the County of Mendocino Standard Services Agreement (PA #24-35) was executed with the Visionary Integration Professionals (“VIP”).

 

Summary of Request

The Cannabis Department went live with Accela licensing software on June 1, 2023. The attached scope of work, funded by the recent Local Jurisdiction Assistance Grant Program (“LJAGP”) amendment, will provide much needed enhancements and efficiencies to the already existing software. In addition to the enhancements and efficiencies, this agreement allows 150 hours in Monthly Maintenance and Support hours with Visionary Integration Professional (“VIP”). This agreement will provide a single point of contact for general inquiries, provide subject matter expertise for the triage of issues and troubleshooting, management of Accela Support Issues, and any configuration updates to the software.

 

VIP will provide hourly assistance for mutually agreed upon enhancements and shall provide services and staff on a time and materials basis to accomplish the following tasks: Project Management, New Record Types (5), Changes and Updates to Batch Scripts, Update Custom Fields, Script changes for the custom field changes, Changes to the Renewal Record Workflow Changes for AV (Back-office) Page Flow Changes for ACA (Public User), New Notifications for Treasurer-Tax Collector, New Payment Adapter Configuration, and the integration of a DocuSign Interface. These changes will help streamline Cannabis Cultivation Business Licensing, increased inter Departmental collaboration, and allow for an overall better public user experience.
