ATTEST. •�Nina Gutierrez, M Sonya'CIaar Tee, City Cler ITEM TITLE: SUBMITTED BY: BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL YAKIMA, WASHINGTON AGENDASTATEMENT Item No. 5.G. For Meeting of: February 16, 2016 Resolution authorizing a third party integrated software agreement with Invoice Cloud and Sage Solutions for Merchant Services payment processing Cindy Epperson, Director of Finance & Budget James Dean, Utility Services Manager Tara Lewis, Financial Services Manager SUMMARY EXPLANATION: On June 2, 2015, the City Council approved Resolution R-2015-073 authorizing a contract between the City of Yakima and N. Harris Computer Corporation for the provision of a Utility Customer Information Software System (CIS). Cayenta, a division of N. Harris Computer Corporation is currently onsite working with City staff to implement the CIS software. The targeted date to "go live" on the new system is July 1, 2016. The attached Progress Update on the Cayenta CIS project briefly describes the status of the Project. Integral to the project is the provision of Merchant Services — acceptance of credit and debit card payments as well as Virtual Merchant Services — online payment acceptance. Cayenta does not provide banking services, but has several "partners" who have programmed their banking software to integrate seamlessly with the Cayenta CIS software. Cayenta recommended that the City contract with Invoice Cloud based on our specific needs and desire to provide the best online payment solution to our customers. City staff have evaluated the companies that partner with Cayenta and found that we concur with their recommendation. Invoice Cloud was determined to be the solution to best serve the customers of the City of Yakima and comply with the unique banking requirements as they apply to public agencies in the State of Washington. Further description of Invoice Cloud's services and pricing is included in the attached Progress Update.

The projected date to "go live" on the new system is the weekend of July 1-4. The holiday is an opportune time to implement a new system giving staff time to test live data and be ready for customers at the beginning of a new month. Due to limitations of our old software, conversion must occur at the beginning of a month. The old system has no way to capture a complete and accurate set of data except at month end. The long weekend will also minimize the impact to customers by minimizing the down time primarily to off hours. Change orders thus far have been few and have been at no cost. Testing is proceeding according to schedule. Staff has started pass 1 of integrated testing and will begin detailed integrated testing pass 2 on March 2. We will also begin testing the integration to the financial system as it will be upgraded as part of this project. The upgrade will bring enhanced billing and receivable functionality to the Finance system. It will also integrate and automate the billing, payment and receivables system to the Financial Management System. As part of the integration to the Financial Management System, we will need to test the new Customer Self Service (CSS) portal where our Utility customers (and other miscellaneous receivable customers) can manage their own accounts through the City's website. Our utility customers will be able to review their account(s) including current account balance, prior charges and payments made, changes made to their services and make online payments or request to be set up on automated payments. They will also be able to reprint their bills, generate certain service orders to start or stop new services such as a larger garbage cart. These services orders will be reviewed by staff as they come in and then turned into work orders to send a crew as appropriate. Other City customers such as tenants at the Airport or those who are part of the Downtown Yakima Business Improvement District will be able to access and pay their charges through the same CSS portal. Currently they have no real online options to view or pay these charges. The online payment system we currently use at the City is not integrated to the current Financial software. Cayenta has recommended that the City contract with Invoice Cloud because their online payment and banking software is already integrated to Cayenta's software. This will free up staff time to devote to customer service instead of rekeying online payments that were deposited to the bank into the software each day. The software will automate this process and provide detailed information on incoming payments to assist in bank account reconciliation by the Finance Division. To do this process without integrated payment software would require intense oversight, processing and regular programming changes to comply with federal banking regulations by our Information Technology Services division which would in turn require additional staff. The volume based monthly fees of $1,100 will turn this responsibility and the associated risk over to the contractors, Invoice Cloud and Sage Solutions resulting in lower overall costs and risk to the City. Sage Solutions is the actual Merchant Services provider that will process the payments and deposit them in the City's existing bank account. Invoice Cloud provides the integration to Cayenta. The bulk of the cost of the Merchant Services is in the Interchange fees that are charged by Visa, MasterCard and Discover. Those fees are separately listed and are the same as we are currently paying under our existing agreement for Merchant Services with US Bank/Elavon. (That agreement will not be terminated due to other credit and debit card payment services around the City that will not be using the Cayenta CIS software such as Licenses and Permit, Parks, Police and the Court.) The Interchange fee portion of the contract will not increase overall banking fees at the City. It is just a change to a new intermediary providing the City access to the Interchange network so we can receive credit card payments. The Interchange fees that will be associated with the contract will be approximately $75,000 per year with about 60% being Visa, 35% Mastercard and 5% Discover. Again, since these are pass through costs, they are not additional costs, but just a change in the contractor providing access to the Interchange services we already use. The Interchange fees charged through the US Bank/Elavon contract will decrease by the same amount because the fees are all volume based charges. Although the Invoice Cloud contract falls below the threshold for City Council approval, the Interchange fee portion of the related Sage agreement puts its contract into that category. Both contracts are attached here for review and approval. In summary, the project is progressing quite well. Customer service will be significantly enhanced by the new system, staff will operate more efficiently and controls over payment processing will be enhanced and updated to comply with industry standards. Approval of the Invoice Cloud and Sage agreements is critical to keeping the project on track. The costs associated with the agreements result in increased benefits to our customers and increased efficiency of payment operations as well as reduction of risk in the credit card payment industry. No increase in Utility fees is expected due to the contracts. Since the cost increase is relatively small and spread over all the utilities, it can be easily absorbed in their operating costs.
