Information Technology Department – GML104B
Finalsite
Term – August 1, 2024 – July 31, 2025
Amount of Subscription - $101,918.00
Account Number – 450-5164-100000-2630-B2300 (2024-2025 Contractual - $101,918.00)
Scope – In January 2024, the District released RFP 487 – Website Development, Content Management System and Mass Notification System and Maintenance. Currently we are in the process of finalizing the selection of the vendor and fully expect to submit a Board Resolution in August 2024 for the award. The expectation is to go live with the new website in July of 2025. As result of that we will need to continue with our current provider of these services, Finalsite, as we look to begin with the configuration of the new platform for a summer 2025 roll out. This resolution is seeking the approval of the Board of Education to continue the agreement with Finalsite for the Schoolwires platform to provide web related presence/services for the 2024-2025 school year. This is the final year of the Schoolwires platform as Finalsite will be sunsetting the product in 2025. |
