The TICC believes that Ms. Serratos has an excellent cost/benefit justification for the plan and that it will provide substantial benefit to the City in providing a long-term effective,flexible,and maintainable IT environment. We recommended that Ms.Serratos begin as soon as possible with a significant pilot test of the environm ant,avoiding,if at all possible,the time and expense of an RFP for the pilot since both the necessary hardware and software are readily available with well-established pricing. The TICC agreed unanimously to support her current proposal to the City Council. >You can tell the Council that if they want me to explain further,you can have me there in 15 minutes. > Peter 1
