Strategic Resource Alignment Overview


Background:
In 2012, the City reached a point where the status quo delivery of Technology Services (TS) could no longer be sustainable. A TS-SRA project was conducted. The project determined options for sizing and structuring TS to meet desired service levels at sustainable funding levels. 12 main functional service areas were reviewed and evaluated, service level targets were developed, and service delivery options identified. It was determined that a total of about 88 FTE and $40 million in additional resources need to be invested in TS (including both operating and capital needs, and one-time and on-going needs).

History:
In 2012, $1.6 million was approved to take advantage of a deep year-end discount for needed SAN storage equipment For 2013, $2.5 million was approved to start meeting critical needs identified within the SRA and an additional $3.45 million was approved upon the passage of 2A For 2014, $2.6 million is included in the TS base budget to sustain SRA items implemented in 2013, which includes 16 FTE and ongoing maintenance and supplies, and $5.15 million is currently earmarked to sustain the 2A level of funding for further SRA implementation Total through 2013 - $7,550,000 and 16.0 FTEs
