COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Meeting Date: August 24, 2020
To: City Council
From: Brenda Ballou, City Clerk
Agenda Item: A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Seward, Alaska Authorizing
the City Manager to Enter into a Contract with Dude Solutions, Inc. for an
Online Business License, Permit, and Inspection Portal in the Amount of
$23,134.78, and Appropriating Funds.
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
In February, 2020, the Seward City Council performed an annual evaluation on the City Clerk and
set goals for the coming year. One of those goals was, "pursue options for getting the business
license process on an electronic application and management system."
The very first option that was explored, was to see if the City's current financial software vendor,
AccuFund, had a solution. Unfortunately, what AccuFund could offer is too limiting and linear to
make it a viable option for an online customer interface.
Through the MIS Director, two other potential vendors were contacted: OpenGov and Dude
Solutions. Several web demonstrations were conducted with both vendors, software capabilities
and customer interfaces were explored, and pricing was obtained from both vendors.
When the research and exploration began, it quickly became evident that both of those vendors
had the capability to provide solutions beyond just an online business licensing product,and so the
Community Development Department and the Building/Fire Inspection Department were brought
in to consider the permitting and inspection components of each product. (The business license
process for the City is always tied to a zoning approval, and is often tied to a building/life safety
inspection.)
Expanding the scope of the project to have an online workflow/approval process that also includes
Community Development, Fire/Building, Harbor, and Finance/Utilities, makes the most sense
because those are all the internal departmental signoffs required to obtain a City business license.
Having a software product with unlimited in-house users (i.e., department representatives) who
can review and approve compliance in an automated workflow atmosphere for the online applicant
will result in streamlining the current back-and-forth emailing and manual process that has been
used for years.
An online customer interface is a critical component to having an online solution,and both vendors
offer the capability for an applicant to apply and pay for their business license online, and then
158
monitor the progress of their application. Customers will be able to see what is left "to do" -
whether the customer needs to furnish additional information or paperwork, or whether the City
needs to accomplish a task- wherever they are in the process will be displayed for the customer
when they sign in. As well, some business owners have multiple licenses, and this program will
enable them to monitor the progress of each license along the way.
Another feature that both vendors offer is an email "alert" that enables the City to send a
notification to the customer to let them know that there has been an update in the process, or that
more information is required. This will potentially shorten the response time between customers
and the City, and help move the process along more efficiently.
VENDOR SELECTION:
Both vendors offer a very similar product-similar capabilities, customer interface, back room set
up, etc. One of the biggest initial differences between the two vendors was the pricing - Dude
Solutions offered much more competitive pricing than OpenGov. Although OpenGov
subsequently reduced their pricing substantially, the recommendation from the City Clerk,
Community Development Director, Fire Chief, and Building Inspector is to contract with Dude
Solutions. This recommendation is not based solely on pricing.
Dude Solutions is also being recommended for these additional reasons: 1) the online payments
made by the customers will be tied in directly with Paymentus, which the City already uses for
Utility, Parks & Rec and DMV payments; 2) the Public Works Department, Harbor Department,
and Parks & Recreation Department have recently begun working with Dude Solutions on an
internal work assignment and vehicle/equipment maintenance scheduling tool, and have been
pleased so far with the service they have received; 3) the vendor offers additional components that
make the program scalable, so expanding capabilities and services to customers may be an option
in the future; and, 4) the system is designed to allow each department the flexibility to customize
their forms and workflows to suit their needs, while being coordinated into one overall workflow.
INTENT:
To provide an online solution for Seward business owners to apply for, and subsequently renew,
their City business licenses, as well as permits and inspections. Customers will not be required to
use this online portal, but it will be a convenient option for those who choose to use it, and the
hope would be that more and more businesses would adopt the new process over time.

Project Scope and Approach
Implementation Process Overview
In order to successfully implement the SmartGov application, DSI will work with City Of Seward to understand
requirements necessary to configure and set up the SmartGov application to streamline processes related to
permitting, planning/zoning, inspections,code enforcement and business licensing for your jurisdiction and

configure and setup the application to support the City Of Seward's unique business rules.
Following the configuration and modeling work, DSI will train the City Of Seward's team using its jurisdiction-
specific configuration. After training, DSI will work with City Of Seward to test the work performed and provide
the necessary updates to successfully implement the solution.The system will then be ready to go live in
production. If the City Of Seward purchases"Go-Live Support"packages, DSI will provide support for the period
of time defined in the statement of work.

Merchant Service Connector Setup
SmartGov's public portal can be configured to interface with 3rd party payment gateways to accept credit card
transactions. SmartGov does not store any credit card information or other sensitive information relating to
credit card transactions processed via the portal. Most payment gateway providers will transition the user from
the SmartGov site to their own secure site in order to complete the transaction before redirecting the user back
to SmartGov.This allows the payment gateway provider to maintain the secure information and pass only
necessary information,such as a confirmation or transaction reports,to SmartGov.
The first step to implement the connector is for DSI to build the interface between SmartGov and the selected
payment provider. If the provider is new, DSI will first need to build the technical backend process to enable
electronic transactions to/from SmartGov. Once the initial backend setup is complete,SmartGov can be
configured to process payments.
Each payment gateway provider has different sets of specifications that they require to be sent to their system
to authenticate payment information.When DSI builds a connector to a payment gateway provider,a new
option will become available in the Payment Vendor drop down menu on the Administration Portal Payment
Configuration page. If a payment gateway provider does not have a connector to SmartGov, no option will be
available in the drop down menu.The payment gateway provider should provide the necessary information to
the Jurisdiction in order to complete the setup process.Administrators may be asked to provide additional
URLs to SmartGov pages for navigation purposes.
Deliverables
• Configure the Merchant Service connector to process payments for client services and transactions
processed in SmartGov
• Configure the 3rd party payment gateway to accept credit card transactions
Assumptions and Constraints
• SmartGov does not store any credit card information or other sensitive information relating to credit
card transactions processed via the portal

Change Control Authorization Process
In order to maintain a positive relationship with our clients and to complete all services and deliverables of a
project on a timely basis,all facets of the project must be agreed upon,and any changes to the project must be
requested and evaluated for impacts. Change control is an essential mechanism to monitor and document all
project changes and deviations from the original scope and objectives of the project.All project changes must
be requested via the project CCA process.The basic steps for a change are:
• The client team or DSI team discovers a need to change the project.
• The authorized client project manager or DSI Project Manager is notified and a CCA is initiated.
• The written project change request is reviewed by all necessary parties and either accepted or rejected.
• If rejected,the change request is maintained in the project file for reference purposes.
• If the written change request is accepted,then:
• All necessary signatures are recorded on the change request
• All affected documentation is revised to reflect the change(s)
• Any adjustments to schedule,scope,and/or cost are made to the overall project plan
• Signatures are required for all change requests
• Copies of the official approved and signed CCA are forwarded to the customer project manager and DSI
Project Manager for the documentation archive. DSI will forward a copy to the Project Accounting Team
in the office to update the project information and budget(if necessary).
Change Control Authorizations Process Steps
Step Type Description
A request is made for a change to the agreed upon scope baseline.The request
1 Request may be internally or externally generated, must be formally written and
communicated to the project manager,and may have been prompted by any
number of reasons or events.
The project manager facilitates an evaluation to confirm that the requested
2 Evaluate change is in fact a change to the agreed upon scope baseline. If so,the project
manager implements the request as described below.
If the request is in fact a change to the scope baseline,the project manager
3 Assess assesses the impact on project schedule,budget and work products, using a
similar approach as the original project planning process, utilizing team member
expertise as needed.
