Hi Ramon,
Thanks for reaching out! A copy of the City's contract for development and
implementation of OpenCounter (in which they were actually a subcontractor
and Accela was the prime) is attached here.
The contract package includes:
- The CM10/11 for contract 40194
- Addendum to the City's standard terms
- Hosted Service Addendum
- Perpetual License Agreement
- Order Form
- SOW
- RFP Award Recommendation
I've also attached a copy of the one-year maintenance contract we entered
into directly with OpenCounter for 2017-2018. Since the expiration of that
contract, we're no longer using OpenCounter.
Best,
Laura
