ensure successful completion of the project within the next eighteen months; and
WHEREAS based on experience gained in Phase I, Compuware has submitted an
initial estimate of $7.6 million to complete Phase II, including the conversion
of 26 applications, 3,275 programs and 6.9 million expanded lines of code; and
WHEREAS although the County has negotiated a one million dollar reduction
from the initial estimate of $7.6 million based on net lines of code, the
Information Technology Department has developed its own estimate of $4.6 million
based on actual experience in converting the Campaign Finance System,
Reimbursement System, and the District Court System; and

Technology manpower resources allocated in the 1998/1999 IT Master Plan, to
accomplish the Year 2000 conversion process in the most economical manner; and
WHEREAS under the proposed approach the volume of business allocated to
each vendor currently under contract would depend upon that vendor=s ability to
successfully complete previously assigned Year 2000 conversion tasks, thereby
leveraging the benefits of a competitive environment; and
WHEREAS the 1998/1999 IT Master Plan includes 14,500 hours of system
analyst/programmer time allocated to Year 2000 conversion activities, equivalent
to $1,232,500, the remaining portion of estimated project cost (40,000 hours/$3.4
million) is proposed to be allocated to several vendors currently under contract
with the IT Department; and
WHEREAS with adoption of the 1997 Year-End Closing Resolution, the Board of
Commissioners established a Fund Balance Designation of $2.5 million for Year
2000 Conversion expenses in 1998, leaving $900,000 to be absorbed by the

WHEREAS the County Executive recommends adoption of the proposed approach
as the most economical in achieving Year 2000 Compliance requirements.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners

during Fiscal Year 1998, amounting to $2,500,000, can be
transferred from the Designated Fund Balance for Year 2000
Conversion, which was created with the Fiscal Year 1997 Year End
Report.
5. Funding to cover the 10,600 hours needed in outside vendor hours
during Fiscal Year 1999, amounting to $900,000, will be absorbed
