The School Board of Broward County, Florida
Meeting: Regular School Board Meeting :  E. Office of Deputy Superintendent, Operations  
E-3. Amend Agreement for SAP R/3 Software End-User License Agreement (C)  
June 19, 2007
Status: 
 
 

Quick Summary / Abstract
Approve the purchase of SAP licenses for SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe and SAP Learning Solution.

Lessons learned from our previous payroll implementation and the ongoing issues with payroll errors indicated that manual data entry errors were at the root of many issues with incorrect paychecks.  SAP Interactive Forms will automatically pre-populate forms with information from the SAP system, saving staff time in entering the information as well as reducing the risk of incorrect data.  SAP Learning Solution will allow the District to avoid customizing the Training and Events module to meet the Florida State Standards for Learning and the business requirements of the Human Resource Development (HRD) department.  See the Executive Summary for more detail.

This agreement has been approved as to form by the School Board Attorney.

The financial impact to the district for fiscal year 2006/2007 for this agreement will be $300,000.  The annual maintenance costs for the additional licenses will be $51,000, starting in fiscal year 2007/2008. The source of funding for the additional license costs is the BRITE project implementation budget.  The source of funding for the annual maintenance costs is the ETS general fund budget.
