Discussion
Pedernales Electric Cooperative, Inc. (PEC or Cooperative) originally approved an enterprise software agreement in December 2013 (2013-96) with National Information Solutions Cooperative (NISC). Subsequently, the Cooperative approved two extensions (2017-507 and 2021-006) with the last extension approved for a term through January 2026.
Enterprise software is essential for many of PEC’s internal functions. For continuity of these functions and the reasons discussed in Executive Session and on the confidential term sheet, PEC recommends extending the agreement with NISC for a three-year term.
Body
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COOPERATIVE that the Cooperative is authorized to execute a three (3) year extension and amendment for software services as discussed in Executive Session; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Chief Administrative Officer, or designee, is authorized to take all such actions as needed to implement this resolution.
