Report
City Council Meeting: December 19, 2023
Agenda Item: 5.A
1 of 3
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Denise Anderson Warren, City Clerk, Records and Election Services
Department
Subject: Approval of Sixth Contract Modification with Carahsoft/Granicus for Electronic
Agenda Management Services
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a sixth modification to
Agreement 9784 (CCS) in the amount of $35,754 with Carahsoft/Granicus for an
agenda management software system for the Records and Election Services
Department. This will result in a 12-year amended agreement with a new total
amount not to exceed $243,500, with future year funding contingent on Council
budget approval; and
2. Adopt a finding of no possibility of significant effect pursuant to Section
15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
Summary
In 2013, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Carahsoft/IQM2
for an agenda management software system to support City staff’s process of preparing
City Council items, agendas and meeting packets. The current contract expires on
January 1, 2024, and staff recommends that Council authorize the City Manager to
negotiate and execute a sixth modification to Agreement 9784 (CCS) for 1 year, with
one 6-month renewal option, for a total modification amount of $35,754. This will result
in a contract not to exceed the amount of $243,500. Extending this contract will
maintain services while staff completes implementation of a new system by Winter 2024
and allow for a 6-month contingency budget.

Discussion
At its August 13, 2013, meeting, the Council authorized the City Manager to negotiate
and execute a five-year Professional Services Agreement with Carahsoft/IQM2 for an
agenda management system following a competitive procurement process. On May 6,
2014, the contract was modified administratively to revise the Scope of Services to
customize templates. During the term of the contract, IQM2 was acquired by Accela in
June 2014, and then Accela sold its system to Granicus in March 2018. The second
modification with Carahsoft/Granicus, continued service for one year, with three one -
year renewal options. The third modification exercised the third one-year renewal
option. The fourth and fifth modifications extended the contract while staff conducted an
RFP to replace the current agenda management system. The contract was executed
and the extension will allow time for implementation before transitioning to the new
system by Winter 2024.
Environmental Review
The proposed contract modification is exempt from the provision of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA
Guidelines (common sense exemption). The proposal is covered by the common sense
exemption which states that CEQA does not apply, “where it can be seen with certainty
that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on
the environment.” The modification would not result in any adverse physical
environmental effects as it encompasses software systems and services. Therefore,
the modification to the agreement is exempt from CEQA and no further environmental
review under CEQA is required.

AGENDA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM I REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
1.0 Goals and Objectives
The City of Santa Monica is seeking to implement an agenda management software system to assist with the
development of public policy presented to the City Council. The primary purpose of the agenda management
system is to assist City staff in the development of staff reports for City Council meetings over a long-range
period of time. The system will also be used to prepare agendas for other City boards and commissions.
The following Request for Proposal (RFP) is seeking qualified companies to submit detailed proposals covering
system functionality, experience, and abilities in implementing and maintaining an agenda management system.
2.0 Background
The City of Santa Monica is an international tourist destination coastal city located in the western portion of Los
Angeles County. The City serves a diverse population of roughly 90,000 residents and 15,000 businesses in
approximately 8.3 square miles. The City is a full-service Charter city, providing a wide array of services including
City-owned and operated transit services, solid waste services, a cemetery, general aviation airport and public
safety. The City is bordered by the City of Los Angeles on the north, south and east.
The Santa Monica City Council meets the second and fourth Tuesday of every month to adopt legislation,
provide direction to City administration and to promote the best interests of the community locally and with
other governmental agencies. The Council receives research and recommendations from City staff via staff
reports. A staff report is information presented to Council in support of a recommended policy decision. They
include analysis, alternatives and costs; serve as the official record of an issue and are the basis for Council's
decision-making.
The current process to develop a staff report for City Council is paper-driven and requires extensive coordination
and staff time. Once approved by the originator's supervisor, reports are sent from the originating department
to three reviewing departments. Reviewing departments have a week to simultaneously edit the report and
attachments. Originating departments receive feedback in three different formats -email, hand written
comments and comments in an excel spreadsheet. After three business days, signed hard copies of revised final
staff reports are delivered to the City Manager's Office. Five business days are allotted before all final staff
reports are approved. The City Clerk receives the final packet of staff reports from the City Manager's office,
makes 22 paper copies, delivers the packets to City Council members and posts the agenda with all staff reports
online.

Figure 1.1
• Originator: Author of a staff report.
• Department Shepherd: A point person who reviews, collects and submits staff reports and attachments.
• CAO: City Attorney's Office.
• CMO: City Manager's Office.
The City seeks a single web-based agenda management system to:
1. Manage the generation of staff reports and respective attachments.
2. Move staff reports throughout the organization via a workflow process.
3. Generate a meeting agenda and agenda packet including staff reports and all attachments.
An institutionalized and systematic process would allow for new internal efficiencies and more effective
resource management. It must deliver high quality staff reports the City Council has come to expect from City
staff. This system would also be used by the 19 City task forces, boards and commissions.
3.0 Scope of Work
The City of Santa Monica, herein after referred to as the City, has the right, at its sole discretion, to add, delete,
or change any specifications or requirements to meet its needs.
The City intends to acquire/use a web-based, enterprise-class software application to manage the City's agenda
management system. The software should provide tools for planning and managing all aspects of the staff
report development process, including but not limited to tracking all aspects of each Council meeting packet,
various staff reports and attachments; staff report preparation, review, and final submission via workflow;
electronic delivery of meeting packets; automated archiving of these public documents into the City's Laserfiche
repository; and tracking of Council actions, managing public speakers and taking minutes during Council
meetings.
The City is seeking to implement an agenda management system that generates a forward-looking report of all
Council meeting agendas and staff report items for a six month period of time.
The system should allow multiple users in various departments to use a workflow process to track and manage
reports, attachments, edits etc. as they move through the organization .

AGENDA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM I REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
The system should allow for staff report approvers to automatically delegate a colleague whens/he is away.
The system should have definable workflow capabilities to automate the staff report approval process. It should
also enable staff to customize report templates with standard formatting and language based on policy action to
assist writers and ensure recommendations correctly correspond with budget impacts.
The system should have interface capabilities to retrieve and/or store data from/into disparate systems i.e. send
final documents to the City's Laserfiche repository.
The system should generate a single bookmarked .pdf document of a completed meeting packet with
attachments for public use. The system should also generate that meeting packet with attachments in an HTML
based form available for public use.
The system should have the ability to export finalized agenda packets, inclusive of all elements (i.e. staff reports,
attachments, etc.) to the City's website in a manner consistent with the City's existing content policies. All items
should be machine-readable, and optimized for both desktop and print, including an "Offline" version of the
entire packet which allows users to downloa.d and review the full contents of a given agenda packet without the
need for an active Internet connection.
The interested and eligible vendor shall provide the City with a fully functional agenda management system with
customization requirements to meet the set of performance features described in Section 4.0 of this Request for
Proposal.

OAKS INITIATIVE NOTICE
NOTICE TO APPLICANTS, BIDDERS, PROPOSERS
AND OTHERS SEEKING DISCRETIONARY PERMITS, CONTRACTS, OR OTHER
BENEFITS FROM THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
Santa Monica's voters adopted a City Charter amendment commonly known as the
Oaks Initiative. It prohibits a public official from receiving specified personal benefits from a
person or entity after the official votes, or otherwise takes official action, to award a "public
benefit" to that person or entity. Examples of a "public benefit" include public contracts to
provide goods or services worth more than $25,000 or a land use approval worth more than
$25,000.
The Oaks Initiative requires the City to provide this note and information about the
Initiative's requirements. An information sheet on the Oaks Initiative is attached. You may
obtain a full copy of the Initiative's text from the City Clerk.
In order to facilitate compliance with the requirements of the Oaks Initiative, the City
compiles and maintains certain information. That information includes the name of any person
who is seeking a "public benefit." If the "public benefit" is sought by an entity, rather than an
individual person, the information includes the name of every: (a) trustee, (b) director, (c)
partner, (d) officer, or (e) ten percent interest in the entity. Therefore, if you are seeking a
"public benefit" covered by the Oaks Initiative, you must supply that information on the Oaks
Initiative Disclosure Form.

Re: Carahsoft's Response to the City of Santa Monica's Request for Proposal for Agenda Management
System
Ms. Gorman,
Carahsoft Technology Corp. appreciates the opportunity to respond to the City of Santa Monica's Request
for Proposal for an Agenda Management System.
Carahsoft is submitting as the IT Schedule 70 GSA Contract holder (GS-35F-0119Y) for IQM2 Inc. As a top
ranked GSA Schedule holder, Carahsoft has delivered best value solutions to our government clients for
over eight years including many local California governments for exactly the same requirements denoted in
this RFP. Additionally, IQM2 has conducted some mutual discovery through a demonstration overview with
members of the City of Santa Monica staff. As a result of these exercises, IQM2 believes that our
Legislative Management platform is uniquely suited to ensure program success and swift user adoption for
the City.
Carahsoft is in receipt of Amendments 1 and 2.
Please feel free to contact me directly at 703.889.9701/katie.dyer@carahsoft.eom or Craig Abad
703.871.8501/cpa@carahsoft.eom with any questions or communications that will assist the City of Santa
Monica in the evaluation of our response. This proposal is valid for 90 days from the date of submission.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Katie Dyer
Government Account Representative

Provide a summary of the proposal and demonstrate that the company understands the project, including a
general approach responding to the City's requirements. This should also include an introduction to the
Bidder as well as the name of a contact person.
Through prior demonstrations and process discovery with some City stakeholders, IQM2 understands the
nature of this project and can truly and confidently say that not only is IQM2 capable of quickly meeting
these requirements and expectations. IQM2 fully believes the proposed solution will exceed the
expectations, from both a functionality and swift user adoption standpoint. IQM2 dimensioned areas of the
City of Santa Monica's current processes that were not mentioned as requirements which enhanced IQM2
functionality would deliver incredible efficiency and time savings returns.
Furthermore IQM2 is providing innovation for governments across the country that is typically not seen with
the simple, limited solutions that have traditionally been used. There is a large delta between IQM2's
functionality and basic application structure of the other providers, particularly for larger governments or
those concerned with true governing board automation work flow that allows for unlimited, chronological
and simultaneous work flow and tracking. Cities the size of Santa Monica need the more robust and
innovative functionality IQM2 provides. The simple posting of shells, simple browser-based, basic workflow
or trying to make disparate platforms stemming from acquisition or multi-vendor solutions work together is
not enough. Please see below for some distinctive and unique differentiators:
• PDF Agendas -In addition to standard web and e-agendas, IQM2 generates full PDF agenda
packets with page numbering and watermarking. The PDF packets can be easily printed, if
desired, and saved for offline viewing. Other solutions rely entirely on a web agenda and
generating and printing a full PDF packet is not possible. It is very important to think about the
large ramifications of this across the City of Santa Monica in regards to use and technology.
• IQM2 Works Offline -If the internet goes down, IQM2's software continues to work offline, which
is an impressive for people who understand decision making points. In addition to web
functionality, IQM2 provides a product that is critical to ensuring that if the internet goes down or is
slow, it does not stop a meeting or create confusion and citizen problems. The minutes, voting and
time-stamping can still be recorded during the meeting and the board members can still view their
PDF agendas. This proves to be a big point for larger cities who deal with more complex topics and
issues that come with their size.
• IQM2 Streaming Future Scalability-MediaTraq contains live and on-demand streaming of the
City of Santa Monica's meetings with agenda item linking and search capability, as well as
automated Minutes Maker module. Other solutions use unrefined inserts which can be
unsophisticated and creates a manual and time consuming process or are video streaming focused
and use disparate agenda management programs they purchased and are trying to integrate.
IQM2 has made a special offering to the City to migrate their current video streaming processes
and will save the City quite a bit of money while greatly improving their streaming services. For
example, IQM2 offers innovative streaming functionality that does not exist with any other
government streaming company. A couple examples of these improvements would be HD live and
on demand streaming for cross platform, as well as DVR capabilities with great utility for this in
government meetings.

• IQM2 Search -IQM2 searches all documents and content. This allows any user to search for
keywords inside a supporting document. IQM2 also offers Federated Search which will allow the
City of Santa Monica to search all other clients' public websites in one search.
• Free Historical Data -IQM2 will migrate over the City of Santa Monica's historical meeting
information to compile a complete legislative and searchable database for the City.
• IQM2 PDF Printer -The built-in PDF printer allows any user to easily attach information to agenda
items from any application just like printing to paper. The PDF's are searchable and optimized for
smaller file sizes. No other solutions contain such functionality and rely heavily on the users to
manually export or convert their attachments.
• Full Microsoft Word Integration -The proposed solution will allow the City of Santa Monica to
easily use MS Word for editing and entering documents. Because of this, IQM2 can copy and
paste without losing formatting. This is viewed as an incredible difference by larger counties with
more agenda items and attachments.
• Integrated Board Member Profiles -All board member attendance and voting history can be
indexed, viewable and searched through the web portal.
• Approvals & Signatures -IQM2 has a completely customizable approval and chronological and
simultaneous workflow system. IT includes sophisticated e-Signatures for signing documents. All
other solutions contain has a simple approval process but cannot support the level of complex
workflow IQM2 can. Full e-signatures are offered for either now or in the future.
• E-Boardroom & IQM2 Minutes Maker-lQM2's Electronic & Touch Voting gives public guidance
through the meeting, Automatic Page Turning, Sticky Notes and internet independent.
• IQM2 Free On-going Training & Template/Workflow Configuration -IQM2 provides free
ongoing web-based training. This is very useful for bringing on new employees or using more
functionality in the software.
• Customized Dashboards -Dashboards are easy to use and basic Board Member views are
shown as opposed to the back office functionality that while unequivocally separate us, may not
have been important to the Board Members.
• IQM2 Letter Factory -The proposed solution can automatically notify staff members,
departments, citizens, State Agencies or any other recipients when agenda items are approved or
discussed at meetings with a simple click using the City of Santa Monica's own personal template
language and verbiage.
• IQM2 Work Planning -IQM2 includes a true work planning utility to assign, track and report on
follow up task resulting from decisions made at meetings.

IQM2 unequivocally believes that there are no solutions will be able to truly support the back office
workflow process the City of Santa Monica is defining while delivering the innovative public and staff facing
innovation we know is important to the City of Santa Monica's goals .. With efficiency and meeting
effectiveness in mind, IQM2 can configure the Board or user Dashboards to make navigations simple and
easy. That being said, the collaboration, workflow, tracking and reporting is absolutely imperative for an
agency of the City of Santa Monica's size, IQM2's back office scalability tools will allow the City of Santa
Monica to add on existing functionality as it so chooses. Due to IQM2's robust functionality, the system is
known for being flexible and it does not make the City of Santa Monica conform to the process; IQM2
configures to the City of Santa Monica's. This is a monumental difference between IQM2 and the other
applications in this market.

Please provide complete responses to the following:
Agenda Management System
1. Describe the proposed agenda management system.
MinuteTraq is the Legislative and Agenda Management framework of IQM2's Government Meeting
Platform. Please refer to the product overview below for more information on the proposed system.
MinuteTrnq™
N
MinuteTraq is the framework of IQM2's Open Meeting Platform. It provides complete functionality for
managing all meeting documents, reviewing processes and procedures, creating agenda packet, creating
minutes, compiling and distributing post-meeting letters, and web publishing and search functions. It is a
powerful software module that will allow the City of Palatine to facilitate all of its meeting needs, from pre-
meeting scheduling to post-meeting publishing and to all the information-gathering steps in between. It
offers a simple yet customizable set of functions that will make the Village's meeting workflow process
more efficient.
The MinuteTraq smart-client is built on the most up-to-date Microsoft .NET technology. The program
requires Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 installation on the PC. This framework is installed by default on
Windows XP or if you are installing the automatic Microsoft Windows Updates.
Recommended Specifications: 1 GHz Pentium or Better, 2 GB of RAM or Better, 1 GB Storage Space,
Windows XP or Higher, .NET Framework 3.5, MS Word 2003 or higher.
The following key components and processes will benefit the City in cost and time savings:
Centralized Document Database: Will consolidate the City information processes into one location, vastly
reducing time on information management, search and retrieval.
Workflow, Routing, and Review Process: Incredibly simple but sophisticated tool for driving efficiency
and managing expectations. The program's wizard-based interface allows for department members to
monitor processes, maintaining accountability of information.
Attachments and Importing: Program cross-references all related documents and allows the City to
collect all information of a given topic from the internal system quickly and easily without printing and
scanning.
PDF Printer: MinuteTraq includes an integrated PDF Printer that allows users to retrieve information and
reports from any computer system throughout the organization as long as it can print regardless of file type.
The PDF Printer allows users to print from any program to this virtual printer named "MinuteTraq" instead of
printing to paper. The built-in PDF printer simplifies attaching information from other programs, just click
Print, choose the "MinuteTraq" printer and the output is automatically converted to PDF format and
imported into MinuteTraq as an attachment. The City can easily mark the attachment as public, and it will
also be published on the web portal when the agenda is created which means no more scanning and
printing.

Carnhsoffs to the of Santa Monica
Document Generation: Produces all meeting-related documents in one step, eliminating time consuming
redundancy such as cutting and pasting. It creates meeting packets customizable to the City's needs with
agendas, agenda summaries, schedules and all other associated attachments, all with a consistent
heading for professional look.
Fast Re-Generation Technology'": MinuteTraq has built-in Fast Regeneration Technology, so the
documents generated from MinuteTraq can be easily modified and regenerated. An agenda packet that
needs to be regenerated after adding or removing a couple items can be compiled in seconds. Other
products without IQM2's unique Fast Regeneration Technology TM can take hours to build packets even
after small changes are made.
History Tracking and Audit Trail: MinuteTraq will keep a complete history of all meeting topics from the
moment they a.re prepared, submitted, reviewed, added to an agenda, voted on, tabled to other meetings,
passed through committees for review and more. Each meeting topic or attachment will allow for comments
to be added to the history. The meeting topic history screen will provide a complete history of the topic itself
along with all of the attachments. The meeting history will track each agenda item and the exact page
number where it appears in the minutes with the comments and action or vote record at the meeting.
The audit trail allows all the changes that are made to the document to be tracked in a log. Each user that
makes a change can indicate the reason for changing it and add a comment. Users can trigger actions like
sending an email notice, resetting the approval process or creating a new revision of the topic or document.
Revision Tracking and Comparing: MinuteTraq tracks changes to meeting topics and documents and will
allow the City to compare what has been altered and shows the user who made changes. All changes will
be highlighted with bubbles specifying the changes.
Information Sharing and Delivery: Communicates key information to the intended recipients effectively
allowing meeting decisions and tasks to take action. Email-based communication and online postings are
notified to proper channels in a way that is easily tracked and automated for accountability.
Meeting Capture and Streaming: Receives and organizes input on all data with regards to minutes, votes,
discussion and actions and modifies into a format that facilitates public sharing. In conjunction with
MediaTraq™ module, video streaming can be indexed and referenced by topic and matched with
timestamps on meeting minutes.
Task Follow-up and Progress Tracking: The integrated task tracking function in MinuteTraq™ will allow
the City ease of tasks and directives will be acted upon from meeting to meeting. No longer will meeting
time be wasted going over dropped responsibilities and missed tasks due to lack of follow-up.
Free Ongoing Training: Part of IQM2's value added Support Services is the IQM2 Training Academy
which offers free ongoing training. The City's users can pre-register for weekly training sessions or request
training topics that are important to them. These training sessions are conducted by IQM2 Software and
Technical Specialists. IQM2 believes in ensuring that the IQM2 client family has all the necessary tools and
support to enhance their organizations. The City will also be able to utilize the on line IQM2 Support Center
and public Knowledge Base for solutions and articles, downloading files, and login to the Self-Service
Portal for case tracking.

2. Explain if the system can maintain bookmarks and links when exporting to the web where links
exist in documents.
This is basic functionality in the proposed system.
3. Explain how the automated process for minutes and follow up actions are prepared and/or
populated and tracked from the discussion and source documents.
This is easy functionality for IQM2's proposed system. With a simple click, pre-configured minutes
templates are populated. Additionally, follow-up actions can be configured to automatically drive
IQM2's Work and Project Planning functionality that can track and assign projects to staff. This
works in conjunction with IQM2's letter factory to automatically drive notification of meeting
decisions/outcomes to various third parties with pre-setup verbiage and templates. The way IQM2
indexes /tracks data by linking all topics and supporting documents by topic and/or project makes
this very simple and powerful.
4. Explain what functionality is provided to manage contracts and professional service agreements
that result from decisions on staff reports presented to Council.
IQM2 provides a unique and special financial and budgetary tracking component of the proposed
platform that allows for very granular fiscal tracking but can also be used to manage contracts as
they relate to decisions or follow up activities stemming from the Council meetings or decisions.

This is one of the unique benefits of utilizing IQM2's end to end platform which also includes the
MediaTraq government video streaming solution and electronic voting system, eBoardroom. The
seamless linking of meeting data to video is extremely beneficial. IQM2 has also taken government
video streaming to a far more innovative level with cross platform, HD live and on-demand
streaming with DVR functionality.
6. Discuss possible conversion/migration process of old agendas, minutes and reporls.
As a special incentive to the City of Santa Monica, IQM2 will migrate the City's old agendas,
minutes and reports for free. IQM2 believes this makes for a more powerful Legislative Database
and drives efficiency on many fronts, including public information requests and data mining.
7. Please walk through the process, from generation of a staff reporl to the creation of a public
document.
Since IQM2 will pre-configure all of the City's templates, staff report templates and workflow steps,
it is a simple process:
1. Designated Department staff members select their appropriate category and enters in basic
information.
2. The request then follows whatever simultaneous or chronological workflow and routing process
desired, if any.
3. Approved staff reports flow to the Clerk Lock, at which point the agenda can be automatically
generated and published with a click. This will automatically post the approved document to
the portal and deliver the document to pre-determined users who may want to receive the
document or information in a different medium.
Please note that there is a lot of other ad hoc functionality available if desired, including simple
drag and drop functionality to re-order agenda and last minute or walk on request. Regardless the
generation or re-generation is a simple click.
8. Explain the system's reporling functionality, specifically, how to generate a forward-looking reporl
of al/ council meeting agendas and staff reporl items for a six month period of time.
IQM2 is known for furnishing very detailed and granular reporting tools that is made easy by the
way it looks at data. The report below is a basic one-simply enter in the time frames desired and
run report.

9. Explain how a staff report approver will delegate a colleague when s/he is away.
This is simple "Designee Setting" that can be changed by a click by those users with the right
permission levels.
10. Explain how a staff report approver can edit a staff report.
This is quite simple and in fact speaks to one of our truly differentiating qualities. IQM2 is the only
solution that offers a full integration with MS Word to allow users to use all of the formatting
functionality while in the system. Even if users forget to save, IQM2's system automatically takes
care of this. The staff report approver can do one of two things: make the change themselves by
modifying the staff report in the system or reject the item and provide the changes they want to
see. The proposed system can capture each change in the system for traceability and tractability
purposes should anybody ever be inclined to see who changed what and when.
11. Demonstrate with screen shots how the end user portal wlll_ exist on the City's website:
http:llwww.smgov.net!departmentslc/erklagendas.aspx.
Please see below for a real world example for a few local California governments.
• City of San Bernardino, California: Meeting Portal
sanbemardinocityca.iqm2.com/
• Meeting Portal -The County of Santa Clara, California
sccgov.iqm2.com/
IQM2 is often informed by governments who migrate after investing in other agenda management
or video streaming products that the way information is presented on the web is far superior to
what they were using or have seen frorn the other solutions.
12. How does the system add additional templates or users after the initial installation of the software
and will it disrupt the system whlle they are being added?
This is a simple process and will not disrupt system in either case. The City has two options:
1. The City can call lQM2 to build a template free of charge.
2. The City build it itself by simply clicking New Template.
13. What are the costs for adding additional templates? Additional users?
In the special model IQM2 is offering the City of Santa Monica, there are no additional costs for
additional templates and no additional costs for additional users and no data storage limits.
14. Do you provide integration with Lasertiche? If so, what are estimated costs and functionality
options?
Yes, and there is no cost. IQM2 has built useful functionality that allows this to occur with

Packet Pg. 93 Attachment: Contract 9784 (5605 : Extension of Contract with Carahsoft/Granicus for Agenda Mgmt Software)
Carnhsoft' s to the of Santa Monka
Laserfiche, as well as other document management companies.
15. Who make up the implementation team and what is their relevant experience setting up similar
systems in peer institutions?
The following Implementation Project team is comprised of individuals who have least five years of
software training. Each of them have managed systems and projects with larger local governments
in California.
16. Explain any minutes preparation functionality available with your system or as an add-on module.
The IQM2 Minutes Maker tool is included at no additional cost. MinuteTraq's Agenda Wizard and
the Minutes Maker tools work hand-in-hand. The only difference between the two is that the
Minutes Maker is looking for actual information, vote records and Verbatim or summary comments.
The IQM2 Minute Maker tool was designed to be used live at the meeting by a clerk or staff
member. The entering of vote results, attendance records and follow up actions are swiftly and
efficiency completed. This empowers the clerk/staff to easily keep pace with the meeting to
accurately record all items. The IQM2 Minutes Maker is frequently used along with MediaTraq, the
streaming video module, it can be used as a transcriber allowing verbatim notes to be completed
after the meeting as well. The video is automatically time stamped and indexed to allow the
transcriber to be able to move from item to item quickly and efficiently. The approval of the minutes
can be configured in a variety of ways as IQM2's intention is that the system will be tailored to how
the City does business. For example, if the City approves minutes before a meeting in a closed
session, the system can be set up to do so, if minutes are approved at a meeting after a vote, it
can be set up in that fashion as well. Initiating an audio-only clip can be easily accomplished by
extract the audio from the video.
Hardware and Software
17. What web browsers/versions does your system supporl?
IQM2 has yet to find a web browser the proposed system cannot support.

Carahsoft' s of Santa Monica
18. What is the suggested hardware setver configuration and operating system?
The IQM2 meeting portal is 100% browser based. Internal users utilize the IQM2 Smart Client
which works just like a browser over the internet using HTTPS. But it looks and works like a
Microsoft Office product with toolbars, menus and none of the issues commonly experienced by
browser based products, including add-on tools, errors posting pages, viruses and spyware. The
Smart Client was designed specifically so users can work on documents with Microsoft Word
supporting all the rich features the MS Office suite offers.
In addition, it allows IQM2 to provide advanced functionality like a built-in PDF Printer, data caching
for superior network performance and an easier interaction with the City's local file and document
management systems. The Smart Client only requires an internet connection, just like browsers,
and will automatically update itself. The Smart Client can be pushed out through a network via MSI
or Click-Once deployment and only requires the .NET 2.0 Framework.
The IQM2 Smart Client offers all the pros of browser based applications with none of the cons and
allows IQM2 to provide a user friendly solution for Meeting Management available today. This is
typically a significant differentiating point of the IQM2 platform and why governments who have
migrated from older products are shocked at the speed with which user adoption and migration
occurs.
19. What are the complete hardware specifications?
Please refer to Question #21. Furthermore, the server hardware used by IQM2 uses redundant
disk arrays (RAID) for disk failure
20. What are the requirements for the workstations that use this hardware or software?
Please refer to Question #21.
21. What are the minimum PC requirements to operate software?
Please see below for minimum PC and work station requirements:
• Computer/Processor Minimum: 600 MHz Processor
• Recommended: 1 GHz and 2GHz for Clerk
• Memory Recommended 1 GB RAM
• 2 GB for Win 7
• Hard Disk Space Recommended 1 GB
• Operating System Microsoft Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista, Win 7(32 & 64 bit)
22. If proposed system is not Saas, what are the recommended setver and database requirements?
IQM2 operates under a Saas model.

23. How are workflowlnotifications handled? What ancillary systems are used to supporl the product
(i.e. Microsoft Exchange? What version?).
IQM2 recommends the City use the full integration with MS Word that the City is running Word
2000 (Word 9.0) or greater.
Security and Administrative Functions
24. Explain version control with your proposed system.
IQM2 schedules a Version Enhancement release for each quarter. They are free of charge and
occur automatically unless this is not desired. They do not require professional services or
involvement from the City of Santa Monica IT staff, unless desired. IQM2 schedules training with
the users to review the enhancements and new functionality.
25. Explain archiving of revision history of information.
Revision tracking is one of the differentiating aspects of IQM2's platform. With a single click, users
can choose any document or item and not only see all changes by who and when down to granular
level, including date, time and person, but compare each document, if desired, on the screen.
Clients who have migrated from all other platforms share they have never seen this level of detail
or functionality before. It is extremely useful in a variety of situations.
26. Indicate any system archiving capability (e.g. ability to move on-line data to off-line storage).
The IQM2 solution includes the IQM2 Data Archive Wizard which empowers City staff members
with the requisite permission levels to archive data and move it off-line at their discretion or at pre-
determined times.
27. Describe backup and restore features.
All application data is encrypted, replicated and backed up in real-time to redundant datacenters
across a private network using delta copy technology. Each customer database is independently
backed up hourly and then replicated. Additionally, there is a nightly backup made to location.
28. Explain the retrieval, search and query functionality of proposed product, including capability of full
text, keyword, and multiple file extension searching. This would extend to minutes, reporls (both
formal and adhoc) and agendas.
The IQM2 search functionality is another differentiating feature of the IQM2 platform. Full text
search, keyword and multiple file extension searches are empowered. This also searches all media
files as well as any document or supporting file type. IQM2 also offers Federated Search.
29. What is the maximum file size for individual attachments (ensuring no latency occurs)?
There is no limit on file size.

Administrators and End-User.
Please refer to the Implementation Plan and Training Guide in the Attachments section of this
response.
33. Discuss the process for configuration including the various roles required for implementation and
support.
This requirement is simple as the responsibilities fall mainly on IQM2. IQM2 breaks these down by
user roles and then discusses permission levels and desired access during the Discovery Phase.
The bulk of the users fall into the preparer role and adoption is immediate since they simply need
to learn how to click. Then IQM2 has the Power User Role which is typically in the Clerks
department and they often have super user access and privileges. IQM2 also has approver roles
which often overlap with preparer and they have Council role views.
Public Access
34. Explain whether the agenda management package is equipped to allow members of the public to
digitally sign up for public comment during or before a public meeting.
Yes, IQM2's eBoardroom offers both Virtual sign up before the meeting or during, as well as kiosk
based sign up at the meeting.

Carahsoft' s to the of Santa Monica
The Bidder must provide detailed costs for the system delineating any configuration, setup, and
implementation costs from system usage costs. The City prefers a plan that offers unlimited utilization of
the system.
IQM2 is offering the City of Santa Monica, California its special No-Risk Model.
• No Upfront Costs
• Training and Implementation included
• Unlimited Users and Meeting Groups
• Unlimited Storage
• 24/7 Support by IQM2 Software Experts
• Unlimited Access to the IQM2 Training Academy, including live on-ongoing weekly training
sessions conducted by IQM2 software experts. Additionally the City of Santa Monica can request
their specific topics and areas for IQM2 to conduct special training, including new user training,
specific topic training; new elected official training, etc ...
• City can stop at any time if they do not see the returns
IQM2 is confident in offering the optimal Legislative Management solution for the City of Santa Monica.
Furthermore, this places the responsibility fully on us to ensure the City's satisfaction and success each
and every day.
The vendor must provide a detailed itemized cost breakdown of the following categories:
1. Software licensing and annual renewals
The cost for Minute Traq, which is the component of the platform that these requirements are
specifying, is very simple and straightforward. Due to the special No Risk model IQM2 is offering
the City of Santa Monica, the cost for MinuteTraq is $1,377.85 per month. All upfront costs have
been waived and there are no hidden or ancillary fees. This includes full formal training and
implementation as well as ongoing 24/7 support.
Important Note: IQM2 will also incent the City of Santa Monica to migrate their current video
streaming program currently being furnished by another provider and use IQM2's innovative
MediaTraq tools by reducing the current video streaming costs by 50%. These saving could now
be used to help substantially fund this initiative. IQM2 will also migrate historical documents and
videos for free. This has proved extremely fiscally rewarding for the few governments we offered
this to.
2. Professional services for installation/configuration, travel costs to be included
There are no costs for professional services for installation/configuration. Travel will be billed at
cost.

Carahsoft's to the of Santa Monica
3. On-site training ( specify costs for system administrator training and end-user training)
There is no cost for on-site training (excluding travel costs) if necessary. IQM2's business goal is
swift user adoption to drive a long term relationship and its intent is not to focus on frontend
professional services revenue that causes complacency. IQM2 often hears from migrated
governments that they were particularly frustrated with the upfront license and start 0 up costs they
were required to pay and which never materialized into what they were promised. This is the same
reason IQM2 offers monthly terms which we fill price fix for a period of time, if desired.
4. Rates for additional trainings
There will be no cost for additional trainings. IQM2 is providing the City of Santa Monica access to
the IQM2 Training Academy for unlimited free on-going training. This is staffed by IQM2 software
experts and the City of Santa Monica can request the training topics they desire at their discretion.
5. Fee schedules for trainers and hourly rates for customization of product
This does not apply to IQM2's pricing model.
6. Annual service and maintenance for five years
The standard fee of $1,377.85 per month will be the cost per month for five years.
7. All other miscellaneous costs not listed above
There are no miscellaneous costs for the proposed solution.
The City reserves the right to select any or all of the components above, or that are included in the
proposal.

User Roles
IQ-·
JNHllHiENT MEETING
MAN1\\J[M[NT
For the purposes of planning IQM2 will categorize the users of the system into the following roles:
• Power Users (PU) -The Power Users will be involved throughout the ENTIRE training
process. They are involved in the initial setup decisions, training and become the Internal
Experts of the IQM2 so~ware.
• Agenda Clerk (AC) -The Agenda Preparer builds and posts the final agenda for a meeting.
They are always in the Power Users group but there are sessions that are ONLY for the
Agenda Preparers.
• Minutes Clerk (MC) -The Minutes Preparer inputs the votes and comments of the meeting
and then generates the Minutes. They are always part of the Power Users group but there
are sessions that are ONLY for the Minutes Preparer.
• Project Manager (PM) -In larger organizations there may be a project manager who is
responsible for coordinating the project and may become the Internal Trainer. They are
always in the Power User group.
• Submitters & Approvers (SA) -Submitters are the users within the departments that are
submitting agenda items. Approvers are typically the users and managers within the
workflow that are approving agenda items prior to them being added to the agenda. The
Power User group may sometimes contain 1 or 2 key submitters or approvers.
• Board Members (BM) -The Board Members may want to be trained in how to access the
agendas, search, log in to get confidential information and make sticky notes.
• Information Technology (IT) -A technical individual from the City is typically used when
something needs to be installed or the Website updated or for MediaTraq network settings
need to be set up.
• Audio/ Video (AV) -The A/V person is responsible for the audio and video equipment.
For MediaTraq, the encoder needs to be plugged into the Audio and Video equipment. This
person can often be an outside consultant who initially installed the equipment (for
professional setups) or may be someone who simply operates the camera equipment during
the meetings.

M2 Open Suite Platform Implementation
Advanced Implementation Steps
Phase I: Remote -Preparation and Testing
• Laying the Groundwork
IQM2.com
In the beginning of the implementation process a number of essential steps must take place.
IQM2 will first conduct a Turnover Meeting to introduce the Implementation Team and to begin
the process. The meeting's discussions will start to define a Charter for the upcoming project. It
is important to establish what the City's vision is regarding the outcome of the project. Once a
vision is defined IQM2 and the City can lay out the objectives and develop an agreed upon
timeline. The City's vision will also help to confirm the deliverables so that expectations can be
met. IQM2 and the City will discuss in detail the roles of both sides of the project; how IQM2 staff
will lead the project and transition this lead to the City's project team over the course of the
project.
• Appoint Project Team
Establishing a Project Team is a very important step.
• Executive Sponsor: The most important member of the team is the Executive
Sponsor. He/she will be someone from the executive staff who will oversee the project
and provide firm guidance when necessary.
• Project Champion: Having the right Project Champion is key as this is the owner of
the project on a day to day basis. The Project Champion will be the go-to person
throughout the project.
• Project Team: The Project Team should be assembled to support the Scope and
Objectives of the project. The number of members and their origin will be determined
by the project goals.
• Physical Environment
The workspace environment will also need to be addressed.
1. Will there be a training room?
2. Will there be hardware for each participant to use in training?
3. Will there be access to necessary staff throughout training periods?
4. Will there be the use of a presenter PC (laptop) and a projector?
IQM2 will need to set up a communications plan so all methods of communication are known by
all.
1. What is the preferred method of communication; email, phone, etc.?
2. How will IQM2 and the City work together remotely; go to-meeting, Connect,
etc.?
IQM2 and the City will need to share all contact information to ensure there will be no
disconnects. The implementation methodology will be documented later in this guide as well as
Page 2
5.A.c
Packet Pg. 124 Attachment: Contract 9784 (5605 : Extension of Contract with Carahsoft/Granicus for Agenda Mgmt Software)
M2 Open Suite Platform Implementation IQM2.com
in the Implementation Schedule Outline. The project timeline will be defined in Microsoft Project
and displayed in a number of formats.
• Quality Plan
The best way to ensure a successful implementation is to plan the necessary time and stick to
the plan. After identifying the team we will assess availability and create a project calendar.
When resources are assigned to the calendar they will be put all together in MS Project to create
the end to end implementation timeline. Adherence to this timeline is essential for a successful
project.
A high level demo of the MinuteTraq system is done utilizing the sales demo system. The
purpose of this is to engage all members of the Project Team by allowing them to see where they
fit in the process. All too often the Project Team members are not part of the buying decision and
will not have seen the system prior to now.
• Risk Plan
Even with the best of plans, every undertaking has an element of risk. The goal is to minimize the
risk factors to maximize success. There are some known risk factors and of course there are
those that come up along the way. The common ones will be identified to work towards avoiding
them; any of the others will be dealt with as they arise.
• Plan Acceptance
At the completion of each phase of the implementation process IQM2 and the City will need to go
through the judgment criteria specific to that section and determine if the project is ready to move
on to the next phase. When that is accomplished, IQM2 and the City will complete an acceptance
form stating the agreement and listing any remaining stipulations. This is also a good time to
review the upcoming phase and make sure the expectations are realistic and adjust proactively if
necessary.
Phase II: (Core Group) -System Testing and Configuration
• Build Deliverables
Prior to start, information is sent to IQM2 based on what was requested in the Implementation
Schedule Appendix. The agency will be created with some configuring and information input into
the system. The rest will be done as part of the training process.
• Review Deliverables
A Kick-Off meeting will be held so all project members have the opportunity to meet. A demo of
the system is done to show the Project Team the status of the agency and for the first time they
see their agency specific data in action. All necessary changes are made to make sure all
requirements are met.

Packet Pg. 125 Attachment: Contract 9784 (5605 : Extension of Contract with Carahsoft/Granicus for Agenda Mgmt Software)
M2 Open Suite Platform Implementation IQM2.com
• Quality Management
To ensure that the project stays on track and that any new or unresolved issues are taken care
of, the Project Champion will constantly monitor progress and compliance.
• Change Review
If and when any new issues or concerns arise, they will be documented by the Project Champion
and reviewed with the team for possible solutions. First the team will pursue the easiest, most
logical solution; which often is to make slight changes to the process to make current application
features fit. This is the fastest, most cost effective solution. When current features cannot satisfy
the need for change IQM2 and the City will investigate the possibility of enhancements.
Enhancements, when available, are time consuming and can negatively impact progress.
Whatever method is used to satisfy the issue, it must be approved by all those necessary.
• Risks Assessment
Whenever a deviation to the plan takes place, whether it is a timing issue being rescheduled or a
process issue being resolved, the overall effects it will have on the project must be assessed. If
IQM2 and the City accept the proposed change, it is important to investigate the negative effects
it will have on the project versus the positive effects it will have on the issue. Upon weighing this
out, the team will make a decision to accept or deny the risk.
• Issue Management
To minimize problems when issues arise IQM2 and the City need to have a plan in place for
resolution. First the team needs to investigate process change and then consider application
changes. Being open to compromise and/or alternatives is the soundest way to go forward as it
allows resolution with little or no negative impact to the project plan. Of course, first and
foremost, the resolution must satisfy all parties.
• Acceptance Management
Once the agency has been built and configured, tried and tested, JQM2 and the City will sign off
that all conditions have been met. The sign off will show agreement with the agency configuration
as well as accepting the design and processes as those that the staff will be trained on. Any
stipulations to the above will be listed and resolved in an agreed upon manner.
Phase Ill: Remote -Final Refinements
• Stipulations
When the configuration process is complete and signed off, there are times when stipulations are
part of the process. These are corrections or updates that we agree to complete prior to the
onsite training in Phase IV.
• Final Changes
All final changes to the process need to be aired and instituted. Once IQM2 and the City move on
from this point, there shouldn't be any more change, so as to be consistent with the material in
Page4
5.A.c
Packet Pg. 126 Attachment: Contract 9784 (5605 : Extension of Contract with Carahsoft/Granicus for Agenda Mgmt Software)
M2 Open Suite Platform Implementation IQM2.com
training. When the users are presented with the MinuteTraq system for training, the configuration
and process should be locked down.
• Review Plans
A last review will be done on all plans to make sure they still fit. Although IQM2 and the City will
most likely not want to change anything from this point on, it's best to take one last look and
weigh any possible changes versu.s the risk.
Phase IV: User Training and Go Parallel
• Sub-Phase 1
During this Sub-Phase IQM2 will be showing everyone involved in the upcoming training a demo
of the system as configured so they will understand what the goals are and where they fit in.
Following the demo there will be a quick session with the system administrators and managers to
mal<e sure they are prepared to support the system. IQM2 will then begin the first submitter
training. The key focus of the submitter training will be creating legislative files. Topics ranging
from selecting the proper template to submitting the file will be covered. IQM2 begins with a
simple, basic file and end with a complex entry including all available features.
• Sub-Phase 2
IQM2 begins this Sub-Phase by repeating the submitter training and then focusing on creating
agendas. By utilizing the legislative files created by the submitters, our first agenda will be
created. The feature in Minute Traq for creating agendas is called the Agenda Wizard. The
Agenda Wizard allows for the creation of default outlines that are specific to a meeting group or
type. The City will learn how to create these default outlines which ultimately will provide for the
automation of the agenda process. Once the agenda outlines are created they are generated to
a finished agenda printout. To complete the process the City will learn how to publish to the web
portal and distribute copies to predetermined distribution lists.
• Sub-Phase 3
The next step in the process is to record all of the happenings of the meeting, which include the
roll call, meeting comments and the vote results. The Minutes Maker is the tool in MinuteTraq •
that manages this part of the process. The City will learn all of its features through to the point of
publishing and distributing; which is basically the same as in the Agenda Wizard. The second
part of this Phase will be used to enter parallel data for an upcoming meeting. This will allow the
City to use the MinuteTraq meeting process with real data and compare it to an actual meeting.
Based on the success of this the City will be able to begin to focus on a live meeting.
• Sub-Phase 4
During this Phase of training IQM2 will check in with all people and departments that were
trained to make sure that everyone is comfortable with the system and that no questions remain
unanswered.

Packet Pg. 127 Attachment: Contract 9784 (5605 : Extension of Contract with Carahsoft/Granicus for Agenda Mgmt Software)
M2 Open Suite Platform Implementation IQM2.com
• Training Completion Acceptance
As IQM2 concludes the training and have confirmed with all parties that IQM2 has achieved its
training goals, IQM2 training staff will do a sign off that demonstrates Training Completion
Acceptance.
Phase V: Remote -Parallel Meeting and Go Live Preparation
• Parallel Meeting
The Parallel Meeting involves dual entry of data for an upcoming meeting. The meeting
documents are created both in MinuteTraq and by the current process. If the MinuteTraq
documents have successfully succeeded the current process IQM2 and the City will go to the
meeting with those. If the documents still need further refinement, IQM2 and the City will go to
the meeting with the legacy documents and make sure any issues are corrected prior to the next
meeting.
• Status Meeting
Following the Parallel Meeting a Status Meeting (conference call) is held to discuss the meeting
outcome. If necessary there will be another Parallel Meeting, but in most cases IQM2 and the
City will be able to move on to going live with the system. At this point IQM2 and the City agree
on the Go Live Meeting date.
• Start Go Live
Starting the Go Live process basically puts the agency 100% in MinuteTraq mode; there is no
reason to go back and produce any documents using the legacy method. If any issues come up
they will be addressed immediately so there are no voids in the system.
• Web Portal Link
Once live documents are created and are part of the system, the next step is to make them
available to the public via the IQM2 Web Portal. The Web Portal is a place where they can view
meeting documents by the calendar, search for resolutions, ordinances, and any other type of
meeting document and if media is available, search and view that. There are a number of ways
that the Web Portal can be seamlessly integrated with any current web site.
Completion Review -Live Status
• Status Call with Project Te_am
As Live Meetings are produced, questions and possible issues may arise. For that reason, IQM2
and the City will plan a follow up Status Meeting to make sure if any of these things do exist, that
they are answered or resolved in a satisfactory manner and timeframe. IQM2 also appreciates
feedback and would like to hear the success stories from a new, live customer.

The M2 Suite has many options and functions available, and many of these may not have been
originally purchased and/or addressed as they are advanced features of the system. Once
MinuteTraq has been successfully deployed it's a good idea to investigate what other features
will fit the City and how to go about using them. A conversation with IQM2 staff will help
determine what will best fit with the City's future plans as well as what else can be done to add
additional efficiencies. Some of the Advanced Functions are listed below:
1) End User Reports (advanced), searching
2) Letter Factory
3) Legal Notices
4) Work Planner
5) Work Flow and Routing
6) Other Documents
7) Templates Concept and Methodology (Admin Users)
8) Tasks/Follow Actions (All Users)

Scope of Services
----IQMTwill-pYovio,.-t11eCiWofSanfaMonicaWitn-MinuteTraq;the Legislative andAgenaa-Management
framework of IQM2's Government Meeting Platform. The system will provide functionality to manage
all meeting documen.ts, reviewing processes and procedures, creating agenda packets, creating minutes,
compiling and distributing post-meeting letters, and web publishing and search functions. Key standard
components of the system include the following:
• Centralized Document Database
• Workflow, Routing, and Review Process
• Attachments and Importing
• PDF Printer
• Document Generation
• Fast Re-Generation Technology to quickly modify and regenerate documents
• History Tracking and Audit Trail
• Revision Tracking and Comparing
• Information Sharing and Delivery
• Meeting Capture and Streaming
• Task Follow-Up and Process Tracking
• Free Ongoing Training
Additional Services
In addition to the standard platform detailed above and in the original agreement, IQM2 will provide the
City of Santa Monica with an enhancement to the agenda management system to provide the following
additional template-driven functionality.
• Template Grouping and Organization
• Field-Driven, Field-Specific Template Filtering
• Hyperlink functionality in Rich Text Fields
• Improvements to Template Selector
This enhancement is detailed below.

Standard Language Guide Enhancement-
Template Properties, Grouping & Organizing
• Currently templates can belong to multiple Template Types but there is only a template type
defined for the discussion and body but no comments. Additionally the XML templates are mixed
in with the Body templates.
• Header and Insert templates are used for "Generating" and should be left alone and considered
separate. It would be preferable to have the Template List operate in two different modes
(Generating Templates and New Templates/ Standard Language Guide) which could have 2
different menu options or some kind ofTab on the list that lets the list filter between these two
types.
• Template Types: Currently the Usage field on a template allows for this partially but does not
have enough defined types.
o New: Minutes Statement
o New: Minutes Motion
o New: Discussion --> Rename to: New: Legislative Discussion
o New: Legislative File
• This one will only be used for the XML templates
• Move any Non-XML templates of this type to the new type below (New: Legislative
Body).
• Add the following Template Types
o New: Legislative Comments
o New: Legislative Body (Move any non-XML to Legislative File templates to this new type)
• Clarifying Info
o New Templates -New XML for Legi Files (Can't be edited except for properties)
o Language Guide -essentially the "New" type templates
• Body
• Discussion
• Comments
• Statements
• Motions
• Template Properties for New Legislative Files -When creating a template of type New Legislative
File you are prompted for the File Type. This should be extended to any of the fields that apply to
the file type (New: Legislative File, Body, Discussion and Comments). It should be optional so a
template could apply to all or a specific file type.

depending if a Generating Templates or Language Templates are being indicated in the
Usage.
o Additional instructional labels should be added under the "Additional Usages" that better
explains what the user should use this field:
• Add report names to each line which allow you to customize this template in different
modes. The additional report names will appear under the drop down menus in the
Agenda Wizard and Minutes Maker.
• Add names of Language Groups that you would like this template to be grouped under
and included in when being selected for specific uses. When selecting a template from
a hyper/ink the language groups can be used to limit the templates available for a
specific selection.

Filtering Templates based on Field(s) being Used
• New Button -When starting a new Legislative file from the beginning the template selector
should be modified to show all "New" type templates for that file type being created.
o This is a change in current behavior to include the discussion and new comments types. This
could be a problem if there are discussion templates that are unwanted. Need further
investigating.
• Use Template -When using the "Select Template" field from the toolbar the dialog form should
only show templates where the usage (aka Template Type) has the matching type selected:
o Discussion, Body, Comments ==> New: Legislative XXX
• If the Legislative File Type is specified on a template then this also should be
considered part of the filtering parameters. If a template has this field blank then it
applies to all file types.
o Agenda and Minutes Motion or Statement ==> New: Minutes Motion, New: Minutes
Statement
"Click Here" Hyperlinks in Rich Text Fields
• When loading a Rich Text field automatic recognize some delimiting mark that turns the text into a
hyperlink:
• «CLICK TO SELECT»
• «CLICK TO SELECT: Vendor Selection»
o This would allow them to select templates where the Standard Language Group was
"Vendor Selection". The dialog box would limit the templates based on both the field and
the group.
• Templates that selected may also have these delimiters so inserting a template could bring across
additional hyperlinks to click and select.
• After selecting template the delimiter is removed entirely. If the delimiter is the only non-
whitespace within the paragraph then the extra paragraph is removed. If the delimiter is included
from within a paragraph then just the delimiter is cleared.

changes:

Improvements to Template Selector
• Groupings should show in list when a list is showing more than one group -if possible.
• There may be limitations of the control that prevent grouping from showing. We also
may choose to deploy Language Tagging instead of Grouping.
• Text filter at top, focus is defaulted here and as user types the list of templates filters down by
keywords in name, description and language groups.

• IQM2 reserves the right to modify or expand the specifications.
• Specifically in regards to the Grouping. We believe it may actually be more flexible to deploy
"Tagging" instead and allow the Template selector hyperlinks the ability to select multiple tags

dialog may be affected.
