Description of supplies or services to be provided:

Select Business Solutions is the owner of the NOMAD software. This procurement is for moving the perpetual licenses and increasing the license usage to the cloud. The overview of the licenses are based on an overarching license and amount of Millions of Instructions per second (MIPS) that is utilized, hence the increase in usage. This increase is also a product of moving to modern technology, where the hardware will be supported. As it stands, the amount of MIPS being utilized on the mainframe, Z13, is 98. This move will have an approximate increased amount of 3041 MIPS which gives a total of usable MIPS of 3139 MIPS utilized. The license currently comes with software maintenance. This is an 18 year old software that the following agencies, DCFS, DPH, and DOT utilize for payroll, human resources and timekeeping which needs to be preserved and running to prevent any malfunctions that can not be restored or recovered. DolT is moving these applications to the cloud to be able to continue to support these key applications for these agencies. The environment that hosts these applications are in a critical state and can no longer be supported as is. The environment is many years out of support and can't be safely restarted at this time. An interruption of service to this environment, may render it unusable due to the age of the equipment involved.

Moving to the cloud is the necessary option and needs to be done before there is a critical failure. A previous Emergency was declared but it failed to include the 3rd party connection fee for this work. This fee will allow the product to run in the Mainframe as a Service environment.
