Page 5 <br /> '.. Agenda Attachment V <br /> • 04ta Processing Bids <br /> OTHER ALTERNATIVES <br /> c <br /> 1) RETAIN dXISTING METHOD <br /> We have 60,836 budgeted for service bureau work in the 1977-1978 Budget. <br /> If we do not ing we will get the same level of service as in previous years, <br /> we think thi� is unacceptable. The Data Processing Manager could work with <br /> our current service bureau and improve our information flow within the con- <br /> straints of �he existing budget. A move into new areas would require extensive <br /> additional f nding. Our current service bureau is not in a position to offer <br /> on-line inte I active systems. <br /> 2) JOINT- VE14TURE WITH ANOTHER GOVERNMENTAL UNIT <br /> I contacted four units about the possibilities of purchasing or sharing <br /> a portion of their computer resources. 'There are some resources available <br /> through other units but they are not very usable in an on-line interactive <br /> environment. In all cases we would have similiar costs for terminals located <br /> in the County departments. None could provide programming, consulting, or <br /> clerical services: <br /> a) TRIANGLE UNIVERSITIES COMPUTATION CENTER <br /> TUCC could provide this service and is set up to provide <br /> this type operating environment for educational institutions. <br /> MCC is a non-profit corporation whose primary purpose is to <br /> seve North Carolina institutions of higher education; therefore <br /> of er type users may have restricted use during peak academic <br /> periods (March--May 15th and October-December 15th). This <br /> possible use restriction and their high interactive prices <br /> mak them an unattractive resource. TUCC`s prices for Inter- <br /> active services (CPU $1 ,950/hr. , Port or Terminal Connect $3.24/hr. ) <br /> are very high to process production jobs or to maintain records <br />
