SUBJECT: FOLLOW-UP TO QUESTION ASKED AT THE JANUARY 28, 2020 FINANCE
COMMITTEE MEETING REGARDING SPECIFIC EXPENDITURES
At the January 28, 2020 Finance Committee meeting, Committee Members inquired about various
expenditures, and specifically requested more detail on the expenditure listed below:
Expenditures List Page 22. Check#226721 paid to Carahsoft Tech Corp. in amount of$2.148.09 for
"DocuSign Licenses"
Staff Response:
The DocuSign software and support is used for electronic signature, document preparation and
management of vendor and other legally binding agreements. Implementation and continued
utilization of this service is one of many strategies helping Central San achieve its Strategic Plan Goal
to "Embrace Technology, Innovation, and Environmental Sustainability." Rather than purchase a full
year of support that staff would need to renew constantly, management works to co-term these
agreements so that they end at the same time, streamlining renewals. Accordingly, this payment was
to add additional user licenses for the software covering the time frame 11/1/2019 to 4/14/2020. The
FY 2019-20 budget estimated a total cost of$6,000 for this service.
Strategic Plan Tie-In
GOAL THREE: Be a Fiscally Sound and Effective Water Sector Utility
Strategy 2- Manage costs
