B7.02 - Approve Altamira Consulting, LLC's Concurrency Adjacency Analysis Agreement for Analytical and Geographical Cloud Services Suite for School Districts (Operations Division)
On March 12, 2019, the School Board approved a contract with Altamira Consulting, LLC for the development and implementation of a cloud-based analytical platform ARIA (CLOUD SERVICES) used to support the Growth Management and Planning Department and the Student Planning and Placement Department with student data, attendance boundaries, and tracking of new residential developments. This additional contract will add a contiguous concurrency service area analysis and tracking feature, which will replace an excel spreadsheet currently used for school concurrency tracking. Therefore, all of the development tracking features and components will be located within one program.
District staff has explored other geospatial systems through review of responses to Request for Information and through research of products used by other school districts in the state. No "off the shelf" product offers the unique aspects currently offered in ARIA, most specifically the tracking of new residential developments.
