Item Name: County Enterprise Resource Planning Software Vendor and Implementer Selection
Jason Dzwinel - County Administrator, Bart Hawley - CliftonLarsenAllen
Summary:
Background and Need
Ozaukee County currently relies on approximately 28 separate systems to manage
financial, human resources, payroll, and timekeeping functions. These systems are
fragmented, require significant manual intervention, and lack integration across
departments.
The County’s primary financial system, Microsoft Great Plains, is approaching end-of-life,
with payroll support ending on January 1, 2029. Supporting systems for timekeeping,
reporting, and grants management are similarly outdated or disconnected. As a result,
staff rely heavily on spreadsheets and manual processes, increasing inefficiencies and
risk.
A 2025 Business Opportunity Assessment conducted by CliftonLarsonAllen (CLA)
confirmed:
• Heavy reliance on manual processes
• Inconsistent workflows across departments
• Limited real-time reporting capabilities
• Increased operational and financial risk due to fragmentation
The assessment recommended implementation of a fully integrated ERP system to
modernize operations and improve efficiency, accuracy, and transparency.
Selection Process
Following the assessment, the County issued a formal Request for Proposals (RFP) in
May 2025. Seven vendors were evaluated based on functionality, implementation
approach, integration capability, and total cost of ownership.
After a structured review process, two finalists, Workday and Oracle, were selected for
in-depth evaluation. Based on system capability and alignment with County needs,
Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP was selected, with Iteria identified as the implementation
partner.
Page 24 of 44
Proposed Solution
The proposed ERP solution replaces the County’s fragmented systems with a single,
integrated cloud-based platform supporting:
• Financial management
• Human resources and payroll
• Timekeeping and labor management
• Procurement and asset management
• Reporting and analytics
The system will provide a single source of truth, reduce manual processes, and improve
reporting and decision-making capabilities.
Timeline:
• Project start: June 2026
• Go-live: January 2028
Financial Plan and Assumptions
The ERP project represents a significant but manageable investment that can be
supported through existing County resources without the need for borrowing.
Estimated Project Costs
• Implementation (including contingency): $2.2 million
• Oracle licensing (10-year estimate): ~$2.3 million
Funding Strategy
• Implementation costs funded through project fund balance
• No debt issuance currently anticipated
• Minimal impact to reserves due to:
o Strong sales tax growth and projected revenues
o Higher-than-budgeted interest earnings
o Growth in General Fund balance (approx. $1.5M in 2025)
Cost Offsets
The ERP system will replace multiple existing software systems, eliminating
approximately:
• $200,000+ annually in current licensing costs (e.g., OpenGov, Kronos,
Greenshades, DocuWare, etc.)
These savings will partially offset the ongoing Oracle subscription costs.
Ongoing Costs
• Oracle licensing estimated at approximately $200,000 annually over 10 years
• Internal project management supported through the Internal Service Fund

• Ongoing costs largely offset by eliminated systems
• Financial plan maintains stability of County reserves
Current Status
The County has executed a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with Iteria. This allows for
continued due diligence and negotiation while preserving Board authority for final
approval.
Page 26 of 44
A preliminary scoping document has been developed outlining:
• System modules
• Implementation approach
• Timeline
This will be formalized into a detailed Statement of Work (SOW).
Next Steps to Finalize Contract
Prior to Board approval, the following items will be completed:
• Final Statement of Work (scope and deliverables)
• Refined multi-year cost model
• Verified user counts and licensing assumptions
• Detailed implementation and governance plan
• Final contract terms with appropriate County protections
Staff are actively working with CLA, Oracle, and Iteria to finalize these elements.
Board Engagement and Timeline
• Early May: Full Board presentation and discussion
• May 21: Request for contract authorization
This approach allows for Board input prior to finalizing negotiations.
Conclusion
The ERP project is a necessary step to modernize County operations and address long-
standing inefficiencies and risks associated with fragmented systems. The proposed
Oracle solution aligns with identified needs and provides long-term operational and
financial benefits.
While the project requires a significant upfront investment, the financial plan is sound,
leverages existing resources, and avoids the need for borrowing. With final due diligence
underway, the County is positioned to bring forward a complete and contract-ready
agreement for Board consideration.

Agenda Summary Resolution: Submittal and Acceptance of Outdoor Recreation Trail Aids -
County Snowmobile Trail Aids Funding through the Wisconsin Department of Natural
Resources
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Ozaukee County, in conjunction with the Ozaukee County
Snowmobile Clubs, proposes to submit an application for funding through Wisconsin
Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) Outdoor Motorized Recreation Trail Aids program
for snowmobile trail maintenance funds. Each year the Ozaukee County Planning and Parks
Department applies to the WDNR to fund the operation and maintenance of the Ozaukee County
snowmobile trails through the various snowmobile trail clubs in the County. The County serves
as the administrator of the grant funds and provides reimbursement to each of the Ozaukee
County snowmobile clubs for eligible maintenance activities for their snowmobile trails (per
mileage). The Planning and Parks Department (Department) may receive funds for administering
the grant after the Snowmobile Clubs have been reimbursed and is responsible for filing
reimbursements with the WDNR. These grant proposals are consistent and complementary with
past Trail Aids collaborative applications.
ANALYSIS: The Department has applied for and received WDNR grant funding for
snowmobile trail maintenance in several past years. The trail maintenance grant funds are based
on the amount of WDNR approved snowmobile trail miles maintained by the snowmobile clubs
in the County. The funding request for trail maintenance is $32,583, based on the current
approved mileage (108.61 miles). The County provides in-kind management, administration and
distribution of the trail maintenance funds. Actual expenses for the snowmobile trail
maintenance grant is equal to the revenue in a given snowmobile season. The County is eligible
for a pre-payment on 50% of the reimbursable grant. See also the attached required resolution
for application and acceptance of Outdoor Recreation Aids from the WDNR.

Introduction
The snowmobile grant program was created with the passage of Chapter 394 Laws of 1970. The
Department of Natural Resources was authorized to administer a grant program for the acquisition,
development, insurance and maintenance of public snowmobile trails. A Governor's Snowmobile
Recreation Council consisting of 15 members was created to advise the Department on matters
relating to the administration of the program.
Through the efforts of the Snowmobile Recreation Council, the Department and organized snowmobile
clubs, a number of changes and additions have been made to the original legislation. These changes
have resulted in a program that fosters a safe, well-maintained snowmobile trail system throughout
Wisconsin and effective enforcement and safety programs for all enthusiasts.
The purpose of this guide is to outline the requirements of the components of Wisconsin's snowmobile
grant programs.
This guidance will reference chs. 23, 340 and 350, Wis. Stats. and ch. NR 50, Wis. Admin Code.
Funds for the Program
Snowmobile funds come from a variety of sources:
• Payment of a registration fee for each snowmobile maintained and operated for public use within
the state. Registration funds are used for all aspects of the Wisconsin snowmobile program.
• A portion of the excise tax on gasoline calculated for 50 gallons of gasoline for every snowmobile
registered by the last day of March each year. An additional 55% of that total is received from the
excise tax and used for supplemental maintenance claims. This money is used to pay eligible
counties for supplemental maintenance expenses in excess of $300 per mile.
• Payment of an annual trail pass fee for all snowmobiles operated on public trails in the state, which
is used for all aspects of the Wisconsin snowmobile program.
• As part of the 2013-15 Biennial Budget, Stewardship Program funds were designated for the
Snowmobile/ATV/UTV grant programs. These funds are referred to as “Motorized Stewardship”.
The department has made $500,000 available annually for ATV/UTV/Snowmobile project.
This source of funds has more restrictions than the general Snow/ATV/UTV funds: A 20% local
match is required; this meaning no other state, federal, or volunteer funds or labor may be used on
a project funded with Motorized Stewardship funds.
A Land Use Agreement of at least five-years duration is required on any project completed with
Motorized Stewardship funds. Minimum useful life requirements on projects are as follows:
• 5 years – trail rehabilitation
• 10 years – bridges
• 20 years – capital improvements (support facilities such as: warming house, restrooms, trail-
head, etc.)
• Perpetual – land acquisition
For more information, see the Motorized Stewardship page at: dnr.wi.gov\aid\motorstew.html.

Planning Requirements
What are the Planning Requirements for Project Applications?
Counties are required to have a comprehensive plan approved by the County Board of Supervisors or
designated committee and the Department of Natural Resources. [s. NR 50.09(4)(a)1, Wis. Adm.
Code]
The County Board of any county, which, by resolution, indicates its desire to receive snowmobile aids
for their snowmobile trails. [s. 23.09(26)(b), Wis. Stats.]
Counties that have previously met the planning requirements for the snowmobile trail grant program
are required to maintain a current trail system map that shows trail locations, trail classifications and
existing trail mileage by classification [s. NR 50.09(4)(a)2, Wis. Adm. Code]. Historically, those may
have been submitted as printed maps. As of 2018, the Department requires a current GIS data
layer of the county’s snowmobile trail system be submitted to the Department to meet this
requirement.
County snowmobile trail data layers should have the following minimum attributes assigned to the
linear data…
1) Funding Status (Funded vs Unfunded, or Club vs County, etc.)
2) Identify ROUTE segments that are not eligible for funding (if included in the layer)
3) Name or number of the trail
4) Any additional attributes that may be useful, such as Club, Comments, etc.
The county must submit a comprehensive, current countywide trail layer to meet this requirement.
Individual trail segment GPS files will not be sufficient.
Eligible Applicants [s. 23.09(26) Wis. Stats.]
This grant program was established as “Aids to Counties for Snowmobile Purposes.” County and
tribal governments are the only eligible applicant to the grant program, and will be the official recipient
of any grant funds issued. In practice, however, county governments work closely with local
snowmobile clubs to perform the work of maintaining the trails.
Eligible Projects [s. 350.12(4), Wis. Stats., s. 23.09(26)(c), Wis. Stats.]
1. Maintenance of snowmobile trails - provides up to 100% of the cost up to $300 per mile for
activities associated with keeping a trail safe and enjoyable to use. Maintenance activities include
the posting of signs, brushing, grooming of snow, minor repair of bridges, bridge inspections,
purchase of county liability insurance and the purchase of short-term easements or other land use
agreements periods of less than 3 years.
2. Major bridge rehabilitation - provides up to 100% of the cost of major reconstruction or
rehabilitation. This may include replacement when necessary to return a bridge on the existing trail
system to a functioning, safe structure. The purpose of this category is to provide funds to make
major structural repairs or renovation that would be beyond the ability of normal maintenance
funding to accomplish.
3. Trail rehabilitation - provides up to 100% of the cost of repair or reconstruction activities that are
necessary to improve a trail for user safety and enjoyment. The repairs or renovation may be for
Page 37 of 44
3
the improvement of the trail for safety reasons or in response to natural events that adversely
affect trail safety. Similar to bridge rehabilitation, the purpose of this category is to provide funds to
undertake major trail repairs for safety that would be beyond the ability of normal maintenance
funding to accomplish.
4. Trail development - provides up to100% of the cost of constructing a trail. Activities include
grading, initial signing and construction of bridges or other support facilities. Development also
includes the purchase of land in fee simple and the acquisition of interests in land for a term of 3
years or greater.
Distribution of Funds
Distribution of Trail Funds [s. 23.09(26)(c), Wis. Stats.]
The distribution of funds in the trails program is based on the priority list established in s. 23.09(26)(c),
Wis. Stats. The Governor-appointed Snowmobile Recreation Council makes funding
recommendations in the following order. :
Maintenance of existing approved trails. This includes: purchase of county liability insurance,
acquisition of easements of less than 3 years and signs.
NOTE: Club signing program referenced in s. 23.09(26)(c) is an obsolete cardboard sign
program no longer in use.
1. Major bridge reconstruction or rehabilitation
2. Route signing program (see note below)
3. Trail Rehabilitation
a) Mandatory Trail Relocation
b) Discretionary Trail Relocation
Development of New Trails
a) New bridges
b) New trails
c) Facility development / non-trails
d) Acquisition of land interests
Route Signing Program: Timing Logistics Make Grant Funding Difficult
While s. 23.09(26)(c) Wis. Stats lists route signing as an eligible expense, the timing of the grant
application process makes it difficult for eligible applicants (counties and tribal governments) to
utilize grant funds for this purpose. In order to remain eligible for reimbursement, costs cannot be
incurred until after both parties have signed the grant agreement (fall/winter of application year, if
selected for funding). But when a county/tribe opens their roads up as routes, they are responsible
for signing those routes ASAP. The catch-22 is that the applicant need to sign the routes as soon
as they are opened per their ordinance, but grant funds wouldn’t be available for several months
AFTER an application is submitted. To utilize grant funds, a county would have to loosely commit to
opening routes in their application IN THE FUTURE, but not ACTUALLY open routes (and purchase
and install signs) until they get a signed agreement in the fall/winter. Even if the timing is just right,
there is no guarantee of grant funding. All grant applications are shared with the Governor’s
Snowmobile Council for funding recommendations in the summer.
