The City Council of Indianapolis convened on July 22, 2025, to discuss several key resolutions concerning technology and security enhancements for local government operations. The meeting primarily focused on funding approvals for various information technology projects aimed at improving efficiency and security within city services.

One of the significant resolutions presented was from the Marion County Sheriff's Office (MCSO), seeking to amend its agreement with Security Automation Systems. The proposed amendment would increase the contract by $112,000, bringing the total to $425,570 for a year. This funding is intended for the maintenance of the badging and door control systems, as well as the camera systems used by the MCSO.

Additionally, the council reviewed a resolution regarding the continuation of kiosk services provided by PKT. The kiosks, which have been operational since October, are currently located in three townships, with plans to extend the service for another two years under a new contract.

Another notable discussion involved a new agreement with Bluecrest for licensing and maintenance of vote-by-mail equipment and software. The board approved a contract not to exceed $140,000 for the next three years, following a previous procurement of over $2 million for related equipment.

The meeting also addressed a resolution for a new agreement with UKG, which is set to cover software licensing and project management for a total of $3 million over four years. This system is utilized across multiple city agencies for timekeeping and operational management.

Lastly, the council approved a resolution for PeopleSoft migration services, which aims to transition from on-premise storage to a cloud environment. This move is expected to enhance disaster recovery and business continuity for critical city systems, with an expenditure authorization of $550,000 over two years.

Overall, the meeting underscored the city’s commitment to enhancing its technological infrastructure and security systems, ensuring that local government operations remain efficient and secure. The approved resolutions will facilitate ongoing improvements in service delivery to the community.
