Executive Summary

The City of Augusta, Georgia’s municipal government originally contracted with Bi-Tech,
Inc. (now Sungard) in 1997 to supply Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software to
manage financial, procurement, and human resources management processes in the
city. A progressively growing company, Sungard has acquired, consolidated, and

within the hardware and database industry, the Oracle platform used to operate IFAS will
no longer be available on Augusta servers so migration of the current database to
Microsoft SQL Server has become mandatory.

upgrade proposed for the City of Augusta, Georgia municipal government. Recent Digital
Cities surveys conducted by e.Republic’s Center for Digital Government (WHO IS
