BACKGROUND During the budgeting process FY 2023, the estimated carryover was programmed for FY 2023 expenditures.

LOCAL PREFERENCE Local preference was not implemented because this item is not an award of a contract. FISCAL IMPACT Funding is available in the Information Services Department's (ISD) Systems Acquisition and Replacement (SAM) Fund due to unallocated carryover resources.
