Summary: The District is currently on version 7.6.3 of its Bi-Tech IFAS financial software (recently renamed Business Plus by its new owner, SunGard). This version was implemented 6 years ago and is reaching the end of its support cycle.

During the past year and a half the District also looked at other software systems available on the marketplace including joining the County Office of Education in its implementation of Tyler's MUNIS, Infinite Visions, and Quintessential Software Solutions (QSS) currently used by San Ramon Valley USD.

In each case the cost of conversion to any of these software formats was substantially more than the cost of upgrading to the current version of SunGard.
Funding: Microsoft K-12 Settlement
Fiscal Impact $318,667.95
