WHEREAS, by publication of Request for Proposals No. 5329, the City of Little Rock solicited
proposals from qualified firms to provide a fully integrated, web - enabled applications information
system for the City's Enterprise Resource Planning System, and
WHEREAS, Lawson Software, Inc. was selected by the City as the most qualified to provide the
products and services to implement an integrated suite of enterprise applications that will meet the
City's present and future needs, and
WHEREAS, on February 7, 2006, the Little Rock Board of Directors, by passage of Resolution No.
12,202, authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Lawson Software, Inc. for the
purchase and implementation of Lawson enterprise software, and
WHEREAS, additional application and technical consulting services are needed to complete the
Lawson software implementation process, but the cost of such services will result in a total contract
amount that exceeds 25% above the original bid proposal and would be paid without a separate
competitive bidding process, and
WHEREAS, it is impractical and unfeasible to have a company other than Lawson Software, Inc.
provide the consultation services that are requisite to the Lawson Software implementation
methodology, and
WHEREAS, competitive bidding should be waived and a Change Order executed with Lawson
Software, Inc. as the sole source provider of the application and technical consultation services that
are required to complete the City's Enterprise Resource Planning software implementation process.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CITY OF LITTLE
ROCK, ARKANSAS:
Section 1. The Board of Directors finds that competitive bidding should be dispensed with in

Lawson Software, Inc. for the purchase of 654 hours of ERP Implementation application and technical
consulting for an amount not to exceed One Hundred Forty -One Thousand, One Hundred Thirty
