DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The current expenditure budget appropriation is inadequate due to a shortfall in funding for the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) capital project allocated to Fire Rescue. This discrepancy stems from a mismatch between the originally budgeted amount and the actual expenditures incurred. The Information Technology Department has already processed the payment and is now requesting Fire Rescue to cover the funding gap.
To address this issue, Fire Rescue has identified Office Supplies as the source of funds and will reallocate from that budget line to offset the shortfall.
This is considered a non-recurring issue, unless the Information Technology Department anticipates that future costs for the ERP software project will exceed the amounts proposed in subsequent budgets. If it becomes a recurring concern, adjustments will need to be made during the budget planning process to ensure adequate funding is allocated moving forward.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral.
