Re: JResult Client Modification



In all the elections I have been at, the most important factor in finishing the election is identifying the unreported polls/precincts and tracking them down.  Perhaps a set percentage of polls/precincts could be listed, determined by the GEMS manager. 
This looks like an excellent feature for all GEMS customers.

Tell them to shop for the changes elsewhere.

Hamilton County would not approve a $20,000 program enhancement, but would probably approve a $2,000 to $2,500 charge.  If we advertise the enhancement or module (enhancements if applicable to all users are normally not charged for) is available I would doubt that we would not have several counties desiring such for a charge of $2,000 to $2,500.  Several counties have asked for the information to be displayed, but no one has taken the inquiry seriously until Hamilton County'd request of Cathi.

I feel it is in our best interest to notify them of an estimated charge.  This payment for a programming change is such a novel idea, maybe we could see more of this.

 

I have talked to Tab about this at length, since indeed this is without a lot of precedence.  We estimate this feature to cost in the neighbourhood of $20k.  It will take roughly two weeks to implement.  The election date is Aug 3, so we'd need to get a contract in place in short order to have it done in time for testing and deployment.

 

I know there are other accounts that would want this feature, or something similar;  it would be worth seeing if the cost might be shared with other accounts.  We don't really have a sales mechanism in place for that to happen right now, but as you say this is fairly novel.
