JC KESTEL, Procurement Officer, Legislative Affairs Agency (LAA), stated there are two lease renewals today before Council. The first is the Mat-Su LIO located in Wasilla. This is the first of five optional one-year renewals (for the period of August 1, 2022, through July 31, 2023) with lessor 600 E. Railroad Avenue, LLC. Legislative Council approval is required because the lease renewal exceeds the $50,000 threshold in one year. 7:09:07 AM There were no questions and a roll call vote was taken.

FY2023 Software House International (SHI)/Microsoft Enterprise Software Renewal 7:11:44 AM SENATE PRESIDENT MICCICHE moved that Legislative Council authorize the annual Microsoft FY23 licensing payment to SHI not to exceed $185,000. TIM BANASZAK, Chief Information Officer, LAA, and IT Subcommittee Chair, stated that in 2021 Legislative Council approved the first installment of the State of Alaska's three- year contract with extension provisions with Software House International (SHI). This contract provides Microsoft products including Windows 10, servers, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc. This agreement provides licensing to operate critical infrastructure systems including workstations, servers, databases including BASIS, the network environment, the internet and intranet, and file storage. He continued that part of this also includes email, archiving, and the protective OneDrive file sharing, software licensing and collaboration for our mobile devices, and video and audio conferencing. He said one of the important components of this is that it safeguards applications, operating systems, and databases by providing the most current patches and software releases to avoid threats and vulnerabilities. He stated that the $185,000 requested is budgeted under the Integrated Technology Services allocation, however it does require Legislative Council approval. Without this agreement, the Legislature would no longer have email access, its software would become out of date, and it would cause unnecessary risks to the Legislature. 7:14:46 AM There were no questions and a roll call vote was taken. YEAS: Representatives Claman, Hannan, Stutes, Tilton, Tuck; Senators Micciche, Stedman, Stevens. NAYS: None. The motion passed 8-0. V. Committee Business Executive Session a.
