BAC'KGROUNDe
The further development of PEGASYS PLUS is part of the General Assistance (GA) Program implementation
as authorized by the Board in February 1997. During the development of the system, there have been changes in
the GA Program, policies and the interpretation of the legal basis. Because GA continues to be subject to
frequent changes in design, particularly as a result of litigation, it has been a complicated process to design, and,
has required redesign modifications. PEGASYS continues to prove successful in complying with the court
ordered requirements for tracking GA recipients.
This project phase will include additional modules for increased functionality and modifications to existing
modules as required by General Assistance (GA) Program policy and regulations, and to support GA case
management and accurate reporting requirements. Maintenance support services include the development and
integration into the existing system, of new and revised programming.
Mr. Clark, as a developer of PEGASYS, has assisted in its implementation and the resulting control of GA
expenditures. As part of the contractual responsibility, he will train the in-house programmer staff for the take
over of PEGASYS maintenance, support and operations. PEGASYS PLUS will include additional modules to
accommodate the Board's adopted policies, and enable the mitigation of Welfare Reform impact on GA.
