MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Chris Thompson, Senior Information Systems Administrator
DATE: 04/19/2023 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Award of Agreement for Professional Services to Nobel
Systems, Inc., for GIS and Geoviewer Online and Public Viewer
Hosting Services
BACKGROUND
In 2014, the City entered into a three-year Agreement for Professional GIS Services with
Nobel Systems. The Agreement was extended in one-year increments in 2017, 2018,
and 2019. In 2020, Amendment No. 6 extended the agreement until 2023. Staff has
found the services provided by Nobel to be satisfactory over the past nine years.
DISCUSSION
Effective April 14, 2023, the current agreement amendment for Nobel Systems expired.
Since entering into an agreement with Nobel Systems (Nobel) in 2014, Nobel has
performed satisfactorily and has kept its annual rate unchanged during that time. Staff
would like to continue the service uninterrupted. Nobel has indicated that they will require
an increase to their annual rate by 15%, and are willing to lock in that rate in an agreement
for five years for the annual subscription and additional GIS services as needed.
Under the Agreement, Nobel provides hosted GIS mapping services used by both City
staff and the public at large through the City website. The GIS systems are used for
spatial analysis, look-up of spatial data (zoning, parcel numbers, and property ownership
information, etc.), generation of mailing lists, and map and graphics generation, among
other things.
In addition to the hosted services, Nobel occasionally provides one-time GIS-related
services to the City, most frequently the generation of new data sets. For example, when
the City switched City Council elections to a district-based system, the City obtained a
new GIS layer for City Council Districts from Nobel. The Agreement provides for the City
to procure such one-time GIS services from Nobel as part of the base contract.

Additional GIS services that Nobel provides at no additional cost include updating the GIS
base maps and data for our EnerGov permit address checking system, as well as
uploading additional layers as needed that have been provided by other vendors, such
as; Council district maps, LMD maps, and others.
Nobel’s proposal includes an upgrade to the City’s Public GIS view to be a clean, simple
interface for the general public to interact with, and more easily identify maps of common
City services such as Council District maps.
City staff and the public use this mapping system daily. Many municipalities have an in-
house GIS department for the systems and staff to perform this type of mapping work.
Due to workload and staffing constraints, it is not feasible to perform this work in-house
and there are a limited number of firms available that perform this type of mapping service.
The City currently maintains an agreement with Nobel Systems, Inc., and staff has been
generally pleased with the work completed and service received from Nobel. City Council
Policy Resolution No. 2019-3829 establishes that service contracts are to be awarded by
an informal Request for Proposals (RFP) for services costing from $60,000 to $200,000.
However, Section 4.B. of the Policy establishes that the City Manager (as the purchasing
agent) may waive the informal RFP requirement if the City Manager determines, based
on consultation with the applicable Department Head, that the service to be performed
can be competently and cost effectively performed by a particular individual, firm or
company, based on the City Manager’s and Department Head’s personal or direct prior
experience in contracting with that individual, firm or company.
In 2019, staff requested informal bids from similar GIS service vendors and identified only
one other vendor that could perform similar work, but at a 55% increased cost over
Nobel’s rate. Staff feels that changing vendors would add unnecessary workload and
possible lapse of service. Staff feels that Nobel’s services are competitively priced and
that it is in the City’s best interest to maintain the consistency of service with Nobel for
GIS Services. The City Manager, after consulting with the Finance Director, has agreed
to waive the informal RFP process in this case as a result of Nobel demonstrating
competency in their field with satisfactory performance.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it does
not constitute a project, as defined by Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
FISCAL IMPACT
The first year of the proposed subscription agreement is $23,285, and each subsequent
year is $18,285 plus an additional allocation of $5,000 per Fiscal Year for additional as-
needed GIS services. The total not-to-exceed amount of the five-year agreement is
$121,425. Funding for Nobel Systems’ GeoViewer subscription services and optional
527
Honorable City Council
04/19/2023 Regular Meeting
Page 3
GIS services have been included in the current Fiscal Year 2022/23, and requested Fiscal
Year 2023/24 budgets.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to waive informal bidding process as this service can be
competently and cost-effectively performed by Nobel based on staff’s prior experience in
our current contract with Nobel; and approve the Agreement for GIS Services between
the City of Moorpark and Nobel Systems, subject to final language approval by the City
Manager.

required. Any insurance proceeds available to the City in excess of the limits and

insured’s liability is determined, not requiring actual payment by the insured first. There
shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured
against another. Coverage shall be applicable to the City for injury to employees of
Consultant, subconsultants or others involved in the Work. The scope of coverage
provided is subject to approval by the City following receipt of proof of insurance as

aggregate.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are
admitted carriers in the State of California and with an A.M. Bests rating of A- or better

General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Consultant.
Consultant and the City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by
Consultant:
1. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability
coverage required herein to include as additional insureds the City, its officials,
employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement CG 2010 and CG 2037
with edition acceptable to the City. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors
and subcontractors to do likewise.
2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall
prohibit Consultant, or Consultant’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right
to subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights
against the City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to
require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Consultant and available or
applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or
its operation limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these
requirements if they include limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been
first submitted to the City and approved in writing.
5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to
eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for
bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor.
539
NOBEL SYSTEMS, INC. Page 12 of 14
6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification, and
additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make
any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or
reduction of discovery period) that may affect the City’s protection without the
City’s prior written consent.
7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates
of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured
endorsement to Consultant’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to city at or
prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance
is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled or reduced
at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, the City has the right, but
not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests
under this or any other Agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid
by the City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from
sums due Consultant, at the City’s option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to the City of
any cancellation or reduction of coverage. Consultant agrees to require its insurer
to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of
the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation or reduction of coverage imposes
no obligation, or that any party will “endeavor” (as opposed to being required) to
comply with the requirements of the certificate.
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage
required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply
first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or
self-insurance available to the City.
10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with
the Work who is brought onto or involved in the Work by Consultant, provide the
same minimum insurance required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor
and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such
coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant
agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged
in the Work will be submitted to the City for review.
11. Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or
deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that
it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer, or other entity
or person in any way involved in the performance of Work contemplated by this
Agreement to self-insure its obligations to the City. If Consultant’s existing
coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-
insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time, the City shall review
options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the
deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other
solutions.

12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Agreement to change
the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant 90 days
advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation
proportional to the increased benefit to the City.
13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed
to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that
can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.
14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part
of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with an insurance requirement
in no way imposes any additional obligations to the City nor does it waive any rights
hereunder in this or any other regard.
15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as the City, or its
employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to
this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled
or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until the
City executes a written statement to that effect.
16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring
during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other
policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been
ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from
Consultant’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance
and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications
applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to the City within
five days of the expiration of coverage.
17. The provisions of any Workers’ Compensation or similar act will not limit the
obligations of Consultant under this Agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not
to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to the City,
its employees, officials, and agents.
18. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are
not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements nor as a
waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference
to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-
inclusive.
19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any
other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be
interpreted as such.
541
NOBEL SYSTEMS, INC. Page 14 of 14
20. The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of this
Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts or impairs the
provisions of this section.
21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any
party involved in any way with the Work reserves the right to charge the City or
Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this
Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to the City. It is
not the intent of the City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with
these requirements. There shall be no recourse against the City for payment of
premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
22. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against
Consultant arising out of the work performed under this Agreement. The City
assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve the
City.

3. GEOVIEWER ONLINE
A top objective of the City is to provide Geographical Information System (GIS) data to the casual user. Making GIS data
available to casual users is very important. In many organizations, the "non-GIS people" and/or novice computer users
are the people who find the data to be most useful in carrying out their duties. Providing easy access to this information
only improves the usefulness of the data and can save time and money for many types of organizations.
The GeoViewer approach to this objective is quite simple. We offer an easy-to-use, intuitive interface to Geographic
Information Systems that provides the casual user with the ability to access the information they need with little or no
formal training.
The main objectives of the system include,
• Ability for non-GIS staff to use the system effectively with less than four hours of training.
• Provide access to interactive water atlas maps from staff desktops through a web browser.
• Locate and view an area of interest anywhere within the service area.
• Provide secured access to only authorized users.
• Map updates are seamlessly delivered to system users without any lag time.
• Provide an extensible system that can be enhanced to provide broader functionality and adapt to future software
and functionality enhancements.
• Enable direct integration with geographic data repositories, asset management information, linked image libraries,
and other information associated with water system infrastructures.
The GeoViewer was designed with the following assumptions in mind:
• Casual GIS users want fast, easy access to relevant information.
• Casual GIS users don't have the time or desire to learn about topology, Shapefiles, ARC/INFO, theories of GIS, etc.
• Casual GIS users don't want to have to add themes, assign colors, change theme properties, etc.
549
Nobel Systems Inc. 1030 Nevada St, Ste 202, Redlands, CA 92374 Tel: (909) 891-0896 Page 7
• Casual GIS users don't want to be bothered with the task of doing map composition. They would much rather could
print their maps with a standardized template.
• Casual GIS users don't typically need to make large maps themselves and are perfectly happy printing an 8 1/2 by 11
map on a laser or inkjet printer. For the more advanced users, GeoViewer Online Supports multiple paper sizes that
are only restricted is the client’s printing device.
• Casual GIS users’ needs are simple -- They need GeoViewer.
• The GeoViewer is a robust and easy-to-use Enterprise Geographic Information Interface. The GeoViewer is
extremely flexible and can be tailored to any dataset.
We at Nobel Systems strongly believe that the functionality provided by GeoViewer will satisfy the needs of the District.
