PROPOSED TRANSFER OF FUNDS

 

Department:  Cook County Sheriff’s Office 

 

Request:  Fund Transfer

 

Reason:  The transfer is needed for Sierra Ruggedized Modems to be installed in the Sheriff’s Office vehicles.

 

From Account(s):  11100.1217.15050.540135 (Maintenance of Data Processing Equipment)

 

To Account(s): 11100.1217.21120.560225 (Computer & Data Proc Supplies) 

 

Total Amount of Transfer:  $325,666.00

 

On what date did it become apparent that the receiving account would require an infusion of funds in order to meet current obligations?  What was the balance in the account on that date, and what was the balance 30 days prior to that date?

 

The Sheriff’s Office received a quote for the modems on 9/16/2022. The balance in the account on 9/16/2022 was $0.00. The balance 30 days earlier was $0.00. 

 

How was the account used for the source of transferred funds identified?  List any other accounts that were also considered (but not used) as the source of the transferred funds.

 

The Sheriff’s IT Maintenance account is projected to have a surplus at fiscal year-end. This is the only account considered. 

 

Identify any projects, purchases, programs, contracts, or other obligations that will be deferred, delayed, or canceled as a result of the reduction in available spending authority that will result in the account that funds are transferred from.

 

None. 

 

If the answer to the above question is “none” then please explain why this account was originally budgeted in a manner that caused an unobligated surplus to develop at this point in the fiscal year.

 

Certain IT projects slated for FY2022 were moved to FY2023 based on supply chain issues and shifting priorities within the Sheriff’s Office. The decision to move these projects was dependent on evolving conditions related to recent changes in operational requirements and supply chain logistics outside of direct control of the Sheriff’s Office.
