Consent Agenda Subject : 7.13 Agreement between The School Board of Okaloosa County, Florida, and KEV Group, Inc., presented by Julie Perry, Chief Financial Officer, and recommended by the Superintendent for approval. Meeting : Mar 27, 2023 - Workshop Meeting Type : Action (Consent) Preferred Date : Mar 27, 2023 Absolute Date : Mar 27, 2023 Fiscal Impact : Yes Dollar Amount : $53,930.00 Budgeted : Yes Budget Source : General Fund Fixed Charges Recommended Action : Motion to approve agreement between The School Board of Okaloosa County, Florida, and KEV Group, Inc. Public Content School Funds Online is the bookkeeping software used by schools for Internal Funds and is a part of KEV Group, Inc. Schools currently have the ability to collect online payments through My School Bucks which are automatically posted to the correct Internal Funds account; however, School Funds Online will no longer support automatic posting of payments through My School Bucks beginning July 1, 2023. Food Service will continue to use My School Bucks because this software posts directly to student accounts. The debit/credit card processing fee for food service is 3.95% plus 35 cents and is paid by the purchaser as a convenience fee. Child Care fees and District Activities will also continue to use My School Bucks with purchasers paying a convenience fee of 4.95%. KEV Group, Inc., has online payment software known as School Cash Management Solution. We recommend changing Internal Funds online payments to the School Cash Management Solution software as automatic posting to Internal Funds accounts is extremely important. The current debit/credit card processing fee for Internal Funds in My School Bucks is 4.95% and is paid by the purchaser. The debit/credit card processing fee for School Cash Management would be 4.00% plus 10 cents per item. We recommend schools charge the same price for items whether payment is made by cash, check, or online rather than charging a convenience fee to parents paying online. Prices may be increased slightly to pay the debit/credit card processing fees. By making the prices the same, participation should increase. This will make it easier for parents to pay for their student's items, and there will be less cash/checks for teachers to collect and bookkeepers to process. A new feature in School Cash Management Solution is that schools will have the ability to attach a group of students to an item for sale. The parents of those students would then receive an e-mail about the item for sale with a direct link to be able to purchase. Teachers will be able to access reports to see who has paid online. Payments, less the debit/credit card processing fee, will be deposited daily to each school's Internal Funds checking account and posted automatically to the correct Internal Funds accounts. KEV Group, Inc., will retain the debit/credit card processing fee to pay to the appropriate companies. Many schools have expressed an interest in taking credit/debit cards in person for concession stands. Kev Group also has software called POSPro that may be used for this purpose. In order to take credit/debit cards in person, schools will need at least one Clover device which would be purchased from Kev Group. Each Clover device costs $510.00, and the POSPro software has an annual cost of $380.00 per device. The secondary schools were surveyed to see if they were interested in participating in this program. A total of 46 devices have been requested. The total initial cost breakdown is shown below.
