RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21822 to add two (2) Network Administrator II (LNSB) positions ($6,530-$7,937) in the Information Technology unit of the Health Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The additional costs associated with this action are approximately $294,205 annually with benefits, including $67,631 in pension costs. Costs will be 100% funded by Third Party Revenues.

BACKGROUND:

Network Administrator II’s take on higher level responsibilities among the Contra Costa Health Services IT infrastructure group. They continue to learn new systems and troubleshooting methodologies. Part of this group are the ECSM (Epic Certified Systems Manager) team, whom have primary responsibilities to upgrade, maintain, and provide reliable uptime to Contra Costa Health’s Electronic Medical Record Systems. This ongoing support includes demonstrated project management skills, system/network management, monitoring; and advanced troubleshooting of servers, networks, devices, and workstations. Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) relies on the skills and availability of the ECSM team, whom the Health Services Information Technology unit would like to add two Network Admin II positions towards. Currently, these projects are being handled by two (2) Network Administrator I's and the Department has determined the need for these projects to be handled by Network Administrator II positions due to the complexity involved.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved and without additional staff, Health Services Information Technology will not have the appropriate personnel to support its infrastructure group.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
