RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE an increase in the payment limit for the contract between the Probation Department and Behavioral Interventions (B.I.), Incorporated, dated February 1, 2018 in the amount of $40,000 from $175,000 to a new contract payment limit of $215,000 to provide electronic monitoring services and equipment, with no extension in the term of the agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$40,000, 100% General Fund
BACKGROUND:
Behavioral Interventions (B.I.), Incorporated provides electronic monitoring services on behalf of the Probation Department for designated probationers. There has been an increase in the number of probationers placed on electronic monitoring in the current contract year. This has led to a need to increase the contract amount to cover the additional costs of equipment rental and monitoring services.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Probation Department will not have insufficient funds to contract with a vendor for electronic monitoring services.
