RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Buck Consultants, effective April 1, 2017, to extend the term from April 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 and increase the payment limit by $70,988 to a new payment limit of $924,488 to continue providing support and consultation for employee health and benefits issues.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Program costs for these services will be paid from the Benefits Funds that receive revenues from monthly premiums charged to County Departments. Extending the current contract with Buck Consultants will allow Human Resources Benefits Division the opportunity to finish the 2018 Benefits Rates, and develop a thorough and complete request for proposal (RFP) for a potential new welfare brokerage firm.
