RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #23-613-7 with Bayside Solutions, Inc., a corporation, effective March 22, 2022, to amend Contract #23-613-5 (as amended by 23-613-6) to increase the payment limit by $500,000, from $2,000,000 to a new payment limit of $2,500,000, and extend the termination date from June 30, 2022, to December 31, 2024, for additional temporary consulting, technical support and recruiting services for hard to fill positions for the Health Services Department’s Information Technology Unit.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in additional annual expenditures of up to $500,000 over a 3-year period and will be funded by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I (No rate increase).

BACKGROUND:

This contractor has been contracting with the department since January 2017 under contract #23-613, for the provision of temporary specialized project management staff, for their Project Management Office. The department relies on temporary staffing and recruitment agencies for coverage during staff absences/leaves and to find qualified candidates for specialized and hard to fill positions.

On April 28, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved contract #23-613-5 with Bayside Solutions, Inc., in the amount of $2,000,000 for the provision of qualified temporary consulting and technical support services, and contract-to-hire and/or direct placement candidates for hard-to-fill positions in the Health Services Department’s Information Systems Unit for the period July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2022. On January 19, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved contract amendment agreement #23-613-6 with Bayside Solutions, Inc., effective January 1, 2021, to modify the rates for temporary consulting, technical support and recruiting services for hard to fill positions, with no change in the payment limit of $2,000,000 or term July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2022.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #23-613-7 will allow the contractor to continue providing temporary consulting, technical support, and recruiting services for hard to fill positions to the Health Services Department’s Information Technology Unit also allowing the Unit to respond to the increasing needs of other Health Services divisions due to the onset of Covid-19, through December 31, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the Health Services Information Technology Unit will not be able to add the necessary temporary staff as needs arise and would not be able to respond to the needs of all of Health Services in a timely manner.
