RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Protiviti Government Services, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $115,000 to a new payment limit of $200,000, for temporary placement of a computer programmer, for the period of March 21, 2017 through March 20, 2018, Countywide.  

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Various Special Revenue Funds

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department is in the process of creating decision support tools for asset management. Public Works Information Technology division (IT) does not currently have the capacity to keep up with requests. The contract programming resource provided under this contract will be tasked with creating the software tools necessary to provide the Public Works Director and the County Administrators Office with meaningful decision support data for asset management. The consultant wills cross-train Public Works IT staff on the programming methodology that is used for this work.  
  
On March 21, 2017, the Public Works Director approved the initial contract with Protiviti for $85,000 for temporary placement of a computer programmer. This original contract amount was based on an estimated ‘level of effort’ that turned out to be too low; the additional funds provided by this amendment will allow for the creation of the ‘Debt Service Application’ that was called out in the contracts Service Plan.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without Board approval, Public Works IT will not be able to provide the Public Works Director and County Administrator with the decision support tools that are necessary for the effective management of the County’s real estate portfolio.
