RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE AS-NEEDED TEMPORARY STAFFING SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH AMERIT CONSULTING, INC., INCREASING THE AGREEMENT AMOUNT BY $200,000, INCREASING THE AGGREGATE TOTAL OF THE AGREEMENT FROM $990,000 TO $1,190,000 FOR SERVICES THROUGH JUNE 30, 2020
Body
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This Agreement provides the San Diego Unified Port District (District) with temporary staffing services on an as-needed basis. The term of the Agreement is from July 12, 2017, and ends June 30, 2020. Funds under the Agreement are subject to annual budgeting with the current total aggregate amount not to exceed $990,000.
This 1st Amendment would increase the Agreement amount by an additional $200,000, increasing the total aggregate amount from $990,000 to $1,190,000, in order to continue short-term relief during leaves of absences, vacancies, and other planned or unplanned operational requirements needing personnel resources or filing gaps in employment.
On September 6, 2017, the County of San Diego public health officer declared a local public health emergency due to the ongoing Hepatitis A outbreak. On October 13, 2017, Governor Edmund G. Brown, Jr., issued an emergency proclamation for the State of California due to the outbreak.
At the time of award, $330,000 was evenly allocated for each of the three fiscal years with an approved budgeted amount of $259,000 in FY 17/18. Temporary staffing resources were secured as part of an action plan to prevent the spread of Hepatitis A on Tidelands. Additionally, due to vacancies and other unplanned gaps in employment, $864,447, or 87% of the total aggregate amount of this three year Agreement has already been committed through June 30, 2018. This additional $200,000 is requested to recoup the unplanned expenses for the preventative efforts from the Hepatitis A outbreak. Funding is available via departmental salary savings.
