body
DEPARTMENT: Information Technology
ORIGINATOR: Dee White
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approved by Ken Klein 4/8/23
PURPOSE: The purpose of this ECAF is to approve and execute Amendment 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with Judge Technical Services, Inc. for Augmented IT Staffing to increase funding and include required regulatory terms and conditions for ARPA CLFR related work.
BACKGROUND: The IT Department is responsible for the planning, management, control, security, operation and use of information technology, backbone network, telecommunications, information processing, equipment, data, computer workstations, connected devices, purchased services and software. From time to time, additional professional staffing is needed to assist during times of peak workload or to provide assistance in areas where IT lacks expertise or resources. In accordance with RFP 19-18, an agreement was executed with Judge Technical Services, Inc. for five years plus five one-year optional extensions. Beginning in 2023, the Office of Resilience and Recovery (ORR) will utilize staffing provided by Judge Technical Services to perform work on IT projects funded through Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Funds pursuant to the American Rescue Plan act (ARPA CLFR). This Amendment 1 will add terms and conditions to the Agreement that Judge Technical Services must comply with when performing ARPA CLFR- related work. Additionally, due to an increase in expected usage, additional funding in the amount of $250,000 is requested. Approval of this Amendment 1 will allow an increase in funding to meet the expected usage through December 23, 2028, and require Judge Technical Services, Inc. to adhere to the regulatory requirements related to ARPA-CLFR related work.
