Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a service price agreement is to establish firm pricing for services, for a specific term, which are ordered on an as needed basis according to annual budgetary appropriations. The estimated amount is intended as guidance rather than a cap on spending under the agreement, so that actual need combined with the amount budgeted will determine the amount spent under this agreement.
This service price agreement will provide for human resources digital temporary workforce staffing system for Citywide use accessible to the City through the proposer's digital/online portal that will enable the City to digitally manage temporary staffing, placement, departmental billing, and organizational invoicing needs. Temporary labor contracts allow the City to mitigate employee turnover, retirement, longer than anticipated time frame for hiring new employees and unplanned or urgent projects. The new specifications identified several additional job classifications not previously available on the prior contract. Temporary employees may be hired by the City any time after twelve consecutive weeks of work as a temporary without any additional fees or charges.
