SUBJECT: Authorize a Professional Services Agreement for Technology Staffing and Placement Services with Digital Intelligence Systems Corporation, Hudson Highland Group, Inc., Matrix Resources, Inc., and Sentari Technologies, Inc., for the Information Technology Solutions Department at an Annual Expenditure of Up to $968,725.00 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Professional Services Agreements for technology staffing and placement services with Digital Intelligence Systems Corporation, Hudson Highland Group, Inc., Matrix Resources, Inc., and Sentari Technologies, Inc., for the Information Technology Solutions Department at an annual expenditure of up to $968,725.00. DISCUSSION The purpose of these service agreements is to allow the Information Technology Solutions Department (ITS) to have agreements in place for staff augmentation to assist in the development and implementation of technology projects and services in the City. These projects would include but not be limited to: 1) assistance in the installation and implementation of software packages; 2) assistance for short-term resolution of problems, such as staffing shortages for technology related projects; and 3) staffing placement in City departments such as ITS, Financial Management Systems, Municipal Court and Code Compliance, On May 14, 2009, proposals were received in response to the ITS staffing services Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 08-0335. ITS staff evaluated the proposals and recommends that the requested staff augmentation be awarded to Digital Intelligence Systems Corporation, Hudson Highland Group, Inc., Matrix Resources, Inc., and Sentari Technologies, Inc. Digital Intelligence Systems Corporation, Hudson Highland Group, Inc., are the two new companies selected from the recent RFP. Matrix Resources, Inc., and Sentari Technologies, Inc., have already been providing contractors to the City the past three years. There are currently 13 contractors from Matrix and Sentari, (for projects in ITS and Financial Management Systems and vacancy backfills) with the City. The areas in which the contractors are working include Applications, Desktop, Help Desk, Business Analysis and Planning, Project Management, ITS Operations and Business Coordination. The Fiscal Year 2009 expenditures for these two vendors total $948,7216000 If the current on board contractors stay with the City for all of Fiscal Year 2010 then the projected expenditures would be $1,660,672.00, To help manage expenditures, this request is for $968,725.00 which is expected to take us through May 2010 at which time we will come back to City Council for additional authorization. BID ADVERTISEMENT —The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star Telegram on April 8, 2009 and April 15, 2009. The City received 37 proposals. For each staff augmentation or project request, the four recommended vendors will be provided a City Requirements Statement and given the opportunity to reply to the specific request by providing a Statement of Work or candidate referrals. The vendor which provides the most effective and feasible Statement of Work will be selected. ITS will work with both the customer department and the Budget Department to ensure that adequate funds are budgeted for all projects utilizing these services. Vendors were also asked to submit responses for the cost of placing employees for ITS Department's vacant positions.

The vendors were informed that no guarantee is made for the amount of service that may be purchased under this agreement. MWWBE — The vendors are in compliance with the City's MWBE Ordinance by committing 10 percent MMBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 10 percent. RENEWAL OPTIONS —These agreements may be renewed up to three successive one year terms at the City's option. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligation during the renewal term. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER - An administrative change order or increase may be made for each agreement by the City Manager for an amount up to $25,000.00 and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the participating departments.
