Subject: |
Agreement No. HR9-962-4689, with Marathon Staffing, for Temporary Staffing Services |
|
|
|
Proposed Motion: |
Move City Council approve Agreement No. HR9-962-4689, with Marathon Staffing, for temporary staffing services, in an amount not to exceed $1,098,125, for one year, April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025, with the option of up to four additional one-year extensions. |
Background/Discussion: |
Temporary staff are utilized primarily by the Community Services Department, the Neighborhood Resources Department, and the Cultural Development Division to fill temporary staffing needs such as class instructors, coaches, sign language interpreters, swim coaches, library aides, teachers, and production assistants. Other City departments that require temporary positions not available through temporary agencies under the State contract also utilize this contract to fill those temporary staffing needs. The contract was originally established when the Internal Revenue Service determined in December 1992 that a number of temporary employees used by City departments should, in fact, be appointed contract employees through a temporary employment agency. The Human Resources Division monitors the use of this agreement to ensure it is used exclusively for this purpose. |
Evaluation: |
On November 15, 2023, City staff issued Request for Proposal No. HR9-962-4689 for temporary staffing services. Notification was sent to all registered vendors. Thirteen proposals were received. DeVau, the current provider with whom the city has maintained a contract for more than twenty years, provided notification that it will no longer be offering temporary staffing services. The Evaluation Committee evaluated the proposals and recommends award to Marathon Staffing, which submitted the most advantageous offer to the City in accordance with the evaluation criteria based on qualifications, method of approach, and pricing. The term of this Agreement is April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025, with the option of up to four additional one-year extensions. |
Financial Implications: |
Funds for temporary staff will be from various departments’ professional contract services fund accounts (5219), except for the Housing Division which will utilize a portion from HUD. |
