SUMMARY
The City is in need of continuing its staff augmentation support throughout various departments citywide. The City has utilized Robert Half International Inc. temporarily to fill staffing vacancies under a contract and amendment totaling $120,523.20.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 with Robert Half International Inc. for $249,476.80, resulting in a total contract amount not to exceed $370,000.
BACKGROUND
The City first engaged Robert Half International Inc. in March 2022 to temporarily fill administrative vacancies in the Information Technology department and City Clerk division. An additional administrative staffing need arose in the Police Department in April 2022, which necessitated continued staffing services from Robert Half.
Founded in 1948, Robert Half International Inc. has a long history of connecting employers with highly skilled job seekers and providing employers access to specialized talent needed to support operational services.
Analysis
The City continues to actively recruit for vacant positions in an extremely tight job market. In an effort to maintain effective City operations while recruitments are in progress, temporary staffing assistance will greatly support various departments in meeting administrative workload and maintaining service levels.
Financial Impacts
Sufficient funds are included in the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 General Fund budget for temporary staffing augmentation services. For Fiscal Year 2023-2024, salary savings from vacant positions may be transferred to the department’s operating budget for consulting services.
