Revised Total Compensation Proposal- March 21, 2006 Page 4 of 16 structures, agency missions, operational and maintenance requirements and staffing expectations. We have extensive experience working in both non-union and union environments (including serving as the management representative in meet & confer and negotiation meetings), working with City Councils, Boards of Supervisors, Merit Boards, Joint Power Authorities and Boards of Directors. We have experience specific to the requirements of this proposal. Although several of our agencies now require us to include private sector data in our market surveys, the City of San Ramon most closely aligns in project parameters to your proposal needs. Over a 6-year period, we conducted three compensation studies (1999; 2001; 2003) to address concerns of the Council. Each study was successfully implemented and Council issues regarding public/private sector inclusion were responsibly addressed by our firm and affirmed by the Council. Our firm's areas of focus are compensation and classification studies; policy/procedure development and employee handbooks; executive search and staff recruitments; performance management issues; and serving as off-site HR Director for our smaller public agencies that need the expertise of an HR Director but do not need a full-time, on-site professional. For the past several years, the firm's significant workload has been in the areas of classification studies and extensive total compensation reviews (samples of work products are included for your review). Without exception, all of our classification and compensation studies have successfully met all of our intended commitments; communications were successful with employees, supervisors, management and union representatives; and we were able to assist each agency in successfully implementing our recommendations. All studies were brought to completion within stipulated time limits and proposed budget.
