9 <br /> THE CITY OF <br /> ,, AIM CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT <br /> pL£ASANTON® <br /> April 17, 2018 <br /> Finance <br /> TITLE: APPROVE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES <br /> AGREEMENT WITH ACCOUNTING PRINCIPALS, INC., dba AJILON <br /> PROFESSIONAL STAFFING <br /> SUMMARY <br /> The City's purchasing manual establishes the types and values of goods and services <br /> requiring City Manager and City Council approval. The Finance Department created a <br /> Professional Services Agreement with Accounting Principals, Inc., dba Ajilon <br /> Professional Staffing (Ajilon), for temporary staffing services in the amount of$100,000 <br /> which was approved by the City Manager in December of 2016. The Finance <br /> Department had increased need for temporary staffing services throughout the year due <br /> primarily to staffing shortages caused by an employee on an extended leave of <br /> absence. Due to ongoing temporary staffing needs, the department is anticipating <br /> invoices in excess of the $100,000 threshold requiring City Council approval. In <br /> addition, staff may need to use Ajilon services over the next year to fill potential <br /> vacancies for which having a contract in place will be beneficial. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Staff recommends that the City Council approve the First Amendment to the <br /> Professional Services Agreement with Accounting Principals, Inc., dba Ajilon <br /> Professional Staffing, extending the agreement term to June 30, 2019 and increasing its <br /> value by an additional $150,000. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> The actual costs for temporary staffing are budgeted by the departments utilizing the <br /> services. The Finance Department has accounted for anticipated temporary staffing <br /> expenditures in its budget. <br />
