DATE: August 24, 2001 6.R
SUBJECT: Contract Network Technician
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATIONS&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Services Officer to issue a Purchase Order to SBC DataComm in
the amount of$105,478.20 for the purchase, installation, training and maintenance of Tandberg video
conferencing equipment for the Department of Child Support Services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None. The cost of this equipment is budgeted within the State's allocation to Child Support Services to provide
for all equipment and functions needed in achieving the collection and enforcement of child support. There will
be no impact on the General Fund.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
The Department of Child Support Services staff is required to conduct interviews with aid applicants at four
EHSD locations throughout the county, as well as fatherhood interviews. This has been done by staff working
outside the office at EHSD and other locations. This equipment would allow these interviews to be done by our
staff while remaining in our office, thereby making the most efficient use of staff resources.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve this request would limit the department's ability to effectively utilize staff, maintain control of
the work product and hamper the ability to efficiently collect child support for the children of Contra Costa
County.
