APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract
amendment with Metropolitan Van and Storage, Inc. to increase the payment limit by $100,000 to a new payment
limit of $450,000 for archival records storage and furniture storage, for the period February 10, 2010 through January
31, 2011.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$450,000: Administrative Overhead (20% County; 40% State; 40% Federal)
BACKGROUND:
Metropolitan Van and Storage, Inc., was selected as the sole source provider of needed services. Contractor has been
providing archival records storage and furniture storage services to the Employment and Human Services
Department (EHSD) via purchase order for a number of years. Previous surveys have found Contractor to be
competitively priced, and maintains a clean, safe, and secure facility; and they are very responsive to EHSD needs.
In 2009 EHSD issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for archival records and furniture

storage. At that time, Contractor stored over 200,000 cartons of stored media (800,000 individual files). The
department discovered, as a result of this RFP, that the cost to move files and furniture to another facility would be
cost prohibitive including such costs as a fee of $3.00 per box to pull carton (approximately $600,000), stocking fees
of new contract, and charges of new contractor to enter inventory into computer system. EHSD determined that for
the immediate future it will be more cost effective to continue with the current contractor.
This amendment provides funds to cover unanticipated additional usage of Contractor's services.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Contract will be underfunded and County will be unable to pay for authorized services
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
