Retroactive Payment to Preferred Staffing, Inc .
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S) :
Ratify purchase of services from Preferred Staffing, Inc . , and
authorize the County Auditor-Controller to pay the $21, 376 . 88
outstanding balance for provision of nursing registry services at
Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health
Centers .
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for this Contract is included in the Health Services
Department Enterprise I budget .
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S) :
On August 15, 2000 , the Board of Supervisors approved Contract
#26-260-6 (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #26-260-7)
with Preferred Staffing, Inc . , for the period from August 1, 2000
through July 31, 2001, to provide nursing registry services at
Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health
Centers .
Services were both requested by County staff and provided by the
Contractor in good faith. Because of administrative oversight by
both the County and Contractor, use of the Contractor' s services
exceeded the authorized limits .
Services were requested and provided beyond the payment limit and
by the end of July 31, 2001, charges of $141, 376 . 88 had been
incurred, of which $120, 000 has been paid and $21, 376 . 88 remains
outstanding.
The Department is requesting that the amount due to the Contractor
be paid. This can be accomplished by the Board of Supervisors
ratifying the actions of the County employees in obtaining
provision of services of a value in excess of the contract payment
limit . This will create a valid obligation on the part of the
County, retroactively authorizing all payments made by the
Auditor-Controller up to now, and authorizing payment of the
balance .
