TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: Phil Batchelor, Contra
COStaCounty Administrator
DATE: June 15, 1987 County
SUBJECT: TRAINING CONTRACT WITH MANPOWER, INC.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Chairwoman of the Board of Supervisors to execute
on behalf of the County a service contract with Manpower, Inc. for the
period June 1, 1987 through July 31, 1989 to provide County departments
appropriate training in office automation through the use of Manpower' s
Skillware training package. The cost to the County will vary depending
upon the amount of service units utilized. The County is not obligated
under the terms of this contract to any minimum number of service units.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
If the recommended action is approved, it will result in departments being
charged for the training provided to staff. The price per person depends
on which training session is taken and the number of people being trained
simultaneously. Costs will vary from $450 per three-day session for an
individual to $192 per person when five people are trained simultaneously.
Half-day classes would vary from $80 to $90 per person. These prices
include discounts from 10% to 20%, which would apply depending on the
County' s purchase of certain departmental hardware from IBM, with whom
Manpower, Incorporated, has a marketing Assistance Program agreement.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION:
The County proposes to contract with Manpower, Inc. , to provide training to
County departments in the use of personal computer software plus training
in the use of mainframe installed office automation software such as PROFS
and DW370 . Data Processing Services does not currently have space or staff
to provide all the office automation training required by County
departments. To supplement the training offered by Data Processing
Services, it is in the County' s best interest to contract with vendors for
suitable classes at competitive prices.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, departments will have to obtain their own
software training for both personal computers and office automation
software on the mainframe at substantially higher prices.
