DATE: February 6, 2001 •� � Costa
SUBJECT: Amend Contract with EORM, Inc. County
1.6
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Risk Manager to amend the Contract with EORM, Inc. to increase the
payment amount by $150,000 to a total $300,000 limit for additional consulting services with no change
in the contract termination date.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Costs for consulting services are funded through the Workers' Compensation Self-insurance Trust Fund.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION:
EORM, Inc. is a consulting firm consisting of staff possessing specialized technical skills in such areas as
indoor air quality, infectious disease control, contractor safety, ergonomics, chemical handling and
safety, industrial hygiene, as well as general and environmental compliance. The County initially
retained their services when it became apparent that the loss control program would be relying very
heavily on this type of consulting expertise for creation, development and implementation assistance with
compliance management, a component of loss control.
The existing compliance management program within the County cannot be implemented without
continued support from the above-described level of consulting expertise. Consulting staff are necessary
to assist the Assistant Risk Manager for Loss Control to finalize development of programs, procedures
and training to move the program forward to completed development.
