RECOMMENDED) ACTION: APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief information Officer of Department of Information Technology or his designee to execute on behalf of the County an agreement with Abolghasem Malekani to provide programming services in the amount of $176,800.00 effective July 1,2003 through June 30,2004. IL FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funds are budgeted for this contract. DoIT will recover this contracts cost through Service bevel Agreement charges to the Auditor,Assessor,and Treasurer/Tax Collector. III. REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION AND BACKOROUN'Dw. Mr. Abolghasem Malekani comes to us with a vast array of skills that have been vital to our conversion of the legacy Land Information System to the relational Oracle/CICS environment. Prior years of recruiting did not produce an individual with the skill set required to perform the duties as they relate to Land Information Systems. Now with the county wide hiring freeze,it is imperative we beep the services of Mr.Malekani. Our legacy application requires an individual to have a unique set of skills,all of which Mr.Malekani has. He also has a working knowledge of the architecture we are in the process of migrating our legacy system to. He has years of experience in both CICS and SQL. Mr. Malekani is excellent at mentoring our DOIT staff and transferring knowledge to other Land Information System analysts. He has extensive knowledge ofproduct tools supplied to us by IBM. Mr.Malekani's extensive knowledge in all the areas of both new and old technology has assisted the team in devising solutions to challenges that project has encountered. He is vital to the success and completion of this application. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this request is not approved, we will not be able to complete our conversion effort of the Land Information System to the CICS/Oracle environment. This will have an extreme negative impact with the customer base that participates in the Land Information System, This negative impacted will also be felt by our GIS application which we have been working with to coordinate our efforts. Cost overruns will be inevitable,because of the skill level of the staff that will be required to take over the task of Mr.Malekani,in addition to their current workload.
