Hourly rates are low and staff time is saved processing applications and hiring personnel for temporary assignments.The contract also affords the departments the opportunity to obtain personnel with only a 24-hour notice. In addition,at least 15 current or past City personnel started out as Temporary Staff and were able to obtain full time positions with the City based on their work performance as temporary employees. A cooperative (co-op) invitation to bid was issued by the City of Coral Springs on behalf of the participating agencies referenced in the specifications.The City of Coral Springs has been the lead agency for the Temporary Employment Services Contract for the past twelve years.The position classifications are categorized as either Administrative and Industrial.Twenty-seven agencies in the co-op will be utilizing the contract, therefore a total of four vendors are needed for each category. Six vendors were awarded. Two of the six vendors provide both categories of staffing. None of the incumbents are being awarded as their pricing was too high.The old contract is valid through April 2020,which allows time to award these contracts and move temp staff to the new vendors. Departments may award to any or all six of the vendors. Vendors receive a percentage markup of the hourly salary cost for each temporary professional. Each position has an hourly pay range.Vendors also receive additional fees for various levels of additional background checks.See chart on page 7. Human Resources will guide departments on how to transition current temps to one of the new companies. The way the new contract works is each vendor has an info sheet with the pay range for the positions as well as a percentage markup rate.The using department and Human Resources will negotiate with the vendor on the hourly rate,which the vendor will then markup per the contracted percentage.This approach will prevent increasing hourly rates when the minimum wage increases occur and will allow rates to stay current with the cost of living.

Agreement #4 -22nd Century Technologies Inc. Agreement #5 - COCCHHBHA Enterprises Inc. d/b/a CEI Staffing Agreement #6 -SOFTHQ Inc Agreement #7 - REDCON Solutions Group LLC. Agreement BACKGROUND/ DESCRIPTION: The Southeast Florida Governmental Purchasing Cooperative Group (Co-Op), began approximately 28 years ago with a small group of Broward County Cities. The Co-Op has grown to 52 entities from Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. The Co-Op combines the buying power of the members for products or services purchased to achieve the best available pricing under a term contract. The Co-Op also reduces staff time spent on bidding procedures by having a lead agency complete the bidding for all members that wish to participate in that procurement. The City utilizes Temporary Employment Services in lieu of full-time staff and part-time personnel on a regular basis. The hourly rates are low and staff time is saved processing applications and hiring personnel for temporary assignments. The contract also affords the departments the opportunity to obtain personnel with only a 24-hour notice. In addition, at least 15 current or past City personnel started out as Temporary Staff and were able to obtain full time positions with the City based on their work performance as a temporary employee. City of Coral Springs Commission Meeting Agenda Item Summary Sheet Meeting: (date) Subject: {Header in subsequent pages must match subject line} The City of Coral Springs has been the lead agency for the Temporary Employment Services Contract for the past twelve years. A new bid was issued on August 6, 2019 and twenty-six responses were received. Due to twenty-seven agencies in the Co-Op utilizing the contract, a total of 4 vendors are needed for each category of Administrative job positions and Industrial job positions. Copies to: D.
