DISCUSSION:
The County of Humboldt has contracted with Municipal Resource Group (MRG) for many years for investigative services, including reviewing of documents, interviews with staff members, phone conferencing, preparation of summaries or reports and the preparation of appropriate factual determinations. MRG will investigate allegations related to the work environment and provide services that are reasonably required.
The current professional services agreement with MRG was approved by the Humboldt County Purchasing Agent on June 26, 2024 in an amount not to exceed $70,000 with a term through June 30, 2025. This agreement covers services provided for investigative services to the County of Humboldt. Due to the significant volume of cases and unforeseen issues, the current agreement needs an amendment to increase the not-to-exceed amount by $30,000. Staff would like to continue using the professional services of Municipal Resource Group through the remainder of the fiscal year, and recommends increasing the total cost of the agreement to a total not-to-exceed amount of $100,000 for the term through June 30, 2025.
