Body
Dear Sir:
On May 2, 2019, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to issue a purchase order and enter into an agreement for Contract 19-RFP-02 Pre-employment Background Checks and Related Services with CareerBuilder Employment Screening, LLC, in an amount not to exceed $40,000.00. CareerBuilder Employment Screening, LLC has changed their legal name to Accurate Employment Screening, LLC. The contract expired on June 30, 2023.
As of June 15, 2023, the attached list of change orders have been approved.
Original Contract Amount $40,000.00
Date of Board Approval 05/02/2019
Cumulative Change Order (6/15/2023) ($13,210.05)
% Change of Original Contract Value (33.03%)
Current Contract Value $26,789.95
Requested Increase or Decrease $2,000.00
New Contract Value $28,789.95
% Change of Current Contract Value 7.46%
Total % Change of Original Contract Value (28.03%)
This change is required due to a larger number of pre-employment background checks for new hires and interns than originally projected. Pre-employment background screening services are necessary to continue the selection process and fill vacant positions.
This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since the change is germane to the contract.
It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to increase the purchase order and amend the agreement for Contract 19-RFP-02 in an amount of $2,000.00 (7.46% of the current contract value), from an amount of $26,789.95, to an amount not to exceed $28,789.95.
