INTRODUCED BY Charlie Franklin, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends the award of a contract for the furnishing of HR/payroll system for use by the Information Technology Department; and,
WHEREAS, additionally, the Human Resources Director requests that she be able to implement an Affordable Care Act component to be added to the contract awarded by Ordinance 4229, dated August 23, 2010, to Paycor, Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to allow for the creation of IRS forms quickly and efficiently, saving manpower; and,
WHEREAS, section 1030.1, Jackson County Code, 1984, eliminates the requirement for competitive bidding when items to be purchased can be obtained from only one source; and,

BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that award be made as recommended by the Director of Finance and Purchasing, and that the Director be and hereby is authorized to execute for the County any documents, including future options to extend, necessary for the accomplishment of the award; and,
