Summary of Request:
CliftonLarsonAllen (CLA) is a professional services firm located in Novato, CA, delivering integrated wealth advisory, digital, audit, tax, outsourcing, and consulting services. In April 2024, the County of Mendocino, Auditor-Controller released a Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 013-24 for Independent Audit Services from qualified firms of Certified Public Accountants. CLA submitted a response to the RFP and was selected as the successful vendor on July 26, 2024.
On September 10, 2024, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved Agreement No. BOS-24-141 with CLA for audits and reports including but not limited to annual comprehensive financial reports, single audits, management letters, and other related audit/report services. On September 30, 2024, a first Amendment was executed at Department Head level of approval, adding two additional Statements of Work for 2024 Audit Services, and 2025 Agreed-upon Procedures.
On October 22, 2024 a second Amendment was approved by the BOS, adding a third Statement of Work for 2024 Audit Services including Special Purpose Framework, and increasing the total amount by $24,000 in order to accommodate the Board of State and Community Corrections requirement for the Prop 64 Cohort 2 grant to be audited separately from the overall County audit.
On February 11, 2025, a third Amendment to Agreement No. BOS-24-141 was approved by the BOS, adding a fourth Statement of Work for Agreed-upon Procedures for the Department of Social Services as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and increasing the total amount by $5,000 for a new total of $374,675.
The proposed fourth Amendment to Agreement No. BOS-24-141 adds Exhibit B-1 to the Payment Terms for two additional Single Audit Major Programs (beyond the included five programs) for the year ended June 30, 2024 increasing the total by $10,000, and for additional trial balance audit preparation for year ending June 30, 2025, increase the total by $10,000.
