Summary of Request:
In June 2022, ClientFirst Technology Consulting was one of three vendors prequalified through a competitive process for information technology project management and technical assistance services, and one of two vendors selected for on-call services.
This contract will allow ClientFirst, using the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Controls/Cyber Security Assessment, to provide Mendocino County with a baseline for where County security controls should be and also highlight any areas of cybersecurity vulnerability. ClientFirst, will then provide the Executive Office - Information Technology (IT) Division with recommendations and a plan to address these shortcomings. The IT Division is recommending approving this contract.
The County has existing agreements with the same vendor for similar consulting services, which combined will total $163,410 if all agreements and amendments to agreements are approved. This aggregate amount is over the $50,000 limit of the Purchasing Agent to enter into agreements pursuant to County Code Section 2.32.020, and as such the Division is bringing this agreement to the Board of Supervisors for approval.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve and provide direction to staff.
