Title
Resolution to Approve Contract with Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. (I/O) to Conduct AAPD Promotional Assessment ($32,755.00)
Memorandum
The following resolution requests approval of a contract with Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. (I/O) to conduct promotional assessment for the purpose of creating a promotional list for ranks of Sergeant and Lieutenant.
Current vacancies of sworn police supervisors exist and retirements of sworn police supervisors over the next 12-18 months are expected to occur.
It is always an uncertainty how many eligible employees will choose retirement when they become eligible.
To ensure continuity of command, and in order to plan leadership succession, it is necessary to establish a promotional eligibility list well in advance of the date when these potential vacancies may occur in order to provide maximum flexibility and options for the employer.
Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. will create and administer the assessment for both the Sergeant and Lieutenant promotional eligibility list. Promotions may then be made from this list as the need for promotions arises on an annual basis.
During the competitive proposal process, Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. emerged as an experienced organization that has done similar testing for other agencies and is very well regarded. Additionally Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. submitted a competitively priced proposal and was the lowest responsible submitter to the Request for Proposals (RFP).
Industrial Organizational Solutions, Inc. received Human Rights approval on September 28, 2011, and complies with the living wage ordinance.
