SUMMARY:
Scion Staffing Inc., Viri Technology LLC, Protingent Inc., and Robert Half International, Inc. are
staffing and recruitment agencies that specializes in placing information technology
professionals in project and contract-to-hire positions. The City’s Information Technology
department will leverage contractor work through these consultant agencies.
On November 19, 2019, Council approved original contracts with Scion Staffing Inc., Viri
Technology LLC, and Protingent Inc., as well as a contract with Robert Half International, Inc. on
August 06, 2019 in a total contract amount of $2,499,226.49 for services to be provided
through December 31, 2020, for temporary information technology professional services. This
contract approval authorized temporary service contracts with a variety of consultants within
that same budgetary amount. Each contract authorized extensions for successive one-year
terms through the execution of future contract amendments. Information Technology desires to
amend each of these contracts to extend services through December 31, 2021.
If the amendments are approved, the City will pay the Consultants, based on time and
materials, for services provided through December 31, 2021, in a total collective amount of
$1,250,000.00 for all Consultants. IT will monitor fees charged in relation to this collective
budgeted amount to ensure the amounts paid under all temporary consultant contracts do
not exceed $1,250,000.00, which is the amount Council approved as part of the 2021 budget
for IT capital projects.

This Amendment is made between the City and the above referenced Consultant and amends the
original Agreement and all prior Amendments. All other provisions of the original Agreement or prior
Amendments not inconsistent with this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect. For valuable
consideration and by mutual consent of the parties, the Agreement is modified as follows:
1. Time of Completion. Section II of the Agreement, entitled "Time of Completion,"
authorized extensions of the Agreement for successive one (1) years through an amendment authorized
by the parties. Consistent with that provision, the parties desire to amend the Agreement's term as
provided below:
Original Time for Completion December 31, 2020
(insert date)
Revised Time for Completion under N/A
prior Amendments
(insert date)
Revised Time for Completion December 31, 2021

2. Compensation. Section III of the Agreement, entitled "Compensation," is amended to
replace it with the following:
111. COMPENSATION.
A. The City shall pay the Consultant, based on time and materials, for
services provided under this Agreement. The Kent City Council has
established an overall budget of $1,250,000.00 for all temporary
staffing and placement of IT professionals provided by Consultant, and
others retained by the City to provide similar work, through December
31, 2021, and City staff is not authorized to approve any work beyond
that budgeted amount. The City will monitor fees charged in relation to
that collective budgeted amount, and if services provided by
Consultant and others will cause the City to exceed that budgeted
amount, the City will either seek additional approval through a
contract amendment authorized by the Mayor or Council as the Kent
City Code may require, or terminate Consultant's services as provided
for in this Agreement.
Consultant acknowledges and understands that it is not the City's
exclusive provider of these services, but is instead one of several
Consultants who have been retained to provide temporary staffing and
placement services. The City maintains its unqualified right to obtain
these services through other sources. This Agreement is for on -call
and as -needed services, the need for which is determined in the City's
sole judgment and discretion. Consultant shall have no obligation to
continue performance once the "not to exceed" amount limitation has
been attained. The City shall be responsible for all charges for
