SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Solutions West, Inc. provides temporary specialized staff to the Monterey County Department of Social Services (DSS) for the provision of temporary eligibility case workers pursuant to Agreement #A-12656. Due to a continuing need for temporary qualified specialized staff, in September 2014 the original Agreement and subsequent Amendments were subject to an extension through June 2015. At that time it was not anticipated that the contract amount would need to be increased.
