RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution
authorizing the acquisition of microcomputers and related peripherals and software, from
Unisys Corporation, under existing State of Florida Contract No. 250-040-96-1, and from
various vendors under Metropolitan Dade County Contracts (1059-2/98-OTR-CW and 1941-
2/96-0TR-CH9 for the NET/Neighborhood Jobs Program at a proposed amount of $52,000.
Funding is available from two (2) grant sources, CDBG and JTPA.
BACKGROUND
The NETINeighborhood Jobs Program has been awarded Federal and State funds to operate
the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program and year-round JTPA Classroom
Training and Job Placement Programs through the South Florida Employment and Training
Consortium: (SFETC); U.S. Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services, and the U.S.
Department of Refugee Resettlement Programs, to provide employment and training
assistance to refugee and new entrants; and the U.S. Department of Labor Project
Independence Program, funded to provide training and placement assistance to welfare
recipients. The total annual projected service level is in excess of 4,000 individuals.
A condition of all the aforementioned contracts includes the provision of outreach and
recruitment activities, eligibility determination services, supportive services distribution, case -
management, job placement, follow-ups, and benchmark payments to vendors.
The current client assessment, case -management, supportive services, job placement and
follow-up systems are maintained manually. The manual tracking of services has shown to be
time consuming and ineffective, especially in light of the increased demand for program
services. In order to provide an effective and efficient means to track services, it is respectfully
requested that the City Commission authorize the acquisition of Microcomputers and related
peripherals and software, from Unisys Corporation.
The estimated cost for this request is $52,000. Funding is available through the above
referenced grants.
