to prepare a Central Services Cost Allocation Plan for purposes of
recovering overhead costs from grants for fiscal year 1986, at a
cost not to exceed $15,000.00, with funds therefor, allocated from
special programs and accounts, be approved.
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Finance recognizes the firm of David M. Griffith
and Associates, Ltd., as one of the most qualified and cost
effective firms in the country for the preparation of Central
Services Cost Allocation Plans in accordance with the federal
guidelines to recover costs from grants. This firm, after
developing the plan, negotiates it with the federal government.
These plans are used to support recovery of administrative funds
from various federal grants and other sources.
Resolution No. 86-326 authorized the City Manager to enter into a
contract with the firm of David M. Griffith & Associates, Ltd., to
prepare a Central Services Cost Allocation Plan. Work performed
under that resolution raised $655,000 in revenues to the City.
Since it is necessary to prepare a new plan based on fiscal year
1986 costs, we are hereby requesting continuing with David M.
Griffith & Associates, Ltd., for another year.
