BY: PLANNING & BUILDING COMMITTEE, JIM RUNESTAD, CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: FACILITIES PLANNING & ENGINEERING/HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES — INSTALLATION OF
KIOSKS AT SOUTH OAKLAND HEALTH CENTER
To The Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Health Division of the Health & Human Services Department is requesting approval
to install kiosks at our South Oakland Health Center, similar to those successfully in use at the North
Oakland Health Center; and
WHEREAS the kiosks allow clients to perform self-service tasks and can also capture client-
specific data; and
WHEREAS the kiosks aid in creating a more seamless health visit process to complement Health
Division capabilities and improve clinic flow; and
WHEREAS, using the kiosks, clients can pre-register, enter demographic data, and complete on-
line questionnaires to expedite intake and provide real-time information to County clinical staff to better
identify needed client services; and
WHEREAS the on-line capture of data via kiosks reduces the need for clients to fill out manual
forms and staff to subsequently type the data into the system; and
WHEREAS management reports can be generated from the kiosk regarding hourly/daily/monthly
service demands to aid in planning and staffing; and
WHEREAS the kiosks were purchased with emergency preparedness funds; and
WHEREAS the cost for installation of five kiosks at SOHC is $7,498, including a $1,000
contingency; and
WHEREAS Facilities Management staff will manage and perform the installation work; and
WHEREAS funding is available to transfer in the amount of $7,498 from within the existing Health
and Human Services budget to the Project Work Order Fund (#40400).
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
authorizes the installation of five kiosks at SOHC at a cost of $7,498.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Planning & Building Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing
resolution.
