IN RE: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT WORKSTATION SERVICES UNIT POSITION
CHANGES
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, Chairperson, Ladies, and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Information Technology and Risk Management departments have conducted a
review of the operations within the Workstation Services Unit regarding the responsibilities of the
Customer Service Technician 11 and III classifications that are responsible for any computer, printer and
other automated equipment routine use, maintenance and repairs within and outside the County's
campus; and
WHEREAS it is inherent that the classifications of Customer Service Technician II and III utilize
County owned vehicles and equipment as necessity to complete installations, repairs and maintenance
of computer workstations, software, and automated equipment that cannot be completed virtually; and
WHEREAS the County's contracts with vendors state that the vendors are to provide all
equipment and supplies required to complete the specific services, and there are no provisions that
permit the use of vehicles by outside vendors; and
WHEREAS the County requests vendors to provide auto liability insurance on their own, the
County is still liable for the risk under the "permissive use" clause of the County's self-insured retention
policy at $250,000 per occurrence; and
WHEREAS it was concluded by Risk Management that although coverage by private contracts
are provided, it was not sufficient enough to cover the claims of damage to County vehicles and
equipment; and
WHEREAS in order to reduce the County's liability, it is recommended to convert the six (6)
current contracted positions to full time eligible employees as currently utilized; and
WHEREAS to accomplish this, the Information Technology Department proposes to create five
(5) full-time eligible PR Funded Customer Service Technician 11 positions in the Technical Systems &
Networking unit; and
WHEREAS it is also proposed to create one (1) full-time eligible PR Funded Customer Service
Technician III position in the Technical Systems & Networking unit.
