Title
Classification and Compensation Study - Approval
History
In order to ensure that the Village is being fiscally responsible, while continuing to attract and retain quality employees, the Village Manager’s Office recommends that a Classification and Compensation Study be completed to analyze and update our current compensation program. The compensation strategy will be fair and competitive, while also meeting budgetary restrictions. GovHRUSA (GovHR) is a public-sector management consulting firm specializing in executive recruitment and management consulting.
GovHR has demonstrated a strong work plan, an experienced project team, a solid understanding of the requested services and has successfully completed numerous projects of similar size and scope for public sector clients. In the last three years, they have undertaken over 70 similar projects, with the majority within the Chicago region or State of Illinois. GovHR also provides services solely for public jurisdictions and not-for-profits, which provides a unique understanding and knowledge base of the industry. Project duration to completion is expected at 15 weeks. The GovHR proposal is attached.
Financial Impact
The total project cost is $32,750. Funds are available in the operating budget stabilization fund.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve awarding a contract to GovHR to provide classification and compensation study services as outlined in their July 2, 2018 proposal in an amount not to exceed $32,750.
