* Lake County currently manages multiple contracts for Temporary Employee Services that expire in 2026 with no options for renewal.
* The County requires temporary staffing services to address variable needs across departments that demand general administrative support to professional and credentialed positions.
* Lake County issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Temporary Employee Services, extending to 155 vendors and receiving sealed proposals from 61 vendors.
* Based on the criteria set forth in the RFP, an interdepartmental evaluation committee determined that awarding contracts to multiple vendors would provide maximum flexibility to Lake County to meet staffing needs.
* This resolution authorizes the Purchasing Agent to enter into a contract with each of the following vendors: LanceSoft, Inc. (Herndon, Virginia), The Salem Group (Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois), and Vastek Group (Chula Vista, California) for general support positions to professional roles and Actalent, Inc. (Hanover, Maryland) for specialized positions that require professional credentials.
* This resolution authorizes the Lake County departments to access the four awarded vendors to provide Temporary Employee Services that are specifically authorized in the department budget or are grant-funded.
* For any positions not budgeted or grant-funded, the responsible department must obtain separate committee action before utilizing the agreements if the cost exceeds thresholds established by the Purchasing Ordinance.
