DISCUSSION:
On February 7, 2024, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for professional consulting services for the development and administration of Police and Fire promotional examinations. The RFP identified requirements such as ability to conduct in-depth job analyses, develop written examinations, administer assessment centers, and provide a service model that allows for direct communication and partnership between the Human Resources department, Police and Fire personnel, and the consultant. The RFP resulted in responses from five (5) qualified public safety consultants (Cooperative Personnel Services, a California Joint Power Authority, dba CPS HR Consulting, Morris and McDaniel, Inc., Jack Clancy Associates, Talogy, Inc., and Industrial /Organizational Solutions, Inc., dba I/O Solutions, IOS). Representatives from the departments of Fire & Rescue, Police, and Human Resources personnel evaluated the proposals on criteria that included, but not limited to, public safety testing experience, firm background, references, and key personnel experience and qualifications. The evaluation team selected CPS HR Consulting, Industrial/Organizational Solutions, and Jack Clancy Associates based on their ability to meet all required criteria as well as significant experience in the area of public safety examinations services with other law enforcement agencies.
CPS HR Consulting has contracted with the City since 2014. Industrial/Organization Solutions has contracted with the city since 2019 and Jack Clancy has over twenty years of experience providing services to multiple law enforcement agencies through California.
