Amendment No. 7 to Request for Qualified Vendor Agreement (RFQVA) No. DDD 710000 between the Arizona Department of Economic Security, Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD), and Gila County, Gila Employment and Special Training (GEST).

Background Information

On September 16, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 1 to RFQVA No. DDD 710000. Upon receipt of Amendment No. 1, the Arizona Department of Economic Security (ADES) notified the Gila County GEST Division that the amendment needed to be corrected and returned to ADES as soon as possible. Former Chairman Pastor signed the corrected Amendment No. 1 on October 6, 2014, and it was then resubmitted to ADES.

The Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 2 on April 18, 2017.

The Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 3 on May 9, 2017.

The Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 4 on October 10, 2017.

The Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 5 on September 11, 2018.

Per DES Amendment No. 6 was skipped in the numbering process; therefore, Amendment No. 7 will follow Amendment No. 5.

Evaluation

By signing Amendment No. 7, Gila County, GEST, is acknowledging a revision to Section 5 - Service Requirements Scope of Work and Section 6 - DES/DDD Standard Terms and Conditions for Qualified Vendors. The submittal of said document will allow the GEST Department to maintain a Qualified Vendor Agreement with the DDD.

Conclusion

Amendment No. 7 to the RFQVA No. DDD 710000 will allow the GEST Department to continue to provide DDD services to residents of Gila County, and remain in compliance with federal and state regulations and provisions of the RFQVA.

Recommendation

The Community Services Department Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve Amendment No. 7 to the RFQVA No. DDD 710000 in order to acknowledge changes to Section 5 - Service Requirements Scope of Work, and Section 6 - DES/DDD Standard Terms and Conditions for Qualified Vendors, so that the GEST Division can continue to provide services to eligible residents of Gila County.

Suggested Motion

Approval of Amendment No. 7 to Request for Qualified Vendor Agreement No. DDD 710000 between the Arizona Department of Economic Security, Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD), and Gila County, Gila Employment and Special Training Division, to allow for the continued provision of DDD services to eligible residents of Gila County, and remain in compliance with federal and state regulations and provisions of the Qualified Vendor Agreement.
