Duchesne County authorizes six-month IT consulting agreement with Matt Bergenson
Summary
Commissioners approved a corrected six-month consulting contract with Matt Bergenson, approving a $3,500 monthly retainer (up to 60 hours/month) while asking staff to reconcile overlap with existing vendor services.
The Duchesne County Commission on Nov. 10 approved a six-month consulting services agreement with IT consultant Matt Bergenson, after questions and corrections to the contract's dates and scope.
Under the approved terms, Bergenson will be paid a monthly retainer of $3,500 that the contract describes as covering up to 60 hours per month; the paperwork also references flexibility "averaging up to 30 hours per week," language commissioners flagged as inconsistent. Commissioners discussed potential overlap with the county's existing IT vendor, IT Bites, and whether the contract duplicates services already provided.
"He's asking for a monthly retainer of 3,500, which pays up to 60 hours," a commissioner stated during deliberations, summarizing contract terms. Commissioners and staff said the agreement will be used to fill short-term IT needs during a transition period and includes termination protections; they asked staff to reconcile vendor responsibilities and confirm budget placement for the remainder of the year.
The commission voted to authorize the agreement with corrected effective dates and requested staff track costs and report back on any overlap with existing contracts.
