Commission okays six-month IT contract to retain outside support
Summary
The commission approved a temporary six-month contract with IT Bytes LLC at $3,500 per month (total $21,000) to retain an IT contractor and stabilize county systems while staff plans longer-term budget solutions.
Duchesne County commissioners on June 9 voted to contract with IT Bytes LLC for six months to provide IT support and stabilize county systems.
Matt Garrison described renegotiations to reduce costs and to secure a provision that would lower hourly rates for work beyond contracted hours. Commissioners discussed budgeting for a more permanent equipment replacement next year but said short-term support was needed to keep services running and to retain a key contractor (Scott) whose expertise supports storage and system integration.
A motion to approve the contract at $3,500 per month (total $21,000 for six months) passed on the record. Commissioners indicated the contract and related work will be considered again during the budget process so longer-term funding or staff adjustments can be planned.
Next steps: IT staff will onboard IT Bytes services and return in the September budget process with proposals for permanent solutions.
