Committee approves short-term extension for e-filing and vital records vendor while switching to cooperative contract
Summary
Oakland County approved extensions for vital records and e-filing services originating from a 2019 contract while transitioning procurement to a cooperative or state contract; licensing costs cited and a full board agenda placement was indicated.
Oakland County’s Finance Committee approved an exception to extend services for e-filing and vital records (contracts that originated in 2019) to maintain continuity while the county transitions to a cooperative procurement vehicle (MiDeal) or adopts a state contract.
Procurement staff explained the contract expires in May 2026 and the county is pursuing alternative procurement routes; the committee discussed licensing costs (one-year licensing cost mentioned as $13,500) and staff said the county was not moving off the incumbent vendor product but changing how it obtains it. The committee approved the exception and noted the item will appear on the full board agenda for final action.
