Village of Sussex committee recommends DeKind Computer Consultants for IT services, authorizes co‑managed model
Summary
The committee voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve DeKind Computer Consultants and authorize a transition to a co‑managed IT services model; DeKind representatives were present for questions.
The Village of Sussex Finance & Personnel Evaluation Committee on May 5 voted unanimously to recommend that the Village Board approve DeKind Computer Consultants for the Village’s IT services and to authorize a transition to a co‑managed services model. Trustee Ben Jarvis moved the recommendation and Member Michael Carlson seconded; the motion carried 4-0.
Representatives from DeKind — Jeremy Cummings, Nick Thomas and Brandon Barre — were present at the meeting for questions from committee members. The committee’s recommendation asks the Village Board to approve DeKind and to authorize Village administration to implement a co‑managed approach, which typically means Village IT staff will work alongside an external vendor; the transcript records the recommendation but does not detail contract length, costs, or service-level specifics.
The committee’s recorded vote was Scott Adkins — yes; Ben Jarvis — yes; Robert Landgraf — yes; Michael Carlson — yes. The recommendation will be forwarded to the Village Board for final approval and any contract negotiations managed by Village administration.
