Staff recommended awarding an employee-engagement survey to Mighty Surveys (successor to CPS HR) not to exceed $14,000 to preserve historic data and provide actionable department-level results; the board approved the authorization.

County staff recommended authorizing an employee-engagement survey with Mighty Surveys (the successor business to CPS HR consultants), not to exceed $14,000, to retain historical comparability with prior surveys and obtain key-driver analysis and open-ended comments. Staff emphasized anonymity protections and recommended a presentation of results to the administration or committee upon completion.

"They retain all the data from CPS HR, so they have the rights to all of that," staff said when explaining the vendor choice and the value of maintaining longitudinal comparability. The board approved authorization not to exceed $14,000; staff said optional presentation elements and QR-code outreach for field employees are available within the quoted price. Members stressed the importance of maximizing participation and following up with department-level action plans after results are presented.

Nut graf: The contract is budgeted and intended to provide the county with a usable employee-engagement baseline and follow-up recommendations; staff highlighted anonymity and post-survey follow-up as key to getting usable results.
