Agenda Item
a. Frontline Services Approval (Not to Exceed $767,264.67)
Summary: Presented by: Mrs. Tasha Davis Mills, Chief Human Resources Officer, Division of Human Resources
Request: It is requested that the DeKalb County Board of Education approve the contract for Human Capital Management - Applicant Tracking, Absence & Substitute Management, Professional Learning Management, Employee Evaluation Management as well as Asset Tracking Services with Frontline Education for an amount not to exceed $767,264.67. This will be an annual subscription to be presented to the BOE each fiscal year.
Why: This request renews the contract for the district’s Human Capital Management - Applicant tracking, Absence & Substitute Management, Professional Learning, Employee Evaluation Management as well as Asset Tracking Services.
Details: The Frontline application modules support the DeKalb County School District with the following functions:
1. Human Capital Management - Applicant Tracking and Screening: Allows DCSD to engage with jobseekers and hire quality candidates. Over the past year, the district has averaged approximately 295 applicants per week or more than 15K applicants annually, which are managed through the Frontline Human Capital Management - Applicant Tracking and Screening system.
2. Absence & Substitute Management: Manages employee absences, substitutes, and time and attendance. There are approximately 1,184 substitutes who have the capability to be sourced through the Absence & Substitute Management platform. Substitutes have real-time options on how they would like to be contacted and can set their preferences through the platform.
3. Professional Learning Management: Allows all employees to have access to their professional plans and goals, resources for growth, and self-assessments.
4. Employee Evaluation Management: Provides evidence-based evaluations with tools to assess and measure educator effectiveness while providing constructive feedback. Allows managers/supervisors to conduct transparent, growth-focused evaluations, and link results to professional learning plans and goals.
5. Asset Tracking Services: Holds the district’s device inventory for district assets greater than $5000 in value.
In summary, this agenda is requesting approval to purchase the renewal of all modules. Board Policy DJE allows purchases to be made through contracts formally solicited and obtained through inter-governmental and educational cooperatives, alliances, and consortiums to achieve cost savings and administrative efficiencies based on economies of scale. As a result, the Frontline purchase will utilize the National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance Contract Number 01-102 for Frontline Education.
