Background and Discussion:
Commissioners Court directed HRRM to launch a Compensation and Pay Equity Project to address the lack of standardization and pay equity in Harris County's compensation program. This request for four positions is essential as follows: 1) Project Manager - oversee all project related activities to ensure timely and on-budget completion, 2) Communications Manager - develop and oversee internal communications through regular messaging relative to the project's progress, 3) Change Management Manager - minimize adverse effects of employee position changes and optimize positive results as identified throughout the project, and 4) Administrative Assistant - provide administrative support for three above mentioned Managers. This request was approved by the ARPA Steering Committee on July 23, 2024.

Expected Impact:
This request will assist with the timely and on-budget completion of the project, communicating regularly to business units and Court regarding the project's progression, and minimizing adverse effects of employee position changes and optimal positive results of changes.
