Request for approval of a renewal option with The Segal Company (Southeast), Inc. dba Segal for benefits consulting services for Harris County for the period of June 28, 2024 - June 27, 2025 at a cost of $600,000 (210443), MWDBE Contracted Goal: 20%, MWDBE Current Participation: 25%.

Background and Discussion:
The Office of Human Resources & Risk Management recommends renewal of the benefits consulting services provided by The Segal Company for the period of June 28, 2024 - June 27, 2025, at the same terms and conditions.
Expected Impact:
Continued assistance in controlling medical plan costs by providing industry expertise; objective, data-driven recommendations; data analysis and benchmarking; and strategic solutions for cost-saving results. In addition, Segal will continue to assist in the RFP process for Harris County’s health and related benefit programs (medical/pharmacy, dental, vision, life/AD&D and LTD, etc.) to cultivate a dynamic, cost-effective benefits package.
Alternative Options:
If Commissioners Court does not approve this contract renewal, Human Resources & Risk Management would have to continue to provide these consultative services internally, but not likely at the same level as the firm.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation
_ Flooding
_ Environment
X_ Governance and Customer Service
