HR looked at two vendors for performance review software. NeoGov was too pricey at $45,000; UKG would run about $1,900 a year plus a $2,500-$7,000 setup fee, but the county first needs to define its competencies and workflow.

The county's policy for evaluating employees is vague and unevenly enforced — some departments do evaluations, some don't. HR is pricing software options but says real enforcement will require either software or staff the county doesn't currently have. A small working group of legislators will take this up with HR next month.
