This document is a Contract Amendment (Amendment Number 3) for a Recruitment Services contract between the State of North Dakota, acting through its Office of Management and Budget, State Procurement Office (STATE), and Effertz Executive Search & Management (formerly Olson Effertz Lobbying & Consulting LLC), referred to as the CONTRACTOR.

The contract, which originally commenced on February 27, 2020, has been amended to update insurance requirements pursuant to 2021 House Bill 1057, increasing statutory liability caps. The contract includes three renewal options of twelve months each and has previously been renewed twice. The current amendment extends the contract expiration date to December 31, 2024, with the ability to extend for an additional twelve months. Additionally, the amendment reflects a contract assignment where Effertz Executive Search & Management will assume all rights and duties from Olson Effertz Lobbying & Consulting LLC, effective January 1, 2024. The insurance modifications include maintaining commercial general liability coverage with a $2,000,000 per occurrence limit and employer's liability insurance, while removing automobile liability insurance requirements.
