Statement of Work
Objectives
The City continues its journey to fully implement the Total Rewards program leveraging the
recommendations from the Compensation and Career Path Study from Q4 2014.
With the successful launch of the Total Rewards strategy, the City deployed Quarterly Performance
Alignment (QPA) and the new Upward Feedback process by enabling employees to receive and provide
timely and meaningful performance feedback with their respective direct manager. Building on this
success, the City shifted its focus in 2016 to compensation and completed the initial design of a city-
wide job architecture with more than half of the Service Areas. Building on the momentum, the City is
ready to complete the job architecture design and prepare for a city-wide deployment in 2018.
Phase I 2015: Total
Rewards & QPA Launch
Phase II 2016: Job
Architecture Design &
Upward Feedback
Phase III 2017: Job
Architecture Design &
Deployment Planning
Phase IV 2018: Job

Career Management
Design
The objectives of this phase of work include:
1) Creation of new job families that align with the City’s established market benchmarks (public
and private), as well as the future direction of the City in this area.
2) Enable consistency across the City in the hiring, management, deployment, and development of
all positions.
3) Create Career Paths that enable both horizontal and vertical career development.
4) Alignment of incumbent qualifications, scope of responsibility, authority, position structures and
compensations are appropriately aligned across the City.

Market Range and Compensation analysis will focus primarily on positions in each service area
with multiple incumbents with appropriate market comparators; it is estimated that 60% of the
positions in each service area will be directly benchmarked.
The City will assign a Project Manager to this project, who will be the primary day-to-day point
of contact for the Revolution Advisors project team, and will be responsible for helping to
ensure that the project stays on schedule. The Project Manager will engage the proper
resources to support the implementation to include: process, training, communications, system
updates, etc. See Exhibit B for detailed resource assumptions.
RA will create ADA requirements and Functional Requirement Summaries for all roles.
The City will do 20% of the job level mapping and impact analysis work.
The City will conduct all calibration sessions – RA to provide support and to create materials.
The City will be responsible for final employee mapping decisions.
The City will do 25% of the market pricing for ~200 roles and incur fees associated with market
surveys.
Revolution Advisors will have periodic access to City Leadership throughout the project for the
purpose of data gathering, feedback, decision making, including key deliverable review.
The City will provide administrative support for scheduling meetings, including appropriate
meeting facilities.
Communication and training materials will be developed and delivered by the City to all
appropriate employees and external community stakeholders with enabling support from
Revolution Advisors.
Should any of these assumptions prove not to be true, the project timeline and/or fees may be
impacted.
