MEETING MINUTES WCDS Board of Directors’ Executive Committee Meeting

July 7, 2014

Action: Add “Approve Executive Committee FY 2014-2015” to the full BOD’s 8/15/14 agenda for ratification by all members.

5. OPAC Updates / Approvals (Bridwell, Dunn, Lossner) 5.1 Debrief on OPAC’s First Meeting, 6/26/14 – Attachment 5.1 OPAC’s first meeting consisted of education and review of processes. Examples: OPAC

reviewed the current budget, WCDS’ portfolio and new RFC processes. Refer to attached agenda. OPAC Co-Chairs were elected: Francena Martinez/TUL and Kelley Curtis/SOL. Going forward, OPAC will operate at a higher level and do strategic thinking, not handle day-to-day operational items; OPAC should not operate as a blend of IOC and Policy Board. A subgroup of OPAC will revisit the bylaws to ensure they support the new model. OPAC’s membership may need to be elevated, as well as the agenda.

Some tools to support the new model are still under construction through this transition period (e.g., SR communication methods). The OPAC Chairs plan to form a subgroup to develop communication strategies between the Folsom site and Counties.

5.2 Approve OPAC Bylaws – Attachments 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 Item pulled from the agenda / no action taken. The bylaws will be revised and brought back to

the Board for approval (most likely in August).

Action Item: WCDS will revise the OPAC Bylaws as needed and bring back to the BOD for approval.

5.3 Directors’ RFC Review and Approvals of OPAC Recommendations – Attachments 5.3.1, 5.3.2

and 5.3.3

Under the new governance model, incoming changes flow through the Folsom site and OPAC for vetting and are ultimately sent to the Directors with recommendations for approval. Lynn Bridwell summarized the RFCs presented to the BOD Exec Comm as recommended by OPAC. Directors need context around the CRs to evaluate/approve them. The new RFC approval process seems bureaucratic and lengthy. Directors do not believe to be a “value-add” to the approval process of legislative CRs; that can be done at the Folsom site to streamline the process. It was proposed that, in the future, Directors manage budget, SIs and CRs in conflict (competing CRs and/or those in Red status) instead.

MEETING MINUTES WCDS Board of Directors’ Executive Committee Meeting

July 7, 2014

Motion: Barry Zimmerman/VEN motioned to approve the RFCs as recommended by OPAC (see list below). Cheryl Davis/PLA seconded. All in favor. Motion carried.

6. Discussion Item(s):

6.1 Strategic Planning Update – Attachment 6.1 (Hali Reyes)

WCDS is holding weekly planning meetings with First Data and HP to develop strategies to support the SIs for the next three years. The first kick-off meeting was facilitated by Kouji Nakata. The Folsom site has formed three teams to refine each SI and look for quick wins. Approach recommendations to implement the SIs will be brought to the Board for approval in August. Delivery timelines will then be planned.

7. Open Session Adjournment by Chairs (Davis, Zimmerman)

Open session concluded at 3:45pm.

CLOSED SESSION 8. Approval Item(s)

8.1 Approve WCDS’ Hosting of OCAT – Attachment 8.1 (Jo Anne Osborn)

A new statewide tool is being developed in response to AB74 and in support of SB41 – OCAT (Online CalWORKs Appraisal Tool). OCAT is currently being coded and tested; a pilot is set for September 2014 with implementation in January 2015. There is opportunity for WCDS to take leadership and host (house) this tool for the 58 California counties on behalf of CDSS after implementation. Refer to the supplemental documentation that provides background and cost estimate information. Pros and cons if WCDS should host include: Pros • WCDS would have control of the data • Ease of access • Would give WCDS opportunity to lead (a strategic initiative) • Would give WCDS opportunity to build business intelligence and info sharing (a strategic

initiative)

MEETING MINUTES WCDS Board of Directors’ Executive Committee Meeting

July 7, 2014

Cons • More work for WCDS staff (tool oversight) • Funding • Would need to collaborate and communicate with 58 counties (processes could be

streamlined) Directors approved pursuit to host OCAT; WCDS will move forward with dialogue with CDSS and request financial support. WCDS needs to ensure that we have the capacity to assume this role; this effort cannot impact WCDS’ strategic initiatives. Action Item: WCDS to 1) Dialogue with CDSS about the potential for WCDS to host OCAT and request financial support, 2) Evaluate WCDS staffing needs and related costs to lead this effort and 3) bring Hosting OCAT to the full Board in August.

9. Discussion Items:

9.1 Procurement Update (Hali Reyes)

Refer to document provided titled - Negotiation of Replacement CalWIN M&O Contract with HP. Rich Wyde (Attorney) joined the meeting to summarize contract negotiations and answer questions. We are in the last stage of finalizing the contract; WCDS will incorporate the last round of revisions into the contract and send to HP for their 7-day review cycle. The contract will be sent to the State, Feds and Counties for approvals. The approval cycle is expected to be 60 to 90 days. CDSS’ legal counsel has already approved the contract. WCDS will schedule sessions with each County’s counsel to review contract content, with Rich Wyde as lead. Counties’ Boards of Supervisors’ approvals are required by February 2015. Motion: Bruce Wagstaff/SCL motioned to move forward with the contract. Barry Zimmerman/VEN seconded. All in favor. Motion carried.

Supporting Information

On June 11, 2014, the Board of Directors held its annual Strategic Planning Meeting (SPM). The session notes were organized into three strategic categories. Utilizing these notes, WCDS, First Data and HP held a series of internal SPM to further refine and expand on the three strategic initiatives. To refine these concepts, the teams prepared a single summary document for each of the strategic goals that include the strategic goal description, the business value and drivers, the execution strategy, potential projects, actions for the 60-day horizon and any immediate support needed from the Counties. In addition, the document contains a cross-reference to the BOD brainstorming session to ensure the original flip chart statements were retained throughout the entire process. The following documents are provided to support discussion:

• This Approval Document (3.1.1) – Request for validation of the (3) strategic goals. • PowerPoint Presentation (3.1.2) – Provides an overview of the work that has been done since

the June SPM. • Strategic Goal Summary Documents (3.1.3a, b, & c) – Each document is one-page and represents

a high-level summary for each of the strategic goals.

Recommendation

• Approve the (3) Strategic Goals to move forward with the planning and recommendations for projects and delivery.

Following are highlights from the Operations and Policy Advisory Committee’s (OPAC) July 24, 2014 meeting for distribution to the WCDS Board of Directors. Draft notes from Board of Directors Strategic Planning

Hali Reyes shared a copy of the draft notes from the June 11, 2014 WCDS Board of Directors’ Strategic Planning Meeting. The draft notes were shared to provide context for OPAC members in their future responsibilities to support the Strategic goals. Requests for Change One Informational only Change Request was presented to OPAC. WCDS Executive Update Lenecia Miles has returned to WCDS. She will primarily be working with CalHEERS projects. HP Executive Update Chris Van Vlack shared the HP Service Segment approach for building and implementing changes in CalWIN. There are four Service Segments: Covered CalWIN, Core CalWIN, County Direct, and Customer Experience. Hali shared that the goal will be to explore how these segments can help meet future Strategic Initiatives. BI Data Sharing Dan Kalamaras and Don Edwards presented the idea of leveraging what Alameda County did for Business Intelligence warehousing and make it available to all Counties. Alameda County overcame many barriers to stand up their system (for example interfacing data across multiple agencies). Future plan is to develop a Policy Statement for Business Intelligence Data Sharing as a recommendation from OPAC to WCDS Board of Directors. Post OPAC meeting working sessions Two items were discussed following the OPAC meeting adjournment. Operational in nature and outside the newly emerging role and responsibility of OPAC members these items were discussed with those who were able to attend.

1. Communication Plan. Francena Martinez led a brainstorming session. Things to consider and suggested next steps were captured.

2. OPAC By-Laws. In June OPAC ratified draft By-Laws, prior to being submitted to WCDS Board of Directors it was identified the By-Laws needed further changes, specifically to its Purpose in order to support the Board of Directors new Governance. Changes were proposed, WCDS/FD will take the proposed changes and continue refining the By-Laws and bring back to OPAC for approval.

WCDS Board of Directors

Discussion Item Meeting Date: Monday, August 15, 2014 Subject: Contact CalWIN - Evaluate July Coverage and Proposed Adjustments for August

through October 2014 and Design Coverage for Open Enrollment Presenter: Henry Arcangel/WCDS and Hali Reyes/WCDS

Discussion

Review 1) Contact CalWIN’s rotation coverage for extended hours for the month of July and determine if any adjustments need to be made for August through October 2014 and 2) Design coverage for Open Enrollment based on projections.

Supportive Information

Counties implemented a rotation schedule for extended hours during the months of July through October. At the May 9, 2014 BOD meeting, an action item was opened for WCDS to review the July stats with the Board at the August meeting to determine if any adjustments need to be made to ensure adequate coverage for August through October. The action item also included coverage recommendations from WCDS for the Open Enrollment period based on projections. Please review the attached document for statistics and recommendations.

Agenda Item 6.1.1

Page 31: WELFARE CLIENT DATA SYSTEMS BOARD OF DIRECTORS M … BOD Agenda Pkg 2014-0815 OPEN.pdf · WELFARE CLIENT DATA SYSTEMS . BOARD OF DIRECTORS M EETING AGENDA PACKAGE . Friday, August

Contact CalWIN County Rotation Schedule Update

August 8, 2014

Background: On June 11, 2014, the Board of Directors (BOD) requested for WCDS to forward staffing coverage recommendations, including a rotation schedule, for extended hours and holidays based on the results from the CalWIN Rotation Schedule BOD vote on May 30, 2014. The following figures show the WCDS recommendation for staffing coverage and rotation schedule.

County Regions: Region 1 Region 2 Region 3 Region 4

Sacramento* (Large) Santa Clara (Large) Solano (Medium)

Alameda* (Large) Santa Cruz (Small) Sonoma (Medium)

Contra Costa (Large) Orange* (Large)

San Luis Obispo (Small)

Placer (Small) San Francisco (Large)

Ventura (Medium) * Alameda, Orange and Sacramento counties are consistently the top call volume receivers; therefore, these counties are not assigned together. Six (6) CalWIN counties voted to remain open during all extended hours and, therefore, are not assigned into any regions. (Fresno, San Diego, San Mateo, Santa Barbara, Tulare and Yolo) Option 3 – Progressive: Each County would get up to three (3) months off in the next four (4) months:

2014 Region 1 Region 2 Region 3 Region 4 July Work Off Off Off

August Off Work Off Off September Off Off Work Off

October Off Off Off Work November Open Enrollment December Open Enrollment

On July 1, 2014, the county rotation schedule took effect and the participating counties updated their Contact CalWIN Dashboards to reflect the above rotation.

In August, WCDS and the Board will evaluate the July operational stats to ensure adequate coverage for August through October and discuss the regional design for the Open Enrollment period based on projections. This document provides the July results and August projections to assist the Board in the evaluation and discussion around coverage and regional design. WCDS requested, but has not yet received, the November 2014 Open Enrollment projections from the Covered California Service Center.

Assumptions: • Extended hours are defined as Monday through Friday after 5:00 PM and all day Saturday (8:00 AM

– 5:00 PM). • The rotation schedule is from July through October 2014 (4 months). • All counties will be open during Open Enrollment in the months of November and December 2014. • The average call handle time is 32 minutes, call answer time is 30 seconds, and service level is 100%.

July Highlights: • CalWIN SLAs during extended hours were:

o Calls answered in an average of 8 seconds o Abandonment rate of 0.012%.

• The average rollover calls received by Region 1 and non-participating counties during the extended hours were equitable.

• Some of the Region 2, 3 and 4 counties received rollover calls during extended hours, in part because the County elected to stop receiving calls at 5:15 PM. This was quickly resolved when the Project Site contacted the individual counties and suggested to move their closing time to 5:00 PM.

• The last two weeks of July Call Volumes trended down by 50%.
