Local 1000’s History of Fighting Outsourcing • Contract challenges at the State Personnel Board (custodial, IT and many others) • Contract reviews began in 2008, trainings in 2009 • 6 Research Dept reports on outsourcing since 2007 • Lobbying our transparency bills Eng AB 2603, AB 756, AB 72 and Blumenfield AB 2494, AB 740 (2008-present)
Outsourcing Campaign Project Statement • “By RTSC 2012, decrease outsourcing by disclosing the real costs, lack of value and illegal nature of contracts. Accomplish this through an integrated campaign of member engagement and community outreach utilizing legislative, legal and media strategies.”
Campaign Goals • Fighting outsourcing in member-led watchdog groups at 10 largest outsourcing Departments • Overall plan builds 10-30 leaders • Develop 30 to 90 additional activists in 10 largest outsourcing Departments (building on current network structures) • Train 70 more activists to review state contracts for illegal outsourcing (currently 90 trained activists)
Campaign Goals (cont’d) • Cut contracting in 2 annual budgets for a total of $200 to $400 million in outsourcing savings • Enact two pieces of legislation that create greater transparency about state spending and that closes a loophole on Departments’ ability to keep contracting out work after Union wins at SPB. • Increase membership and COPE
Campaign Elements • Assessment phase • Devise and implement strategies for 3 vendors and 10 departments • Member engagement • Community coalitions, legislative, legal and mediastrategies • Education and training
Timelines • Last week of April 2011 – Internal kickoff of campaign • By August 2011– External kickoff with public scrutiny of practices of three vendors • Between September 2011 through August 2012 – Begin phased roll-out of ten Department Groups and five 14. 8 committees • Quarterly reports of campaign progress • Annual reviews in time for RTSC
