This is the first significant update to the MGP Service Provider Statement of Work since the original version
drafted in 2000. Much has changed over the past 23-years, and this Statement of Work better articulates the

Overhead staffing has been consolidated into the direct staffing cost to enable the Service Provider to better
manage member costs.
MGP remains committed to onsite services. A provision has been included that allows no more than 10%
remote work when the Municipality and Consultant agree that work can be completed off-site in
circumstances where the assigned staff and program are meeting or exceeding expectations.
Program staffing expertise definitions have been updated to better represent the skillsets required to manage
