| BACKGROUND: |
In its meeting held October 4, 2018, the Board authorized issuance of a blanket purchase order to Ward International, LLC, in the amount of $425,000, for repair and maintenance of Public Safety's ambulance fleet for Fiscal Year 2018-2019. Upon a review of the Purchase Order, it has been determined that an additional $90,000 is projected to be required to maintain the ambulance fleet through the end of the Fiscal Year. The Change Order request is due to an unforeseen increase in major engine component failures, which has contributed to additional repairs. This year EMS has replaced a total of four engines and one transmission with a total unexpected cost of $96,737.45.
Ward International, LLC, is one of the preferred vendors in the Pensacola area to service the fleet of Horton Ambulances that would not void any warranty associated with the ambulances. |
