BACKGROUND: |
Animal Services currently purchases the majority of their veterinary supplies from two vendors, Butler Animal Health Holding Co, LLC, d/b/a Henry Schein Animal Health, and MWI Veterinary Supply Company. Our budget requires approximately $185,000 annually for these types of supplies. The veterinary supply industry, like human medical supplies, has become an area of frequent consolidation. The Purchasing Department and Animal Services have been working to resolve the solicitation issues for veterinary supplies for months. We knew we were going to have to bring Purchase Orders before the Board because they would exceed the $50,000 limit. We have had issues with multiple bid solicitations, vendor responses, and purchasing and consolidations of firm. This Change Order will ensure that supplies are available through the end of this Fiscal Year.
A Contract specifically between Escambia County and one firm and nine piggy-back Contracts through Virginia Tech Veterinary School are being presented to the Board on August 1, 2019, for approval. |
