Information

Request/Subject

Request approval to advertise Invitation for Bids No. 040320 for the provision of autopsy transport services.

Background Information

Currently the funeral homes are used to transport deceased persons from their location to the location where the autopsy will be performed. There are no current contracts in place identifying pricing and availability. In order to secure the service when needed it is the desire of the County to enter into service contracts that provide specific costs, and are deemed in the best interest of the County.

Evaluation

The transport service is necessary and required to transport deceased persons when an autopsy is necessary as determined by the County Attorney. Negotiated contracts need to be in place to secure pricing for a specified period of time.

Conclusion

It is in the best interest of the County to advertise for autopsy transport services as required.

Recommendation

Staff recommends approval.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to authorize the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 040320 for the provision of autopsy transport services. (Mary Springer)
