City procurement and staff explained that the city’s current electricity supply contract ends with the May meter-read dates and that competitive offers are time-sensitive. “When we get those prices in, the contract has to be executed that day,” procurement staff said during the council discussion, noting the need for immediate execution because energy prices change rapidly.

Procurement described a process in which the city solicited proposals in October, solicited final best-and-final offers in March, and will have its energy consultant review the pricing recommendations and advise city leaders on which option represents the best course of action. Staff said the contract must be signed promptly when the consultant recommends an option because there is no practical delay window to return to council for a subsequent vote.

Council discussed the timing and accepted the explanation. The chair called for the vote; all voted aye and the resolution was adopted.","By voice vote the Salisbury City Council approved Resolution 3390, authorizing the city administrator and director of procurement to sign an electricity supply contract so the city can accept time-sensitive pricing offers.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6598694,"Salisbury awards EMS medical-supplies contract to Boundtree, Henry Schein",393,502000,895000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3031489-37e090f73c42e47614729119d96e6066&start=502&end=895","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3031489-37e090f73c42e47614729119d96e6066/thumbnail_502000.jpg","/articles/6598694/Salisbury/Wicomico-County/Maryland/Salisbury-awards-EMS-medical-supplies-contract-to-Boundtree-Henry-Schein","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598694-6301ee57550c9c5edcd1d2adc431dbbc/orig.mp4?Expires=1771178945&Signature=j-qBGL6wlZ3WBOanKexwl1bh2Za93khQ91JDD09u3ZncMDgzEpAPG5EuoRM5oTZI6s7UXMiCKLXrq2YN8PdQxqBxQeM~8jSqsNCTVPyBdBhq~-TPFux2Nm8DTbNHGj7MOKLa2l1CCXZIJbQYDLF9x48e3O17QRqTtPOS~VeAPsijVbGD5z2IJmGsnxBoXq80oXTXffNnfRZRDKo1Yd3wP4sk19ipkpeSKlyhgSYOTfULXsYuAtszPncWr-tNeRblWmuw3qbPd7O~GUR8nRbT6t4BrOBG~tDv6t6CiB0sc5-P2HvtnG35j~MsUQSusbCcQgiE~2KkJa2D8j-3Cr0seA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Salisbury City Council voted to award bid ITBA-25-111 to two vendors for EMS medical supplies for the Salisbury Fire Department.

The department of procurement presented the recommendation at the council’s April 14 meeting. “The contractors that were awarded contracts were Boundtree Medical and Henry Schein,” procurement staff said during the presentation, noting the award relies on a cooperative piggyback contract (Charles County contract RFP22-42). The procurement presentation described the contract as a cooperative procurement that allows the city to accept prices negotiated by another governmental entity.

The contract effective dates were described as beginning in July and continuing through June 30, 2029, including renewals. Procurement staff told council the city’s estimated annual expenditure for EMS medical supplies is approximately $52,000 and that the city had posted the solicitation on the city procurement portal and state procurement sites as required.

Council offered no substantive questions on the award. The chair called for the vote and the motion passed with the chair voting aye.

The award covers medical, health and safety, surgical and first-aid related equipment, accessories and related services to be provided on an as-needed basis under the cooperative contract terms.","The Salisbury City Council approved an award of bid allowing two vendors to provide EMS medical supplies under a cooperative contract through June 30, 2029; estimated annual spending is roughly $52,000.","actionData","errors"]
