Summary

The commissioners approved a one‑year sole‑source procurement to Hub City Mobile of Hagerstown for WordPress website support and maintenance at $50,676, citing proprietary knowledge and cost advantages of retaining the current vendor.

Washington County commissioners approved a sole‑source procurement July 28 to retain Hub City Mobile of Hagerstown for website technical support and management at a cost of $50,676 for a one‑year period.

Randy Kettner, director of procurement, said the Department of Information Technology and PR rely on Hub City to maintain the county’s WordPress site and that bringing a new vendor up to speed would be difficult. "They built the existing website and everything as is. So bringing someone else in would be difficult at this point," said Josh O'Neil, chief technical officer for Information Systems.

The contract recommendation cites county code sections authorizing sole‑source procurements when only one source meets requirements, and the award is contingent on final contract execution. Commissioners approved the motion by voice vote (5-0).
