Commission takes probation and recovery drug-screening RFP under advisement for side-by-side review
Summary
Three bids were received for probation and recovery court drug-screening services; staff and the mayor's office will compare pricing and program panels and report back at the next feasible meeting (August 20 or September), with the commission taking the matter under advisement.
Staff from the probation and recovery department presented an RFP to provide drug-screening services for probation, recovery court and related programs. The current vendor (AverHealth) was invited to re-bid; the presenter said three bids were received and that the proposals varied by pricing and test panels.
The presenter asked for time to prepare a side-by-side pricing and services comparison for commissioners and the mayor's office before a final recommendation. A motion to take the bids under advisement and return at the next meeting was approved by voice vote; staff will attempt to schedule a review at an upcoming August 20 special meeting or return in September if scheduling prevents an earlier review.
