ISTT and BK Technology bids reviewed; waste-service bidders identified

Simpson County Fiscal Court · April 21, 2026

Summary

Fiscal Court reviewed two IT service bids (ISTT at roughly $6,150/month and BK Technology at $7,398/month) and discussed hiring in-house IT staff; court also noted waste-service bids from Blue Moon, Impact Waste Services, Scott Waste and Republic Service pending city review.

The court reviewed competing IT-service proposals. ISTT, the county's incumbent on-call vendor, proposed $6,150 per month (about $73,800 annually plus web hosting), while BK Technology proposed $7,398 per month (roughly $89,976 annually plus hosting). Judge Barnes urged the court to consider whether to continue contracting externally or hire one or two in-house IT staff for continuous, day-to-day monitoring rather than patch work.

Members also discussed waste-service bidding and heard the names of firms that submitted proposals — Blue Moon, Impact Waste Services, Scott Waste and Republic Service — and agreed to prepare questions for the companies after the City conducts its meeting on April 27. County officials said the convenience center would continue operating as it does now during any vendor transition.
