Explanation
BACKGROUND: Columbus Public Health (CPH) has a need to contract for security officer services for their facility at 240 Parsons Avenue. The purpose of this legislation is to authorize the Board of Health to enter into a $382,000 contract with Ohio Support Services Corp., for security services for the period March 1, 2019, to February 29, 2020.
A Request for Proposal (RFP), # SA005641 "Security Officer Services at 240 Parsons Avenue," was publicly posted to the City of Columbus Vendor Services website from October 29, 2014 until November 12, 2014. All 59 companies registered with the City of Columbus under commodity code 99046 (Guard and Security Services) were notified of the RFP. A total of seven companies submitted responses to the RFP. In conjunction with the professional consulting firm of Security Risk Management Consultants, the CPH evaluation committee unanimously recommended awarding the contract to Ohio Support Services Corp., as the lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidder under the provisions of City Code, Chapter 329.
