Explanation
Need: This ordinance is to authorize the Executive Director of the Civil Service Commission to modify and increase the maximum authorized expenditure in the contract with Mount Carmel Health Providers, Inc. for pre-employment physicals and cardiovascular stress testing of public safety recruits in preparation for upcoming Police and Fire Academy classes. Funding is typically added annually or prior to each academy class. The contract’s requirements cannot be awarded through other procurement processes since this is a professional services contract that has already been awarded through the regular Request for Proposals process. The cost for the services provided in this contract have not increased since the initial contract was approved.
Bid Information: In 2019, the City of Columbus Civil Service Commission published a Request for Proposals (RFP 013916) for these services and accepted proposals through December 13, 2019. Four proposals were submitted by the deadline. An evaluation committee reviewed these proposals in accordance with the criteria set forth in the RFP and the Executive Director selected and executed a contract with Mount Carmel Health Providers, Inc. (Ordinance 0440-2020).
Emergency designation: Emergency legislation is requested in order to allow sufficient time for the Department of Public Safety to continue to schedule police and fire candidates for upcoming recruit classes.
Contract Compliance Number: CC005227, expires 10/4/2023.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for these additional services was NOT budgeted in the Civil Service Commission’s 2021 General Fund budget, but once transferred, can be covered by available Object Class 01 funds previously appropriated to the Commission.
