RFI-CC-16-089 - Veterinary Services Notice of Sole Source Award

Summary of Specifications:
The Genesee County Procurement Regulations provides that a procurement may be made without competition when there is a situation where there is the inability to obtain competition. Therefore, a “sole source” procurement is justified if there is only one product or service that can reasonably meet the county’s need and there is only one vendor who will provide the product or service. The Purchasing Department has received a request to make the following sole source procurement. Requesting Agency: Animal Control Product and/or Service to be Purchased: 1 year contract with two 1 year renewals to Veterinary Services Proposed Sole Source Supplier: Dr. Terri McCormack Sole Source Justification: Past attempts to contract with a veterinarian through the RFP process have resulted in a single (from incumbent veterinarian) or no response.

Action to be Taken: No action is required if you agree this proposed purchase is a valid sole source.
