Two (2) Year Contract - EMS Services

The Jefferson Parish Government is soliciting a two-year contract for the provision of emergency medical services (EMS) for the Westbank Carnival Parades during 2027 and 2028. The scope of work requires the vendor to provide two ambulances with two crews and two ALS ASAP (Polaris) carts with two crews for each event. Each unit must be staffed by two providers, with at least one provider operating at the ALS skilled paramedic level. Crews are required to arrive one hour before the scheduled parade, with an approximate coverage duration of six hours per event, and will be released by the EMS parade commander once crowds have dispersed. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. A critical requirement for award is strict insurance compliance with Jefferson Parish Resolution No. 136353 or No. 141125; the apparent low bidder must provide final insurance certificates within ten calendar days of the bid opening or risk rejection. All services must be performed with integrity and good faith, meeting or exceeding industry quality standards. Invoicing must be detailed, itemized, and submitted directly to the Department of Citizens Affairs for payment.
