19. Approve Piggyback Purchase of Three Emergency Medical Services Ambulances

Lee Board of County Commissioners · 2026-05-05 · agenda_item

Lee County is planning to purchase three new emergency medical service ambulances. This purchase will use a piggyback contract with Emergency Tactical Rescue Vehicles (ETR L.L.C.) through the Florida Sheriffs Association Contract. The total cost for the three ambulances is $1,117,818.00, plus tag and title fees. This purchase is part of a fleet replacement plan to ensure continued emergency medical services. The vendor expects to deliver the ambulances in the fall, potentially adding them to an existing build order if chassis are available. This project involves the procurement and delivery of specialized vehicles, with potential for installation of county-provided equipment. Local businesses that supply specialized vehicle components, emergency equipment, or installation services may find opportunities. Engaging early could provide an advantage as the county finalizes equipment needs and installation plans.
