Additionally, email notifications were sent <br /> to three local providers informing them of the on-line posting. Three proposals were <br /> received; San Francisco Paramedic Association, National College of Technical <br /> Instruction, and CPR Fast. CPR Fast's proposal arrived after the posted deadline for <br /> submittal and, as such, was not considered. Findings revealed that San Francisco <br /> Paramedic Association was best prepared to provide this service. The contract for <br /> services will be for two years from the date of signing, with an option to extend for one <br /> term. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> LPFD is recommending that San Francisco Paramedic Association be awarded the <br /> contract to provide continuing education services for EMTs and Paramedics. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> For each FY 11/12 and 12/13, a total of $50,000 has been budgeted for class fees for <br /> Paramedics which more than covers the anticipated costs of the program. Total costs for <br /> the contract shall not exceed $31,850 for each fiscal year. <br />
