The Florida Department of Health awarded a blanket purchase order contract (C77C48) effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, for environmental health laboratory testing services on an as-needed basis. The contract encompasses microbiological water quality testing, including Total Coliforms and Bacteria analysis utilizing the MMO-Mug methodology (140 units at $10.76 each) and Enterococci bacteria testing for water samples (40 units at $57.00 each). The contract also includes logistical support services, specifically courier delivery services for specimen transport (52 units at $35.00 each). The total contract value is $5,606.40.

The contract structure establishes a framework for the Department of Health to procure laboratory testing and associated logistical services throughout the twelve-month performance period on an as-needed basis rather than requiring large upfront commitments. The unit pricing model allows the state to optimize expenditures based on actual testing demand while maintaining consistent pricing for water quality compliance and monitoring activities. The inclusion of courier services indicates the prime contractor is responsible for specimen collection logistics in addition to providing laboratory analysis capabilities.
