The vehicle covers a range of medical and rescue-related services, including Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulance services. Specifically designed for campus events, the contract enables standby ambulance services with clear pricing structures: BLS services at $275.00 per hour per crew and ALS services at $350.00 per hour per crew. The scope encompasses medical evacuation, emergency response, and specialized safety and rescue vehicle support across various event types and campus environments.

The contract is awarded to Bell Ambulance, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and operates from May 20, 2022, through May 19, 2023, with potential automatic renewals extending the contract through May 19, 2027.
