The purpose of this amendment is to post RFQ questions and answers.

36C26126Q0728

1. Does the Fresno pharmacy serve as the consolidation point for controlled substance destruction from the outlying outpatient clinics, or is the scope limited to substances originating at the main pharmacy only? Main Pharmacy only. We do not have a working Pharmacy’s at our Outpatient Clinics.

2. Is historical volume data available for the past one to three years, by weight or by item count? No that information is not available at this time.

3. Approximately what percentage of the volume is solids versus liquids? I would say about 85% solids and 15% liquids.

4. Is current inventory data maintained electronically, or is the contractor expected to perform the full inventory on-site at each pickup? The current inventory is on file, and we also have it on paper as our destruction sheets. As each controlled substance is inventoried, the destruction document is signed by the vendor, me and our 3rd person that is assigned. After the inventory is completed and documented, we have the vendor, me and the 3rd person sign the destruction sheet document with all destruction numbers listed.

We keep that document, the destructions sheets, vendors inventory document that they print and provide before leaving the premises for our monthly in-house controlled substance inspection.

Please see attached pdf Scan 179.

5. On average, how much time should a technician plan to be on-site per visit, and roughly how many items are processed per pickup? The process can take between 1 to 2 hours depending on the volume and the speed of the entries into the vendor’s computer. The volume could be as low as 25 items and as high as 75 items.

6. Will pharmacy personnel provide inventory information in advance or is the contractor responsible for the complete on-site inventory process? Everything will be done on-site.
