This is a Contractor Report Card attachment for a Request for Proposals issued by Tuolumne County, California, through its Health and Human Services Agency, Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Agency. The RFP seeks qualified organizations to provide personnel and management services to operate the Tuolumne County Ambulance Service (TCAS), which delivers ground ambulance services across the county. The County intends to award a single contract to a successful applicant to operate TCAS in accordance with performance standards and specifications outlined in the RFP. The service operates under California Health and Safety Code Section 1797.200 et seq., which authorizes the County to plan and implement the EMS system.

The RFP contains specific employment restrictions applicable to prospective contractors. CalPERS-retired employees are prohibited from participating if their proposed work is the same or similar to work they performed as active employees or work currently performed by active county employees. Current County employees are prohibited from contracting with the County while maintaining active employment status and must separate from County employment prior to contract award. Additionally, no County time or resources may be used in preparing responses to the RFP. These restrictions ensure compliance with California and federal employment laws governing retirement system participation and conflict-of-interest provisions.
