This is an Emergency FEMA Technical Assistance file related to the City of Pasadena Public Health Department's procurement of antibiotics for emergency preparedness. The City of Pasadena seeks a qualified vendor to supply Doxycycline and Ciprofloxacin for a one-time purchase to establish an emergency stockpile for city staff protection following potential exposure to Category A biological agents, including anthrax, plague, or tularemia. The stockpile is designed to ensure rapid antibiotic availability and maintain critical city services by protecting essential employees and their dependents. The procurement must be completed within the city's fiscal year ending June 30, 2027, and PPHD is actively soliciting proposals from all qualified vendors.

The City of Pasadena prioritizes competitive pricing and timely delivery in vendor selection. The procurement is driven by emergency preparedness and public health protection requirements under FEMA guidance, ensuring that essential city operations can continue in the event of a biological threat. PPHD values vendor partnerships demonstrating commitment to quality products and reliable delivery schedules. The solicitation is open to all qualified vendors capable of meeting the specifications and delivery timeline within the fiscal year constraint.
