The procurement is for an initial one-year contract with options to renew for four additional one-year periods. Proposals will be received until 11:00 a.m. on November 13, 2025, at the Livingston County Government Center. The evaluation criteria will assess proposals based on scope of work (35 points), cost (30 points), staff qualifications (30 points), and quality assurance program (5 points). Interested vendors must register with Ashley Scutt by emailing ashleyscutt@livingstoncountyny.gov or calling (585) 243-7040 to ensure receipt of any potential addendums.
