Award - Medical Laboratory Testing Services: Award to second low bidder - Physicians Preferred Laboratory (PPL) -- $185,548.17/year This item awards a contract to provide medical laboratory testing services to the City of Amarillo and ratifies the provisions of these services by PPL during the contract termination process with the current provider.  The original low bidder on this contract was Clinical Pathology Laboratory (CPL), who was awarded the contract on January 20, 2015.  CPL has since failed to perform the contract per the specifications and their contract was terminated after the required opportunity to cure was offered.  The second low bidder for these services was Physicians Preferred Laboratory, who has agreed to perform the needed services per their original bid.   These services are used by the City Public Health Department, CityCare Clinic, Fire Department, Risk Management Department and the City Health Plan throughout the year to provide needed medical tests to patients, prospective employees, health plan members, promotional and pre-employment screenings and others.  The proposed contract is on the same terms as the prior contract with a one-year base term and up to four one-year extensions upon mutual consent.  Funding for this contract is available in each department's approved FY 2014/2015 Operation Budgets.
