Goodbye Schaefer?

[aquabear]

Oy, make one little joke about a desire to cut commute time in half (since I live in Schaefer's EOA)..........Oh and about that Torrance RFP: http://torrance.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=8&clip_id=12927

My bad, I wasn't following it that closely. But I'm sure that contract is super secure considering they are buying RA's now.

EOA 3 is pretty large, extending from La Canada to Claremont. I wonder if it has to do with the county requiring stair chairs and power gurneys for all ambulances. Schaefer isn't shelling out that money.

Monrovia is becoming its own EOA (2). Maybe they'll try to keep just that.

Heard today that Schaefer did not bid on the Pomona contract...

Any thoughts?

*if to confidential, Admins please feel free to lock the post.

How would anyone know if Schaefer bid on Pomona if the deadline for turning in the Proposal isn't until May 12th. In fact I even heard it was extended until June...Keep the rumors flying....

Enough rumors. It is all speculation until the bids are awarded later this year. Here is some info I gathered

-There will be 9 EOA's including Monrovia, Compton, and Redondo Beach Fire recieving their own EOA's in addition to Current EOA's. . -Bids due May 12th.
-Current EOA contracts extended until December 31, 2016.

These are some main points I gathered, Feel free to read in detail for yourself

-source : Google search: "LA County ambulance rfp" it will be the top result.
Sorry I can't post the link since im new.

I thought the bids were due 5/4?

We had a thread that was just 911 bid rumors/ speculation. There's no harm in it and it's no different than when you run into other crews and start jaw jacking with them.

The general consensus for a while now has been that Schaefer will lose their EOA. I find it hard to believe that they can compete with Care/Falck and AMR. Especially after watching Care smash all of OC.
