Invitation for Bid (IFB) for Type-3 Ambulance (repost)

REPOST - Wilson Community College is seeking to purchase a new EMS unit to replace its current 2008 Chevrolet TYPE III EMS unit which has over 180,000 miles and has been out of service since December 2024 due to a breakdown.

The purchase of this unit will allow Wilson Community College to meet NCOEMS regulations by providing hands-on driving training and operational training in the EMS unit in simulated settings. This purchase will address the colleges’ needs to provide the required NCOEMS training and better prepare students for the workforce. The intent of this solicitation is to award an Agency Contract
