Advantages of Pre-Event or Standby Contracts for Emergency Services
“Low-price selection” should not be the only determining factor in choosing a contractor. Qualifications, technical abilities, and bonding capacity are all beneficial factors to consider while choosing a reliable contractor. A pre-selected contractor has the advantage of becoming familiar with the needs of the jurisdiction in times of peace. Standby contracts allow jurisdictions to prepare for disasters in advance with the same personnel who will be there when disaster strikes.
